A new survey by Which? for its annual Consumers in Scotland report has identified households’ growing concerns about the rising cost of living, soaring energy bills and disparities in broadband speeds across the country.
Cash-strapped Scots will have to fork out about £1,100 extra a year on staying warm and eating, it has been suggested, as the new survey discovered nearly half are already using their heating less to help make ends meet.
Which? has estimated that Scots will spend an extra £21.13 per week on food and energy next month compared with March 2020 - adding about £1,100 extra per year to household bills.
