On October 1st, the energy price cap will be increasing resulting in higher energy bills. You can avoid these increases by contacting your supplier and looking for a better tariff or changing energy providers. Find out more about what’s happening here.
If you struggle to pay your electricity bills, you could get £140 off your electricity bill for winter 2021 to 2022 under the Warm Home Discount Scheme. To be eligible you need to either receive the Guarantee Credit element of Pension Credit or be on low income. This is a one-off discount on your electricity bill between October and March. You can still receive it if you use a pre-pay or pay-as-you-go meter. To find out more, click here.
