Winter Winners – Terms and Conditions (October 2023)

Terms and conditions

From 1 November 2023 until 31 December 2023 inclusive, when you get a smart meter installed through UW, you will automatically be entered into one of two prize draws (depending on the date of your installation) to win one of the prizes set out below, if you meet the eligibility criteria. 

 

You will automatically be entered into one prize draw only (either the November 2023 or the December 2023 prize draw), when you successfully install a smart meter through UW. Only one entry per UW account is permitted.

 

Eligibility Criteria 

1. In order for you to be eligible to be automatically entered into the Winter Winners prize draw, you must: 

  • be an existing UW customer before 1 November 2023;

  • be eligible to have a smart meter installed through UW*; 

  • have received direct communication about the prize draw from UW alone;

  • have had a smart meter successfully installed through UW between 1 November 2023 and midnight on 31 December 2023 inclusive**;

  • be an existing UW energy customer before 1 November 2023, and not already have a smart meter installed at your property.

*   You will only be eligible to have a smart meter installed, if UW decides that (a) you do not already have smart meter(s) installed at your property, and (b) it is possible to install a smart meter at your property. Installation may not always be possible due to technical, process or other reasons. 

**   Engineer appointments booked through UW for installing smart meters are limited, and there is no guarantee  of an appointment being available between 1 November 2023 and 31 December 2023 inclusive. A successful meter installation is required for automatic entry into the Winter Winners prize draw. For the avoidance of doubt, booking an engineer appointment, or allowing an engineer to attend your property to install a smart meter, will not make you eligible for the Winter Winners prize draw if the engineer is unable to complete the installation successfully.
