I’m keen to raise awareness for Scottish Gas customers of the availability of up to £2000 as part of their Energy Support Fund for those struggling with energy bills.
As MP for Aberdeenshire North and Moray East, I’m well aware that the cost of energy is a real concern for many constituents as winter approaches, battling to pay ever increasing bills as the price of energy continues to rise. For those worried about their energy debt or who are struggling to pay their bills, I hope they will consider applying for this vital support from Scottish Gas if they are existing customers or, to reach out for the additional support offered to those from other energy supplier via the Individuals and Families Fund.
Details on this fund:
This Energy Support Fund is available exclusively for Scottish Gas customers who have energy debt between £50 – £2,000 on a pre-payment meter, or £250 – £2,000 on a credit account.
Scottish Gas are also offering additional support to customers from any energy supplier through the British Gas Energy Trust’s Individuals and Families Fund (I&F), which provides those struggling with energy debt on prepayment or credit accounts with up to £1,700.
In addition, throughout this winter, energy customers across Britain can also visit their local British Gas Support Pop Ups, where British Gas Energy Trust funded advisors will be on-site to provide an in-depth overview of the support available, signpost people to local organisations for ongoing support, check for benefits entitlements and provide free energy-saving tips and advice.
