Call You and Yours: Energy prices

As the people who run the big six energy firms go before MPs to explain the recent price rises, we want to know, what would you ask them? Email youandyours@bbc.co.uk, #youandyours.

As the people who run the big six energy firms go before MPs to explain the recent price rises, we want to know what would you ask? We'll speak to one of the MPs who'll be asking the questions.

The average price of gas and electricity paid by UK households has risen by around 41% since 2007. So, how is the rising cost of heating your home affecting you? If you are struggling - tell us what it's really like.

Do you think we pay too much for energy or perhaps just like former energy minister Chris Huhne you think the energy companies are being unfairly blamed for forces beyond their control.

Ed Miliband wants to enforce an 18 month price freeze on bills, John Major proposed a windfall tax on profits and the government is looking at removing some green levies from your bills. We want your views on these and other ways the energy market could be reformed.
