Millions of British Gas customers will have their energy bills hiked by 25pc this winter, with some seeing a rise of up to 35pc, as the company grapples with the rising cost of energy in the UK.
Soaring wholesale energy prices means that between 8.5m and 9m British Gas customers will see large increases in their bills over the next six months.
