How Many Government Fuel Payments

[Redhelen72]

have the people of GB received?
Here in NI the only people to receive are pensioners receiving their normal payments and those on benefits - no one else has received anything or will recieve anything before January at the earliest!

At this rate we will be lucky to get it for Summer - this is because the 'Government' here is not runing because of Brexit!

Oh, I forgot about the Warm Homes Discount...got that on my electric meter about a week ago. It's going faster than I'd like :(

Thank you all for your responses

Think I’m getting 400 quid but a friend told me I’ll get it in stages. Is that right?

Everyone is getting £400, usually paid straight to your energy supplier in £66 monthly instalments. Began in October - check your account.

Is it correct that the Prods have declared that they'll only accept weekly payments of £16.90 and there will be no surrender on this point?

@12.46.Or will Sinn Fein/IRA voters refuse to accept any payments from us hated Brits.Dont hold your breath.

They don't seem to know how to get the payment to people who use oil, such as us and the vast majority of homes in the villages around here. If they decide to knock it off electricity bills we should be in for a fair while of no leccy bills - the oil is the expensive bit and has to be paid for on delivery.

Only £500 heating allowance
…….£400 over 6months for electricity for us.
No £150 off rates
No one off payment of £650
No warm home payment of £150
It must only be if you get any benefits you get other payments

Minds may yet be focussed.
