Exactly how does it work?
Does the Government actually give £200 per household to the energy companies?
What exactly is a household, I assume it's actually the bill payer, correct me if I am wrong.
So, when the bill payer starts repaying this loan at £40 per year, where exactly does that £40 go? Do the energy companies send the £40 back to the government? If not, why not.
Is any interest applied to the amount of £40? Why?
What happens if my current energy supplier receives this loan from the government and subsequently goes out of business? Is the end user still required to repay this loan? How does that work?

Well, there's been a lot of shouting about how this enforced loan is going to be given to people whether we like it or not.
However, I am unable to find anywhere any information about whether or how this £200 is repaid to the government, if at all. |

It is to be repaid at the rate of £40 per year for 5 years and the charge is added automatically to your electricity bill. |

Yes, correct. But all that is being said is exactly this. I repay the energy company at the rate of £40 per year.
My question is, do they get to keep the £40 per year for themselves, or do the repay it to the government? |

The biggest beneficiaries are surely going to be the elderly, many of whom will not be expecting to pay it all back. |

But they will have to pay some of it back if not all, the only real beneficiaries will be the energy companies as the loan can only go to an energy company, i can not see the difference whether it is spent on heating or eating, the latter can not be cut down on in reality, but the former can which is being protected for some reason, a loan from the government for food to go to asda or lidl would be a better lifeline than energy. |

so the rebate not a rebate is applied to every domestic household regardless of need or occupancy ... then from next April every houshold will have a £40 chargeback applied wether or not they 'benifited' from the rebate not a rebate.
thats lots of student moving out of a 6 bed shared house who would have got £200 collectivley but if living elsewhere will have to pay the full £200 back.
Lets not forget the roughly 200k new builds a year which will also be paying back the rebate not a rebate so they get clobbered too. Could turn a nice profit for Sunak. Lend us our own money in 2022, then if son/daughter moves out and becomes a 'household' double bubble for Rishy. |

No they will just add it to the 12 billion they have in the pot already  |

So, energy prices up 54% in April, not sure there are plans to review the cap during Summer - not heard anything as yet.
Government hand out £200, payable over next 5 years. In October, energy prices expected to be further increased another 20% or more, especially if Russia Divert their gas to China.
On top of the 20% increase, customers also expected to pay the loan back. The combination of the two will push many into the can't afford it category.
Full details are being announced soon. Payday Loanshark Boris is busy filling out a survey I believe.
Just like petrol, gas and electric are not coming down while gas is in the mix. |

"Why does the energy cap have to be removed ? Can't the government put another one in place in April ?"
As far as I understand the cap has not been removed, it has been raised. It gets reviewed a couple of times a year to either raise or lower it. |

I hear that the survey was "posted" and needs to be returned within 7 days. Nobody has said if it was sent 1st or 2nd class, registered, proof of delivery indeed proof of posting?
Call me cynical if you like, but I grew up in the era when credit controllers were routinely told, "The cheque is in the post, mate. Nothing I can do."
So, chances of him receiving and returning in 7 days? |

It's not removed, it's been revised.. therefore prices up 54% in April, another 20% projected for October.
The cap varies and dependent on various factors, the main being the wholesale prices of gas and electricity. |
