The UK Government has issued an update on who will qualify for this year’s Warm Home Discount Scheme.
This comes after the eligibility criteria has changed and an increase of the payment from £140 to £150 will be issued The money is paid directly by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to energy suppliers and deducted from electricity bills.
The new boost with heating bills will be appreciated by eligible households following the announcement that the UK Government's £2,500 Energy Price Guarantee will end in April as the Government will review it, a year earlier than first planned. On top of this, all households will also be receiving a £400 discount on energy bills until March 2023.
