AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Energy Support: Ofgem says millions of households could still get a £150 Warm Home Discount boost this winter, but the scheme is currently closed and reopens in October 2026—check eligibility and contact your supplier if you’re in arrears. Household Protections: Ofgem also reminds customers in energy debt that they can ask for fair treatment, clearer bills, and support like the Priority Services Register, plus wider grants. Energy Bills & Water: Government-backed plans would let water firms charge more during droughts via “surge pricing” tied to scarcity, likely requiring smart meters. Scams & Safety: Dudley Council warns of fake GoFundMe pages after the Stourbridge fire—donate only via official channels; Amazon and eBay also remove disposable BBQ listings after a ban. Food & Product Recalls: The FSA flags “do not eat” items and a wider recall list hitting retailers including Tesco, Waitrose, Home Bargains, Asda, Morrisons, B&Q, Next and Amazon—check what you bought. Travel Shock: Firefly Holidays has entered liquidation and stopped arranging trips. Retail & Fashion: M&S teams up with streetwear label Aries for a St Michael capsule collection, with prices from £10 to £120. Tech & Finance: HMRC confirms Winter Fuel Payment recovery rules from 2025/26, with deductions via tax code for many PAYE customers.
