Help with energy bills?

[Rach459]

Hello, i was wondering if anyone knows if there is help with energy costs? Im 33 years old, i claim PIP low amount for Lupus complications and severe raynauds. I have the heating on alot during november-april. So you can imagine my gas bill!

Thanks in advance

Try calling your energy supplier or British gas trust or Severn Trent trust you DONT have to be a customer of either to get help . They will send a form out or you can do on the trusts website

I tried to with severe raynauds, and I didn't get anywhere as you had to have specific benefits. I get low rate PIP too, but it's maybe worth trying.

Yes they do if you're on the right benefits..to find out give your energy supplier a call n ask for a form. They send the form out to u n u fill it in..send it back n they will let u know if you're entitled to it..u have to reapply every year. I get £140 put on my electric meter but u can request for it to go on the gas meter..they usually put it on automatically round about February in my case xx

I know if you are on Low income you can get £140 towards your energy costs, you can only apply around September time just before winter kicks in. Warm home discount scheme. Most big energy companies have this. X
