Elise Melville, energy expert at Uswitch.com, comments: “A predicted 1% fall in the October price cap follows weeks of volatility in wholesale costs linked to the tensions in the Middle East.
“Remember that these are just predictions, and the real price cap could be higher or lower than this latest forecast.
“Households don’t have to wait to start making savings on their energy bills. There are already more than ten fixed deals on the market cheaper than the predicted October rates.*”
