Hi all. Certain tarrifs are giving a one off payment for electricity. On certain benefits, kids under 5, disabilities.

Check to the link, to see if you'd be entitled.

Good luck trying hard. I didn't see anything that said about being a new customer. I did however read on one of the companies list, that even if you left and moved to another company, they would still pay the full amount.

Check out the gas one too, as they do it, again for single parents with children under 5, and on benefits.

The water company also. I looked into it, but didn't qualify as I'm not on a water meter!!

In fact I don't qualify for anything Cry

My advice is turn off all lights, sit in the dark. Get water bottles, snuggle up to the kids (who needs partners, they're not as cuddly)lol.

Shall take a peek at that Louise, thankyou. Smile
