MoneySavingExpert was founded by Martin Lewis in 2003 and has become the UK’s most trusted source of personal finance guidance. The weekly email cuts through the noise on everything from energy tariffs and credit cards to holiday money and supermarket deals. It’s less about investing and more about not getting ripped off — practical, actionable advice for everyday financial decisions.
What to Expect
Each issue is packed with time-sensitive deals, explainers on rights you didn’t know you had, and step-by-step guides to switching, claiming, or saving. The tone is blunt and consumer-first — Martin Lewis has built his reputation on calling out bad deals and championing the reader against companies.
Who It’s For
Anyone in the UK who wants to spend less and keep more. Especially useful during big financial decisions — switching energy provider, getting a mortgage, or sorting out a pension. The readership spans all ages, but the newsletter is particularly valued by people who want to feel confident making financial choices without hiring an adviser.
