Episode description

New data shows more than 700,000 households across Great Britain have missed out on £300 million worth of support with their energy bills. The government said in February 900,000 households were eligible to apply for a one-off £400 payment because they did not have an energy supplier that would apply it automatically. The government said it had spent more than £50m 'supporting households without a domestic energy supplier', but this data suggests just over £300 million of the possible £360 million in Great Britain had not been claimed before the deadline.

The big high street banks have been told to be more open with their customers about savings rates - what will that mean in practice?

And could Artificial Intelligence transform how banks decide whether to lend us money?
