New £400 energy bill rebate simplified to help more people understand how the discount works
New research from National Energy Action suggests that one in three UK households could fall into fuel poverty if the latest estimates that the average gas and electricity bills could reach £3,245 per year become a reality. Experts at Cornwall Insight recently said bills could rise from a current record of £1,971, to £3,245 in October and may increase even further to £3,364 at the start of next year.
Help with soaring energy bills Some 28 million households across the UK with a direct domestic electricity contract with their supplier are set to receive a £400 rebate through an expansion of the Energy Bills Support Scheme. Direct debit and credit customers will have the money credited to their account, while customers with pre-payment meters will have the money applied to their meter or paid via a voucher.Below is everything you need to know about the £400 energy grant which has been published in new guidance on the GOV.UK website here.
Will I be eligible for the Energy Bills Support Scheme? All households with a domestic electricity connection will be automatically eligible for the £400 grant. There is no need to contact energy suppliers concerning the rebate.The guidance states: "Households will not need to apply for the Scheme, and in most cases we expect electricity suppliers to apply the reduction automatically to bills from October 2022.
