💧 Want to slash your water bill? Martin Lewis and the Money Saving Expert team have shared a simple tip that could save you an average of £175 a year! Many households may be overpaying without even realising it. 🤯
🌟 It’s all about a “quick” check with your water supplier to see if you qualify for a social tariff. All water companies offer these, potentially cutting your bill by up to 90%! It doesn’t matter if you have a water meter or not—everyone should check! 🙌
👀 Over three million households could be missing out on this yearly saving. Each water company offers different schemes, with some requiring you to be on benefits like Pension Credit or Attendance Allowance. It takes just a few moments to find out.
💬 Jennifer’s success story demonstrates the impact: she went from a hefty £800 annual bill to a 50% discount just by qualifying for a social tariff.
🔍 Wondering if you qualify? Check your water company’s website for specific details. Remember, what’s considered ‘low income’ and the types of support available can vary. For example, Welsh Water has specific income thresholds, while other companies like South East Water offer help to those earning below £21,000.
💡 Even if you’re not on benefits, options still exist, especially if you’re living alone or in financial difficulty. It’s definitely worth a quick look!
