Landmark moment for cohabiting couples?
Could greater rights for unmarried couples be on the cards? Prepayment meter energy price cap, and should a bank have done more to protect a couple defrauded by criminals?

Ofgem has announced details of a price cap for customers on prepayment meters. How will it work in practise?
