You will be able to choose from the following options but please ensure you have the relevant identification to support your claim as your application must be verified before the payment can be made:

  1. Have the payment made into your bank account (you will need to provide proof of your bank account upon application)
  2. Apply for a Post Office Pay Out voucher where you will receive a voucher which you can take to any Post Office and exchange for £150 cash (you will need to provide identification to the Post Office to obtain the payment)
  3. Request the £150 is credited to your Council Tax account (if you have Council Tax arrears, this will be offset against the arrears rather than against current liability)

Closing date for applications

 Applications will close at midnight on Sunday 14 August 2022.

If you have not submitted an application by this date, your £150 energy rebate payment will be automatically credited to your Council Tax account by 30 September 2022. You will then receive a revised Council Tax bill detailing your reduced monthly instalment payments. If you have Council Tax arrears, the credit will reduce this balance first.
