In response to the mounting pressure to address the issue of energy rationing amongst the elderly, Ann Robinson, Director of Consumer Policy at Uswitch.com, says: “Forecasters are warning that we’re headed for a cold snap, yet people are still feeling forced to choose between their health and being able to afford energy. It’s totally unacceptable that sky-high bills are having this effect on the most vulnerable in society.

“With the global oil surplus expected to continue well into 2016, suppliers must stop dragging their heels and pass on bill reductions which accurately reflects the substantial drop in wholesale prices.”
