The team behind Money Saving Expert, founded by Martin Lewis, has issued advice to householders ahead of the £150 council tax rebate.
The discount comes as energy prices soar and the UK is hitting a cost of living crisis.
Earlier this year it was confirmed by Ofgem that the energy price cap will rise by 54%, adding an extra £693 to the average household bill.

Chancellor Rishi Sunak has promised £150 discount to council tax in bands A, B, C, or D.
Scotland residents will also be entitled to the £150 if they are in bands A to D - but they'll also qualify if they currently get a council tax reduction as well.
Finance Secretary Kate Forbes announced the rebate in the latest Scottish Budget and added that around 73 percent of Scottish households, 1.85 million people, would receive the discount.
She said: "“Firstly, we will provide £150 to every household in receipt of council tax reduction in all council tax bands.
“The council tax reduction scheme already identifies households in greatest need and will allow us to target this intervention.
“Secondly, I will provide local authorities with funding to pass on £150 to other occupied households in bands A to D in Scotland.”
Now, as it's just a month to go, the Money Saving Expert team has reminded households who will get it automatically.
As the Mirror reports, the team said in the latest newsletter: "Those who pay council tax by direct debit will get it automatically paid into their bank accounts."
"There's still time to set one up (although we can't give a specific deadline as it differs by council). If you don't set one up, the council will send you info on how to claim it."
Forbes explained that the money would be given to local authorities in Scotland or can be used as credit towards council tax bills.
The Local Government Association (LGA) this week warned how those who don't pay by direct debit could face delays in receiving their council tax rebate.
Councillor Shaun Davies said: "Having a direct debit set up will mean councils can automatically pay the £150 energy rebate straight into your bank account.
"It is quick and easy to set up to pay council tax by direct debit via your council's website.
"You can still get the money if you don't have a direct debit set up, but it could take longer as your council will have to contact you and then you'll have to make a claim."
The LGA estimates around one million Brits don't pay their council tax by direct debit.
You'll need to get in touch with your local council directly to set up direct debit payments.
This will allow payments to be taken automatically from your bank account each month, over 12 months or 10.
You can usually set up a council tax direct debit online, but there will also be options for doing it over the phone or by post too.
You can find out your Council Tax band on the Scottish Assessors' website here.
The money will either be given as a direct payment by local authorities or used as credit towards council tax bills, Forbes explained.
