From April 1, millions of people will face increases to their broadband, mobile, water and council tax bills.
Households are facing an onslaught of price hikes that could leave the average family hundreds of pounds a year worse off.
Matthew Upton, director of policy at Citizens Advice, said: “Millions of people will now have to stomach inflation-busting price hikes on their mobile and broadband contracts, totalling an average of £90 more a year. “When the regulator does act, it must deal with this once and for all by banning any future mid-contract price hikes.”
Household finances app Nous.co has calculated that a typical family will be £682.70 a year worse off as a result of the increases. “And we are not just talking about those on lower incomes. Even dual income families with above average earnings will now be drawn into the struggle to afford to live.”
