Martin Lewis issued a huge warning to anyone trying to make a will. The Money Saving Expert founder was hosting his ITV show on Tuesday evening when he issued some important advice.
He directed viewers to a website where they would be able to make their own will for free. However, when returning from a short break, he later admitted that the website had crashed due to a high user volume. He told the audience: "Welcome back, we have been talking about wills. I do need to tell you that the free wills website is down. Give it some time. You do have some time to book in there, it should be available for the next few days." However, as Martin ran into another block of useful information, fans at home complained that, just like the website, they couldn't keep up.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one viewer said: "Can anyone else not follow Martin Lewis as he gabbles too quickly?"
Another echoed: "Five mins of Martin Lewis and my head's dropped off."
One more fumed: "FOR GOODNESS SAKE SLOW DOWN, THERE'S LOADS TO LOOK AND LISTEN #MartinLewis."

In the episode, Martin tackled wills and lasting power of attorney with a panel of specialists. He took viewers' questions and giving advice on making sure people are financially covered for any eventuality, including death.
He also touched on Power of Attorney as he said: "I think Power of Attorney is more important than a will, because you're alive and your money could be locked away. This is really important.
"If you lose your faculties, do not assume relatives can access your money, not even to pay for your care or to pay the mortgage.
"That is what a Power of Attorney is for. So ask yourself, who would look after you? Who could access your funds? Who do you want to be in charge of ensuring your money works for you if you are no longer capable of doing so?"
