NSW Pensioner and Veteran rebates — electricity

If you hold a current pensioner concession card or Department of Veterans' Affairs gold card, you may be eligible for a rebate on your electricity charges.

The electricity rebate is calculated on a daily basis and will appear on your bill as a separate line item.

Please note: you must be listed as the current account holder to be eligible.

Eligibility

To be eligible for the rebate for each billing period:

• only one rebate will be allowed for an account in each billing period
• the property relating to the account has to be the sole or principle place of residence of the applicant
• the applicant has to provide ActewAGL with details of the concession card. The pensioner concession card has to be issued to the applicant by Centrelink and the gold card (certain types only) by the Department of Veterans' Affairs.
