For Ofgem to freeze the price cap now

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Ofgem to freeze the price cap and review this at a future date to avoid making cost of living crisis worse.
As people are struggling to pay basic costs. Energy suppliers are making profits so there should be no need, in the current climate, to increase the price cap any further.
