warm home discount scheme

Does anyone know if this is the last year of warm home discount scheme? I got told it only for 3 years and this is third year.

OFCOM mention that the 2014 / 2015 payments will be £140.00, so the scheme will run till at least then:

I don't think I received any emails at all from bg even to confirm application! Should I reapply?

There's a massive backlog of online forms to be processed and the BG closing date for processing applications is 31st Jan.

If you've submitted a form online and haven't heard anything, ring up before the 31st to have your application processed there and then over the phone

I did a online form , but rang up to check , ended up completing it again over the phone . The guy said they will be processed at random ,so it just a waiting game . Or as he agreed a lottery to see who gets there money first ,sorry credit first .

ots the third year this year.
i missed out on the first one because scottish power took 6 months to confirm which meter belonged to which property, and by the time they did, it was too late to claim ( long story)
i received it last year and wull be receiving it again this year.
they have confirmed that they will be doing it next year as well * £140)

It is the 3rd one this year. Next year will be £140 and the
last year, unless they continue it!! Which I very much doubt!
