Money saving expert Martin Lewis has warned customers of a "huge" price hike for broadband and mobile services this April.

In an email to subscribers, Martin Lewis said, "My heart sank last Wednesday when the latest 10.5% CPI inflation was announced." Broadband and mobile companies base their price increases on this number.
