You will receive a one-off bonus bill credit of $250 on your first electricity bill and $250 on your first gas bill (a total of $500 for gas and electricity), provided you have not received a welcome credit from us in the past 12 months. This credit includes GST and is not redeemable for cash.
This offer ends 10th December 2024.
Referrer and referee get $75 in bill credits.
Rates for my area were exorbitant
Stil worth though for the credit
burn through the credit then switch
WOW! much more expensive than AGL here in SA. No wonder why the sign up credits are big…
so if you dont use $500 for the first bill cycle they forfeit it rather than rolling over?
Thanks so much for this insight. Yeah the rates are higher and if dont get the full credit this offer is not as appealing
Really? Thats a first. All providers have always rolled over credits. So this is def only a first bill credit then. Not worth it in that case. Was considering it but still have 150+ credit with power shop to get through.
For postcode 3125
13c per day more than AGL
3.5c p/kw more as well
for my post code its like 31c extra a day and 10 cents a kwh extra wtf.
plus i can get 10cents off a ltr at ampol energy up to 1500L a year
Any idea if this credit is only applicable for the first month? If someone doesn't use the full $250 worth of electricity, will the remaining amount be forfeited?
got the confirmation that it will carry forward. According to the chat support, "The $500 Bill Credit ($250 for gas and $250 for electricity) is a welcome credit that will be applied to your first bill. For example, if your first bill is $200, the remaining $50 will carry forward and be applied to your next bill."
thanks for that
Much more expensive than Ampol for me in Energex area Qld:
Supply charge 114.94c per day (compared to 94.49c per day for Ampol)
Usage 35.49c per kW for first 13kW a day 37.26c per kW for additional usage (compared to flat rate 26.18c per kW for Ampol)
Can you just use them for a month then move on to another energy provider or do we have to stick with them for at least 3 months to receive the credits?
Is it per address or per person?
Would like to know that.
Wonder if this stacks with ecconex deal
Doesn't show up on the Shopback app, so assuming not… Might show up in a few more days?
I believe we can stack with either the cashreward/ShopBack or ecconex deal, but not both.
what was the ecconex deal? i seem to have missed it
how do we stack the ecconex and engie deal? the offers are from different websites right?
so looks like engie $500 for electricity and gass and ecconex $350 for electricity and gas = total $850
Oh my bad. This offer doesn't come up for me as the same option through econnex. There are different options.
Duncraig, WA 6023 - "Sorry, this offer is not available in this area yet. If you think there has been an error, please get in touch"
both shopback and cashrewards has it. Do you have to wait till it is redeemable, or is it enough to stay only for a month?
Stay until you get your cashback then switch. Normally 3 months
So stacked with cashback and engie deal?
Seems the plan they offer on Engie website and via Cashrewards are a bit different.
im still trying to get through my $1000 i got in july from government
FYI you get the remaining credit as a refund if/when you switch. You are then free to invest it in your favourite colour of eneloops.
Powershop confirmed that any remaining credit from government and concession would be refunded
Refunded to the customer or the retailer?
Wow pathetic rates
$500 goes pretty far when the rates are bad
What happens if you leave while you still have credit?
Ie my power bill is always positive because of my solar feed in. So if anything my credit would increase, could I technically be with them for a few months and then claim the credit to my bank account?
How big is your solar btw?
10.5kw
Welcome credit will be forfeited once you leave. Government credit would be refunded
Thanks good to know

This is the first time I have seen such big sign up credit being offered. Need to check how the rates stack up.
