    Price cap to increase by £693 from April

    Record increase in global gas prices sees energy price cap rise of 54% Ofgem knows this rise will be extremely worrying for many people Customers struggling to pay their energy bill should contact their supplier to access the help available

    The energy price cap will increase from 1 April for approximately 22 million customers. Those on default tariffs paying by direct debit will see an increase of £693 from £1,277 to £1,971 per year (difference due to rounding). Prepayment customers will see an increase of £708 from £1,309 to £2,017.

    The increase is driven by a record rise in global gas prices over the last 6 months, with wholesale prices quadrupling in the last year.

          If you think the gas and electric increase is bad there are worse increases that have taken people by surprise. After the government changed the rules on what was council tax benefit (now council tax reduction).

          My council tax payments increased by over 300%. From about £25 to over £80 per month. Nearly all disabled people who can't work will be hit by this change.
