This was mentioned some time ago - it only applies to those on specific benefits and above pensionable age.

here's what Jo posted at the time: blf.healthunlocked.com/blog...

Yes I applied for it and got it. I also allowed the company ashadegreener,co.uk to put solar panel on my roof at absolutely no cost to me. Its halved my monthly direct debit for electricity and I have had £100 pounds out of my account and I am in credit again. I would recommend it

Paul Lewis was on BBC Breakfast this morning talking about warm home payments and he mentioned older people, those on benefits and those with very young children. I waited for him to state how much people could be earning per year but he didn't mention that. I hope all who apply get it. Good luck as worth having. xxxx

I applied but didn't get it because we are just above the pension credit rate and to get it a pensioner has to get pension credit. We get housing benefit and council tax benefit and I receive attendance allowance but none of this qualifies us!!

Interesting comments, seem to be varied information about this new government rebate. I thought pensioners had to be on pension credit too, but thats not so according to the information I found when applying. If you are not on pension credit, you have to fulfill the same criteria as anyone else and apply to your electricity supplier for assessment of right. If on pension credit you automatically receive it from the DWP.

because the government will be taking more an more away over the next year.
