Scots are being urged to redeem their energy rebate vouchers as hundreds of thousands remain unclaimed.
As part of the Government energy bill support scheme, more than 1.1 million Scots were given financial support to help with rising fuel bills. But new data shows that almost a quarter of Scottish households with prepayment meters have not redeemed all of their £400 rebate payments, with this rising further to one in three homes in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
While most homes saw installments automatically taken off their bills, prepayment meter users were given vouchers to redeem. Now, households are being reminded to cash in any unused vouchers before they expire on June 30.
