Several British energy websites have crashed as customers rush to submit meter readings before the price jump which is set to take place on April 1.
The websites, including those of energy firms E.ON, Scottish Power, British Gas, and SSE, were affected after experts urged households to submit meter readings to their gas and electricity suppliers on March 31 to show exactly how much energy they have used ahead of the price hike so as to prevent firms from overcharging them.
