2019

We've had a series of worrying reports that cold callers have turned up at homes claiming they are from MoneySavingExpert.com and can save people money on their energy bills. So once again we're warning everyone – MoneySavingExpert NEVER cold calls, and these people are NOTHING to do with us.

Big six energy supplier SSE has agreed to pay £700,000 to Ofgem after missing its 2018 targets for installing smart meters. 

The energy price cap will rise by 10% in April, regulator Ofgem has revealed – but it's NOT the maximum anyone will pay, warns Martin Lewis.

Bank customers who are tricked into transferring cash to fraudsters will have more protection from the end of May. 

The longest 0% balance transfer deals have dropped to 29 months – the shortest length in more than five years and down from a peak of 43 months almost two years ago. 

SSE has been appointed by energy regulator Ofgem to take on Brilliant Energy's 17,000 domestic customers.

Shell Energy is set to refund and compensate around 9,000 customers after it was found to have overcharged on tariffs protected by energy regulator Ofgem's price cap.

Coventry Building Society has launched a market-leading cash ISA paying 1.5% – which puts it on par with similar top easy-access savings accounts.

Octopus Energy will take on all 300,000 customers supplied by Co-op Energy, GB Energy and Flow Energy after a buyout was agreed – if you're with one of these firms, here's what you need to know.

Big six supplier E.on has become the first energy provider to reveal its prices under the new cap on standard tariffs, reducing bills by a typical £77/year from October – just £2/year under the new level. But don't be fooled, most could still save £100s/year by switching.
