Plummeting temperatures set to increase fuel bills

Fuel bills look set to increase by as much as ten per cent this month, due to the freezing temperatures experienced at the start of the year.

Research carried out by moneysupermarket.com found that as much as £123 could be added to fuel bills at the end of this month.

For a customer using a standard tariff and paying by cash and cheque, they could see the bill that hits their mat this month costing £493.

Scott Byrom, utilities manager at moneysupermarket.com, said: "I expect many households will see a larger increase to their bills so for those looking to save cash on their energy outgoings I would advise shopping."

Last month, moneysupermarket.com estimated that gas firms owe their customers a combined total of £454 million, or £89 each.

However, almost two million households are in debt with their supplier, with them each owing their provider an average of £151.
