Customers dealing with massive hikes in their energy bills have inundated the energy regulator with complaints.

The Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) has said it received 2,800 'contacts' from customers in the first three months of the year. That is 52% more than in the last quarter of 2021 and 78% more than in the first three months of 2021.
