Martin Lewis has issued a warning to anyone who pays their energy bill by direct debit.

Martin said: "They have weaknesses in their processes, so there is action happening on direct debits.
"We would expect direct debits to go up - if it has gone up by more than 100%, they are being asked to review it. So if it is you, and yours has gone up by more than 100%, the company should be reviewing it."
The financial expert also shared how an energy rebate is coming. The help comes just after he warned of a "catastrophic" future that will "cost lives".
Martin said the energy cap is predicted to rise 65% in October, taking typical bills to £3,240 a year. He added: "The latest prediction for October is up 65% from where we are now, taking a typical bill to £3244.
"It will then rise again by 4% in January to £3,300 and probably start to drop but only by 5% next April."
