If you're an Octopus Energy customer here's another great benefit, as Octopus Energy are relaunching their electric blankets scheme for this winter, offering an additional 20,000 free electric blankets to its most vulnerable customers.
This is part of Octopus Energy’s £30million Octo Assist Fund, which supports customers in specific circumstances, including those who are medically vulnerable, elderly, or living alone with priority being give to those most in need. You can apply via Octo Assist on the link below:
Mario Lupori, director at Octopus Energy Group, said: “We know many people are worried about the costs of heating their homes over winter. An electric blanket means you heat the human, not the home – staying warm for as little as 3p an hour. We’ve got 20,000 more blankets this year to give out to our most vulnerable customers and we’re delighted that they will help them stay warm.”
How does the free electric blanket scheme work?
- Octopus Energy is offering one electric blanket per household to support the most vulnerable homes. This approach allows them to assist as many people as possible.
- People are urged to create a Paylink budget to see what support is available, and to see if they qualify for financial assistance.
- A team member will review the health of the customer’s account and the information provided during the application process to make a decision. Octopus said it then aims to get back to the customer within around a week.
- The electric blankets are supplied by Dreamland
