Overview
You could get £150 off your electricity bill for winter under the Warm Home Discount Scheme.
The money is not paid to you - it's a one-off discount on your electricity bill, between October and March.
You may be able to get the discount on your gas bill instead if your supplier provides you with both gas and electricity. Contact your supplier to find out.
The discount will not affect your Cold Weather Payment or Winter Fuel Payment.
