We are delighted to introduce you to our new brand partner – Utility Warehouse. Due to regulations within the energy industry, Purpl is unable to get you a disabled discount for gas and electric with any energy providers however, we believe that Utility Warehouse can save you money in many ways. 

With the cost of living crisis, saving money on essential bills has never been more important. This is even more important for our Purpl members who already have the additional burden of living with a disability. As costs continue to rise, finding effective ways to reduce your household expenses can make a real difference. Although we may not be able to get you a disabled discount for your utility bill, at Purpl, we are committed to supporting our members. By partnering with trusted providers like Utility Warehouse (UW), enabling you to save money on your energy, broadband, mobile, and other essential services, all while enjoying additional perks such as cashback on everyday spending.

“My family has been with Utility Warehouse for a few years now, and for me, the best part is the Cashback Card. It lets you lower your monthly bill just by using it for everyday spending. We’ve bundled all our mobile contracts, energy bills, and even boiler servicing with UW, which gives us the maximum savings. The added bonus? You can use the cashback card to pay for products with your Purpl Discount, so it’s double the savings!”
Georgina, Purpl Founder

Why Choose Utility Warehouse?

Utility Warehouse (UW) is a leading multi-service provider in the UK, offering a range of essential utilities under one roof. By bundling services like gas, electricity, broadband, mobile, and home insurance, UW provides incredible savings for customers, simplifying your bills and delivering consistent value. Instead of juggling multiple service providers, UW gives you one easy-to-understand bill with reduced rates.

For members of Purpl, this means access to tailored utility solutions that can help you cut down on your household bills, especially if you’re concerned about managing expenses due to a disability or lower income due to not being able to work.

Benefits of Utility Warehouse for Purpl Members

  1. Multi-service Bundles and Discounts: One of the primary advantages of Utility Warehouse is its multi-service packages. The more services you switch, the more you save. For example, if you combine your gas, electricity, broadband, and mobile with UW, you’ll benefit from even greater discounts on your monthly bills. For Purpl members, this is an effective way to reduce the financial burden of rising utility costs, especially during tough economic times.
  2. Simplified Billing: Managing multiple bills can be time-consuming and overwhelming, especially for those with disabilities or limited mobility. With Utility Warehouse, you get a single monthly bill for all your services, making it easier to stay on top of your expenses without the hassle of multiple payments and deadlines.
  3. UW Price Pledge: UW offers a Price Pledge, ensuring that you won’t pay more than the Big Six energy suppliers for a comparable service. This commitment to competitive pricing provides peace of mind, so you know you’re always getting a fair deal. If you do find a cheaper tariff, UW will match it or even beat it, meaning you’re consistently saving while receiving top-notch service. For Purpl members with limited incomes due to disabilities, this pledge ensures that your essential bills remain affordable in the long run.

    UW’s Price Pledge is a money-saving promise to our new customers. Save with UW when you switch three or more services, and use the UW Cashback Card to reduce your bills. If you don’t see savings in your first year with UW, they’ll pay you double the difference back and let you leave without exit fees. T&Cs apply.
  4. Peace of Mind Promise: Ensures you can switch to UW with confidence. New customers who sign up for two or more home services receive a 30-day window to change their mind without penalty. Plus, if you switch three or more services to UW, you’ll benefit from energy prices up to £50 below the Government’s price cap and receive up to £400 to cover early termination fees with your current suppliers. T&Cs apply.
  5. Access to Award-Winning Customer Service: Utility Warehouse prides itself on delivering excellent customer service. Whether you have a question about your bill or need assistance with your services, UW offers prompt and helpful support. This commitment to customer care is especially beneficial for individuals with disabilities who may need extra assistance or accessibility-friendly service options.
  6. Flexible Mobile Plans: UW offers affordable mobile deals with data, minutes, and texts included. For those with specific needs, such as accessible devices or greater reliance on mobile technology due to disability, these plans offer great flexibility and savings.

Utility Warehouse Cashback Card – How It Works

Another major benefit of joining Utility Warehouse is the Cashback Card, which can help you save money on everyday spending. Here’s how it works:

  • Earn Cashback on Purchases: Every time you use your Utility Warehouse Cashback Card at participating retailers, you earn cashback. This cashback is automatically deducted from your next monthly utility bill, meaning the more you spend on essentials, the lower your household bills will be.
  • Retailer Partnerships: The Cashback Card works at a wide range of popular retailers, both online and in-store. From grocery shopping to fuel purchases and clothing, you can rack up significant savings over time. Retailers include Sainsbury’s, M&S, Boots, and many others, ensuring that your everyday purchases turn into tangible savings.
  • No Limits on Cashback: Earn unlimited cashback when shopping at UW’s retail partners, as well as earn up to £10 a month from 1% transactions made elsewhere – so whether you’re doing weekly food shopping or making large purchases, you’ll continue to benefit and reduce your monthly UW bill further.

For Purpl members, this can be especially valuable for those managing disability related expenses. From purchasing medical supplies to home accessibility products, the cashback you accumulate can help ease the cost of living. Not only that, but you can combine this payment card with your Purpl Discounts so you can have double-savings.
