The hideous 80% increase in the energy price cap has, thankfully, been cancelled, and replaced by a new two-year energy price guarantee that'll take the typical bill to £2,500 a year. But everyone will still get £400 off their bills from October – though how this will work depends on how you pay for your gas and electricity. With so much happening with energy at the moment, we want you to tell us how you pay for your bills, as this'll help us with the campaigning work we're doing.

During the pandemic we saw a decline in the use of cash, with people favouring other methods of payment, such as contactless. However, it seems more people are turning back to cash as a way to keep tighter control of their spending in the wake of the cost of living crisis, according to new research from the Post Office. We want to find out how cashless our society is now, and whether people are using cash more or less than they were six months ago.

(If you want to find out how to check your report, see our Credit Reports guide).
