But was in Deal before, along with free public transport, rebates for solar & batteries, etc by Qld Govt. Seems Mods are ok with it - as is…

Only for Queenslanders paying the electricity bill! Investors don't usually pay other's power bills.

Qld Govt is doing that as well with $14B surplus💰 Like massive pumped hydro projects.

Do as I first suggested - Report Deal. But with 240 upvotes, Mods will ignore your complaint. I think discussion is good idea & has raised…

income tax is national. This [QLD] Deal is a State based benefit. So many have moved to Qld from other States - not knowing about this.

Qld apparently didn't see the advantage of joining with those Southerners. But big bad Canberra offered a huge productivity payment to sign…

A bit simplistic. Used to teach at Uni with a Finance / Economist mate. He always warned about simplistic models & assumptions in the…

I like FREE electricity⚡ (after $1k rebate)

Yes. Will likely have to ask for a refund from retailer.

Got a refund of remaining rebate when switched from Origin this year.

I haven't had to pay my electricity bill in years, due to these Rebates & incentives to switch retailers. (No solar or gas) I'm making a…

How many more years do you think "cost of living" is going to last? That's what this temporary measure is meant for. Paid out of this…

You're wrong, as has already been explained. It's the account holders money, not the electricity retailers! Switch electricity retailers &…

Was with Origin earlier this year, with this Rebate. But left & had remainder of rebate refunded to my bank account. Origin can really…

I've met people who work so hard to pay the mortgage, they are never home to enjoy the view or relax. One in cliff top Northern Beaches…

About same for me. Haven't gone back to work in years. Mainly travel (up to 9 months a year) overseas. Spent over a year travelling in…

A bit like why is Victoria called Victoria? And Queensland called Queensland? ...To keep Queen Victoria happy. And the Colonies like…

Currently paid as quarterly installments to your Qld electricity bill

Qld does things differently! Queensland had a petrol subsidy, paid to petrol stations, to reduce petrol price in Qld. Failed as there was…

So sad - you are so butt hurt🤣 So your ridiculous comments are totally irrelevant. Besides, we need to find ways to spend our $14B…

Simplistic! Some economists would disagree in this particular situation. This rebate has been operating for years! ----- Rebate is paid…

Such a good Ninja😉 In studying Rakugo (Traditional Storytelling) in Osaka, learnt an important story about that. Japanese would not…

Criticism here is mainly from States that sold their electricity production to private companies. And can't benefit from this.

Well yes. BUT, this is the 3rd year of this "cost of living" rebate! People now expect this rebate, so not a great inducement to change…

Read: How would I know in Melb?? This is the 3rd year of this scheme! Everyone got a smaller rebate for many years before that. >bill will…

Working as a consultant, had a LNP Minister as a client. As there was strict confidentiality, he shared a lot of secrets. I admired him,…

Thanks Vic! Why would you care, it doesn't affect you.

It's far too sensible😄 Have so much crap bought in Deals for cents. Wish I didn't. Now think first & save time & money! Don't need it.…
