British Gas is offering customers the chance to win five years’ worth of free electricity during this Saturday’s World Cup quarter-final. As the nation rallies behind England on the world stage, the energy provider will award £4,400 worth of electricity for each goal the team scores during the match.
All British Gas customers will be automatically entered into the prize draw, with winners selected at random after the final whistle. A British Gas spokesperson said: “There’s nothing quite like getting behind England together, and we wanted to give our customers another reason to celebrate every goal this weekend.
“We’re always looking for ways to give back to our customers, whether that’s through prizes, rewards or helping them save money at home.”
This week’s giveaway follows a successful competition last weekend, where England’s three goals against Mexico meant that three British Gas customers each won the £4,400 electricity prizes.
One winner, Terrence from Nottingham, said: “This is fantastic news. As a pensioner, this will make a huge difference and help me enormously. I’d like to thank British Gas for the call and for this amazing prize.”
Second winner Sophie, a mum of two from Kent, said: “Ecstatic!! I’ve never won anything in my life. I’m speechless.”
Thomas Tuchel’s England squad is set to compete against Norway in the World Cup quarter-finals on Saturday, July 11. The Three Lions progressed following a nail-biting 3-2 victory against Mexico in the round of 16 last Sunday.
The match, which will take place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, is scheduled to kick off at 10pm BST (5pm local time).
