I’m renting, but my name is not on the electricity account, will I still get the credit?
For operational reasons, the government credit will only apply to the electricity account holder.
If your landlord pays your electricity bill and you have questions about the credit, you'll need to raise these directly with your landlord.
The government is working with the Residentials Tenancies Board (RTB) to publicise and increase awareness of the electricity credits to ensure those in rented accommodation receive benefit from the payments.
In the event of a dispute arising, there are existing dispute resolution mechanisms provided by the RTB to landlords and tenants.
