Fuel Debt
If you are having problems keeping up with your fuel bill payments, your first point of call is your energy company, as they will be able to arrange the best payment option for you to improve the situation. Their number will be on the meter, or on your most recent fuel bill.
The most common debt repayment methods are:-
- Paying an extra set amount on top of your regular payments. The amount can be negotiated with your supplier.
- People on Income Support can consider fuel direct. This is when a set amount is agreed with the energy supplier to cover the arrears and the current energy usage.
- A prepayment meter. Many suppliers are keen to fit these as it guarantees them repayment. However they are the most expensive method of paying for your fuel, have a risk of self-disconnection and the inconvenience of having to purchase cards or top up keys.
- Debts can also be paid off by making a lump sum payment.
