Who is Martin Lewis?

Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis is an award winning TV & radio presenter, newspaper columnist, bestselling author and campaigner.

An ultra-specialised journalist, he spends his life focusing on how to cut bills without cutting back. He runs and owns this website, the UK's biggest money site, which has 10 million users a month and over five million receiving the Martin's Money Tips weekly email. 

He makes regular media appearances on Daybreak, Lorraine, BBC Radio 2's Vine, Watchdog, BBC Radio 5 Live's Logan, and has a column in the The Sunday Post. In the past he's also had his own TV series on ITV1 and Channel 5. 

He's commonly credited as the "big gob in chief" behind the campaign to reclaim bank charges, with over 6 million template letters downloaded and a billion pounds paid back. He has also run massive financial justice campaigns to reclaim council tax, mortgage fees, and PPI amongst others.

His current campaign focus is pushing the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Financial Education for Young People and campaigning to get personal finance education as a compulsory part of the curriculum.

Martin is also founder and chair of the MSE Charity, which so far has distributed over £200,000 of grants to consumer finance education charities and individuals.
