Getting “vulnerable” status with companies?

[Anna_2109]

Hi all! We discovered this week that British Gas will put a note on their file to say hubby is disabled & I am his carer so if anything happens to the heating we will get some kind of priority. Are there other companies/organisations I could/should be flagging this with?

The company that supplies your electricity will also provide this service along with whoever your local water company is - ditto BT or your telephone service provider. I also believe that Virgin Media have a similar scheme - so would think that companies like Sky would have the same.

Thank you so much, hadn’t considered any of those so very much appreciate you taking time to reply

I'm currently going through my dad's bank statement and pulling out any service providers to contact, including mobile phone companies & TV services etc (sometimes the TV is a lifeline for someone housebound etc.)

The Fire Service also register people as vulnerable and can come out to do a check / give advice etc.
