More people living in a Nottinghamshire district have been informed they will be eligible for a £150 energy rebate, as part of a bid to help more people pay bills. A letter sent to residents in the Ashfield District Council area has detailed how funding is available to support council tax payers who could not get a rebate at first.
The first rebate of £150 was for people who live in properties that pay council tax in band A to band D. But this has now been extended to some that pay council tax in band E to band H properties.
Any Ashfield council tax payer in any property in those higher bandings who currently claims a council tax reduction (CTR) will be eligible for a £150 energy rebate payment. And all households who pay council tax in a band E property also qualify for the rebate payment, even if they do not claim a CTR.
