    I expect it is. I sent off for mine two months ago, and got four bulbs in the post.

    Is it being used on a dimmer switch by any chance? - If so they will flash.
  • Thanks OP Foxy for this... didn't see it before :D

  • I tried my energy saving lightbulbs with a dimmer and unless it's turned on full power it will flash.
  • Even if you not on those benefits, apply and see if youn get the bulbs. Can't see that they check every applicant, they would have to have a disclaimer from you allowing them access to your private personal information anyway!

    Which benefit is best to say in this case?

    I think its not so important to have engery saving bulbs if you have a dimmer switch, as the whole point of a dimmer switch is that you can have the lights on real low, hence using less electricity anyway.
