Households eligible for the Warm Home Discount must be named on their energy bill by 23 August to receive it automatically this winter. The government is urging eligible households to check that they are named on their energy bill ahead of a deadline that determines who receives the £150 Warm Home Discount automatically this winter. Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh said:“Families will be worried about their energy bills this winter and our focus is on giving them breathing space, as we continue to work to bring down bills. Almost a million more families with children received the £150 Warm Home Discount last winter, after we expanded scheme. The government also points to last year’s Budget, which it says cut an average of £150 from energy bills through measures that will continue to be reflected in bills in future years.
