Another British Gas Price Rise

It's in the news once again (the second time in the space of 4 months)


British Gas is to increase prices for 3.5 million customers with another 3.8% increase in its standard variable tariff (SVT) from 1 October. This is in addition to the 5% price rise they added in April.
