Going to invest mine in a heat pump dryer to hopefully lower next years bills too, what are you going to purchase with the savings from Dishy Rishi?

If you're up against it, one of the best things you could buy is an electric heated blanket.

Much more efficient to heat the person than to heat the space.

It shouldn't be like this, of course, but if it is, then it's a good idea.

Is it not paid against your energy bill rather than getting 400 in cash. I would echo what others have said if your very worried about heating use spare case to buy a good quality fleece, slippers, beanie etc. You might look a bit daft but you will stay warm. My office room gets no sunlight in 2020 heating it was over £100 a month its tiny so I just bought body warmer to wear over my jumper beanie and thick socks and never had heating on in there. Was fine. So this year 400 extra....Coke an hookers

Yes
If you are on a direct debit the money is added to your energy bill as a credit over 6 months.
This will be applied in monthly instalments over six months, with a reduction of £66 in October and November, and of £67 a month from December to March 2023.
Customers with pre-payment meters will have the money applied to their meter or paid via a voucher.
The above is courtesy of the BBC and applies to UK except NI

With reagrds to Coke and hookers I will never criticise another PH'ers lifestyle but I would urge you to check that any hookers are doing it of their own freewill and have not been trafficked in from poorer places like abroad or Yorkshire or Glasgow

I was planning to treat myself on Christmas Day by being able to have the heating on for more than 30 minutes.
