Martin Lewis wants to change something that makes people very angry

Martin Lewis says something makes a lot of people very angry.

Martin Lewis wants to change something in the UK that makes people very angry. He talked to politicians about this issue. He said it makes up most of the complaints he gets about energy.

He compared it to a book store that charges people to enter, not just to buy books. Martin Lewis does not like the daily charge that energy customers have to pay.

Martin Lewis said that people have to pay a lot of money each year for gas and electricity, even if they do not use them. This makes people very angry because it does not matter if they use less energy, they still have to pay the daily charge.

Martin Lewis was at a hearing where he talked about the daily charge.

He explained the charge by comparing it to a book store. He said that book stores do not charge people to enter, only to buy books.

He asked why energy companies charge a daily fee and a fee for the energy used. He does not think this is fair.

The energy regulator says the daily charge is used to pay for the costs of providing energy. The average daily charge for electricity is 57.2p and for gas is 29.1p.

Martin Lewis said that the system needs to change to help people who are struggling. He wants to make their lives easier.

Instead of changing the system, a new plan is coming that he does not think will work. This plan has not started yet.

He said that a change could be made to help people. He had talked to the energy regulator about it.

He wanted people who are on the price cap to be automatically switched to the best option for them. But this was stopped and a different plan was made.

He said that the new plan does not help people who are struggling because they do not switch energy providers. The price cap was meant to protect them.

The energy regulator's website says that the daily charge depends on where you live.

You can find out more about the daily charge and energy prices on the energy regulator's website. You can also read the full discussion at the hearing.
