Hi. I was accepted for the warm home discount on 18th October. I’ve still not received the payment on to my account. Could you tell me how much longer it will be? Thanks

I was told I will be receiving the Warm Home Discount on 19th October, but I still haven't received it. I'm having to sit under blankets as I can't afford to turn the heating on, I've emailed so many times to ask how much longer it will be but never receive a reply. Its so frustrating, I simply cant afford to get warm.

I messaged them on Facebook last night and someone has just replied asking for security questions. Hopefully they will get back to me shortly. I’ll post on here if I get any answers.

I’m glad I’m not the only one! I’m on a group on Facebook and a lot of boost customers have already received there’s. Some of them had only applied a few weeks ago! Wish they would do it in the order we applied in.

Thats the way it should be every application should be validated to so fraud doesnt happen
I applied as soon as we were able to. My email states payment will be made within 6 weeks (this was in the email they sent to say it had been accepted) now I'm being told it might not be paid until the end of March. This is gonna be a hard winter if I'm not able to have my heating on when needed.

Hi again. My account was credited this afternoon. I hope everyone else isn’t waiting much longer. For anyone that hasn’t been in touch with them yet, I messaged them on Facebook and they replied pretty quickly. Merry Christmas 😊

Did your go through the validation process?

Hi. I’m not sure. I received an email on 18th October saying I had been accepted and there was no mention of anything needing validation.

The Warm Home Discount window for 2021/2022 is now closed.
For more information on the Warm Home Discount, including how to apply next year, click here.
When making an application you’ll need your account number which can be found on a letter or email from Boost.
Hi all,
It should be added within 6 weeks of receiving your confirmation email. Please be aware the Ofgem deadline for making payments is the end of March 2019, but we're aiming to make them sooner than this.
If your application is currently in the process of being checked, this might take longer. We have to "validate" 5 to 10% of applications by asking for supporting documents from the DWP. This process can take 6 to 8 weeks too, after which you'll be sent information about the outcome.
Hope this helps,
Nancy

Wish they were open. Got a letter from our local council reminding me it's time to claim. Mind you I do have nearly £120 saved in my winter wallet so that will help.
