scottsdad Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Is this £400 new money, or does it include the money already being knocked off council tax bills (at a huge saving of a bit over a tenner a month)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is on top of the £150. Martin Lewis spoke to Sunak this week and was expecting an announcement in July. He suspects it was brought forward due to the publication of the Sue Gray report. Mentioned in the video in the link below. Martin Lewis 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure the mail and express would be in meltdown if Corbyn had implemented this....... It makes him a self serving, lying to the house, breach of the ministerial code, tory c**t. As he was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears to be replacing the £200 "loan" with a £400 grant that no longer needs to be paid back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Not sure why you’ve put loan in inverted commas there.Because it's not as simple as a loan, given that it wasn't tied to an individual but rather to a house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Well, I'll be glad to get it, £300 per pensioner household + £400 (if we get it due to no Stormont). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 4 minutes ago, Melanius Mullarkay said: Its a loan to a household. A household is the set of people who live in a house. I currently own my house and thus will get this money deducted off my bill at some point. However, if I then decide to sell my house and move back in with my parents, I will never have to pay this money back, because I won't be paying a bill at the point where the money comes back off. The opposite is also true, you could have someone who is 15 and living with their parents at the time this "discount" arrives, but who has moved into their own place by the time it has to be paid back. They would have to "repay" this via their energy bills despite having not benefited from it in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) I've not been in this thread until now. We pre-empted the expected rise by doubling our Direct Debit. We then hear from EDF they want double again and have actually collected the first payment. She called them today..."oh aye, our mistake, we'll put you back on the rate you increased to. Would you like a refund?" Possibly been mentioned before, but make sure you question any increase.
