ENERGYWATCH FREE PASSWORD PROTECTION SCHEME WITH YOUR GAS AND ELECTRICITY SUPPLIER

If you are a domestic consumer and one or more of the following applies to you:

. Of Pensionable Age

. Have Long Term ill Health

. Have a Disability

. Are Blind or Visually Impaired

Then you can register with Energywatch under the 'Priority Services Register' to join the free 'Password Protection Scheme' with your gas and electricity provider.

Your own personal safety is really important and to make sure you know a caller is genuine, you can agree a unique password with your gas and electricity supplier that will be used whenever their staff visit your home. By doing so you can protect yourself against 'bogus callers' pretending to be from your gas and electricity supplier.

When you register for the Password Protection Scheme with Energywatch, they will then contact your supplier on your behalf, and in turn your supplier will contact you to confirm that you have been registered. *

*Please note that some suppliers use a different brand name for the 'Priority Service Register'.
