New Green Homes Grant to give up to £5,000 in vouchers for insulation and double-glazing

sorryitsme

Last week I had my roof insulated by using the voucher and miraculously the contractor got paid today!! Now they will book in for my windows to be installed, although I’m still waiting for the voucher from the street door.

Applied for grant in February called yesterday and they stated they cancelled due to me having previous funding, which was warm front in 2017 for a boiler

What were you applying for from GHGS? 
I'm puzzled about GHGS referring to 'previous funding' as GHGS didn't exist before October last year.
Was it definitely GHGS you were applying to?

That can’t be true, you are allowed previous Eco grants for boilers etc, doesn’t effect this grant, there must be more to it.

(Just to get that lot in one place - as Aauk quoted the wrong one in their reply.)

I'm equally sceptical about a previous grant cancelling the application for a GHGS Voucher.
So it would be useful to know more.

The only reference I have seen to old grant schemes affecting GHGS is in the Local Authority version of GHGS where, for the area I live, it says that they cannot use their version of GHGS if there has been a previous ECO scheme grant.  

So perhaps sajidb, who had a previous Warm Front Grant (a scheme that was rebranded ECO) applied via their local authority for GHGS and not direct via GHGS?  

sajidb - how did you apply?

I applied through EON for the warm front grant

Ok, but how did you apply for GHGS?
Direct via GHGS or via your local authority?

Direct via GHGS
