Good shot? Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) Just got a text asking me to apply for the £400 payment and giving an Internet address to visit in order to do so. Got to be a scam because payments are automatic. Be aware and Bin it. Edited September 27, 2022 by Good shot? Bin it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30-6 Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 I had this and it went straight to the spam folder. If you look the headline address didn't have any " dots " in it, just one complete word. Instead of Gov.uk it was just Govuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmicblue Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 I had an Email from EON (Electricity only from them) yesterday to say my DD payment was falling from £91/month to £24/month until next March (I'm on a capped tariff until next April anyway) - due to the £400 subsidy. So this is the way it works in the real world - rather than as those Scammers would like you to believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
