Hi guys… received letter from TRU Energy today mentioning above offer. I have listed the website address and it states as below:

Is there any other way we can help?

If you have a current South Australian concession card or are part of TRUenergy's Hardship Assistance Program, you are eligible to receive a TRUenergy in-house energy audit. This involves a qualified energy auditor visiting your property to identify ways you can reduce your gas and electricity usage, which can save you money on energy bills. To find out more, please call us on 1800 368 476."
Fine Prints from the web page:
"1 Total savings of $210 are based on the cost of supplying and installing energy saving devices and the estimated energy savings made over 12 months by taking up this offer. Rounded down to the nearest ten dollar unit.
2 Saving calculation is based on the cost of 8 CFL globes and 1 low flow showerhead per house plus the installation charge of $55. Costs are calculated on a SA RRP of $4.99 per CFL globe and $61.60 per low flow showerhead. Excluding halogen downlights and fittings where CLF globes can not be fitted.
3 Energy savings are calculated on: replacing 8 standard globes (75W) with 8 CFL globes (18W) and using each globe for approximately 2 hours per day over a 12 month period. The rate used for the calculation is based on TRUenergy’s market offer rate as at 11/03/09 of 18.96 cents/kWh and is exclusive of any discounts. Price shown is rounded to the nearest $10 unit. All dollar amounts are inclusive of GST."
PS:
I am not sure if this is restricted to SA only. I live in SA and I have got an appointment booked! Can ozbargainers in other states confirm if they are able to get it?
I am not sure if this is only for existing customers. I am with TRU. Can anyone not with TRU confirm if they ring at all?
**EDIT:
It says SA only so have updated now***
I think you should put SA in the title. How would you get the lamps if they don't come around? I don't think they will drive interstate to visit non-SA homes.
