A mum has shared how she slashed her heating bill from £95 to £12 thanks to a tip from Money Saving Expert's Martin Lewis.

It comes as millions of households will see their energy bills skyrocket from next month.

Martin Lewis has previously suggested that people shouldn't leave their heating on low all day to lower their monthly outgoings, Manchester Evening News reports.

He says that having the heating on only when it is needed is best in the long run.

Martin said: "According to experts at the Energy Saving Trust, the idea it's cheaper to leave the heating on low all day is a myth.

"They're clear that having the heating on only when you need it is, in the long run, the best way to save energy, and therefore money.

"A timer's best as your thermostat turns your heating on and off to keep your home at the temperature you set).

"The key thing to understand here is that it's all about the total amount of energy required to heat your home.

"It's a given that a certain amount of energy is constantly leaking out of your home (how much will depend on how good your insulation is).

"The Energy Saving Trust says if you're keeping the heating on all day you're losing energy all day, so it's better to heat your home only when you need it."

Carolann Culshaw said she slashed her bill by following Martin's suggestion.

She says she now turns on the heating as and when she needs it and it has helped cut her bill from £95 to £12.

She explained: "I stopped having my heating on a constant 18c temp and boosting it every now and then and just turned it off completely and only turn it on as and when needed.

"Dec and Jan bills were over £90 for Gas alone. Since turning heating off fully my bill in Feb was only around £45 so saved half the price.


"So far this month my bill is £12. As the weather gets warmer I won't be needing the heating on at all but some people say having the house a certain temp all the time (which is normally around 18c) can save you money.


"In my experience so far it made my bill double what I would have been using."


It comes as millions of households will see their energy bills hiked by almost £700 from this April, regulator Ofgem has confirmed.


Those on default tariffs paying by direct debit will see an increase of £693 from £1,277 to £1,971 from April 1 - an eye-watering rise of around 54%.
