The UK energy crisis - top tips to keep bills down

The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Consumer Affairs Correspondent, Colletta Smith, helps a family save Β£150 on their energy bills.

The biggest ever increase to the energy price cap has come into force for anyone on a Standard Variable Tariff, adding an extra Β£139 to the average bill.

As customers, there's very little we can do about it. Shopping around doesn't help much at the moment, in fact some fixed deals are more expensive.

But not to be downhearted, in this episode of 5 Minutes On - the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Consumer Affairs Correspondent Colletta Smith set about the challenge of trying to find energy savings in one family home - in an attempt to beat the price cap.
