All the DWP Benefits Eligible for £150 as Millions to Be Able to Claim - but Be Quick
Over six million households in England and Wales could save £150 on energy bills this winter through an expanded Warm Home Discount scheme, officials said.
- The Government on Sunday 24 August issued a reminder that eligible households could save up to £250 annually through the Warm Home Discount if they are named on their electricity bill.
- By expanding the scheme, the Government lifted eligibility restrictions earlier this year, increasing beneficiaries to over six million households, 2.7 million more than last year.
- In England and Wales, eligible recipients of Housing Benefit, ESA, JSA, Income Support, Pension Credit or Universal Credit may get £150 off their energy bills, depending on eligibility criteria, as part of government support.
- After this date, eligible households can still claim via a letter later this year, with a few weeks remaining to ensure their details are correct on the bill.
- Amid a 7% fall in energy bills since July, Ofgem warns bills will increase by 104% by 2031 to fund £24 billion in infrastructure.
