Counterfeit, Phones and Broadband

What are the health and safety dangers in buying counterfeit goods, are you paying too much for your mobile? Linda visits the Pensioners Parliament to talk about electric and gas.

Counterfeit goods - they may be cheap but might be bad for your health, bad for economic growth and may even be funding organised crime. We discuss how to spot a fake with Sharon Muldoon of Trading Standards. Hands up who's still paying for a mobile phone handset you already own? You and millions of others could be paying as much at Β£500m extra and are you paying more than you need to for gas and electricity? Switch more, pay less, says the regulator. The Pensioners Parliament convened in the Europa Hotel this week, discussing everything from health and social care, isolation and loneliness and age discrimination in goods and services. Linda attended, making sure older people aren't missing out on the best deal for gas and electricity.
