We have also had ours.I've had mine -- but we live in Wyre borough.
i reside in macclesfield which is in cheshire and got ours back about 2 weeks ago now.Nothing in Cheshire as yet.
Shootz - Thanks.i reside in macclesfield which is in cheshire and got ours back about 2 weeks ago now.
Ha ha! Hardly say where I live is posh but @bollieboy certainly does live in the posh bit!Shootz - Thanks.
You're living in the posh part of 'proper' Cheshire, where things happen more quickly.
We're in former Lancashire, under the hopeless unitary authority of Warrington - together with Thorniley, Dale and Critch!
From his name Shootz, I'd guess he's living in the VERY posh Bollington LOL.Ha ha! Hardly say where I live is posh but @bollieboy certainly does live in the posh bit!
Me too.Not eligible as outside the banding A to D - obviously means my gas and electric is cheaper than those in a lower banded house. Ridiculous
Surely a fairer system is to give the discount to all ?Me too.
I wouldn't mind, but logically bigger houses cost more to heat, and there's no proof of how people came by them, or whether their circumstances have changed since purchase.Surely a fairer system is to give the discount to all ?
If you haven't got a meter I think you get charged more for your water aswell, never really understood that one either!Not eligible as outside the banding A to D - obviously means my gas and electric is cheaper than those in a lower banded house. Ridiculous
No.Do you have to apply for this?
No one with any sense slags Scotland off.I know many of you slag Scotland off, but we had our notice 4/5 weeks ago
Happened the other way round for me, ultimately the same thing but I saw it as a bonus, all about perspective I suppose!Got it yesterday. Only for it to be chomped up by this month's council tax. In one hand - out of the other.
correct, i moved out when i got married.....From his name Shootz, I'd guess he's living in the VERY posh Bollington LOL.
Fully agree with you. Me and wife have downsized from a band G property. However, we were only in that big a house because we took in my wife's widowed mother by combining our resources. Now that she's passed on and our lad has moved away it made no sense staying there. That said, I recognise that if the £150 rebate had happened whilst we were still there we'd have had to take it on the chin.I wouldn't mind, but logically bigger houses cost more to heat, and there's no proof of how people came by them, or whether their circumstances have changed since purchase.

Mine paid in today I am in fyldeAny Blackpool residents had theirs yet?

Thank f**king God !correct, i moved out when i got married.....
Didn't realise that the discount was cut off so low. Really should have extended to Band E and F.I'm guessing the Tories have restricted the discount to demonstrate that they're not benefiting the rich
But all they've done is to hit middle earners (and those with lower incomes who came by an E band property by other means as Wizaard said).
We're in a D band property so got ours today (Blackpool), but I agree that the restriction should have applied to Bands G or H (160k or 320k valuation in 1991). That would been more likely to hit only the wealthier if they insisted on a restriction, or better still just give the 150 to all?
