Customers are urged to claim their winter bills discount before it’s too late!

Major energy supplier SSE is encouraging customers to apply for a £140 discount on their winter heating bills through the Warm Home Discount.

The scheme is set to close to new applicants in the coming fortnight, so SSE is encouraging customers who think they might be eligible to get in touch as soon as possible to claim their discount.

As part of the Government scheme, SSE has made millions of pounds available to customers to help with their heating bills over the winter. Eligible customers can claim the Warm Home Discount of £140; all they have to do is get in touch with SSE.

Customers may be eligible for the discount if they or their partner are in receipt of certain benefits, suffer from a long-term illness, are disabled or are on a low income. However, there are only a limited number of grants available. So, SSE customers who think they might be eligible should get in contact with SSE as soon as possible.

All in all an estimated 300,000 SSE customers should receive the rebate this winter.

Gareth Wood, Customer Service Operations Director at SSE said:

“We know the winter months can be concerning for some households as the colder nights set in and the heating comes on. That’s why we’re urging customers to get in touch with us if they think they might be eligible for financial assistance under the Warm Home Discount.

“There’s a discount of £140 available for customers who receive certain qualifying benefits or who have a low income. However, there is a limit on the number of people that can receive the discount and applications are due to close soon. If a customer thinks they might fit the description they should get in touch as soon as possible to make sure they can get this help.”
