UK energy suppliers have laid out emergency measures to ensure vulnerable people are able to power their homes amid the Coronavirus outbreak.
More than four million people in the UK will receive support from energy suppliers in the coming weeks. Credit will be either sent in the post or automatically added to meters for those on prepayment meters.
For further peace of mind, disconnection of credit meters will be completely suspended.
Customers struggling financially will also receive help on debt repayments. The Prime Minister has additionally hinted at reassessing, reducing, or pausing bill payment where necessary in the upcoming weeks.
