The Post Office is warning customers of the looming closing date to redeem the first of the Government’s Energy Bill Support Scheme (EBSS) vouchers, as £17m remains unclaimed from October’s support.
In total, over £64m of EBSS payments are still waiting to be claimed through the Post Office.
Issued in monthly instalments to households in England, Scotland, and Wales who use a pre-payment meter, the first of these vouchers, worth £66, are set to expire on next week.
Post Office branches have already processed nearly three million EBSS vouchers to help people access the financial support available – aiding the delivery of £190m of energy vouchers to prepayment customers to help with the rising cost of living.
