Energy fixes are back! | Best ISAs for 2026/7 | Council Tax Change
About this episode
Martin discusses energy bills, ISA options for the new tax year, and changes in council tax debt collection.
Energy bills are in the news and this may be a crucial moment. In this podcast Martin explains the Energy Price Cap, and the firms offering fixes cheaper than the Price Cap. It’s a new tax year, and that means all UK adults have a new £20,000 tax-free ISA allowance to use. Martin runs through your options of where to put your money. Martin explains why a change on council tax debt collection which will mean vulnerable people will have more time and support to settle their outstanding council tax bills has put him in a good mood.
