Thankfully eligibility is updated.

Nice to read I'll qualify £140 WHD Discount this year
This is relevant to me -
Income of £16,190 -x or less and Working Tax Credit x or the Universal equivalent
AND
at least one of the additional criteria
• Disability Living Allowance
• Personal Independence Payment -x

Had been slightly concerned that this years eligibilty could have been changed -though this is similar to what I qualified for via SP during 2017/2018.

Could be nice warm flat :)
Hope mser's get what they need!

    Good to hear.

    But have you checked how much premium (without WHD) you are paying?
    According to EnergyHelpLine, the cheapest SSE Tariff currently available for us would be their SSE 1 Year Fixed v15 tariff, which would set us back £783 per year, compared to the £531 we are expected to spend with our current suppliers
    (We are MSE low users)
    That is an oncost (before any WHD discount) of a whopping £252 :eek:

    I would urge you to consult a comparsion site to see if you can save more elsewhere than the £140 WHD you are expecting from SSE.

    Yes can't remember exact sse tariff I committed this year though I did get 5k Nectar points-which I'm continuing to collect.
    Sse were slightly more expensive than previous SP though after some slow i.t. Meter reading info failing to up date.
    Sse has been fine since-trying to build up some credit ahead of winter.
    My DD is set@ £81 per month-though I'm only using upto £60 per month past 2-3 months since switch.
    Once winter arrives and storage heating is switched on, I'll then be able to judge sse to decide if I'll stay after 1st year.

    Maybe not strictly mse'r though I enjoy choice of providers particularly after a few years.
    Congrats on your true mse'r energy saving-enjoy
