One of the campaigners said their bills had rocketed with a four-fold increase in less than two years.“Every time we moved provider, they went bust.“Consumer protection has gone out the window. Energy companies have taken complete control. “You can't complain about it, there's no one to listen. Even if you do get through to someone, they don't know what's happening."
