British Gas customers "need to turn anger into action" says MSE after second price hike this year

On the announcement that British Gas will raise its prices for the second time this year, Guy Anker, deputy editor of MoneySavingExpert.com, said: "Millions will rightly be furious with British Gas when they hear of yet another price hike. But its customers need to turn that anger into action.

"For someone with typical use, those on British Gas’s standard tariffs can save £100s a year by ditching and switching, and many firms that are far cheaper have vastly better customer service ratings.

"So the message is plain. If you do nothing you WILL be taken advantage of."
