How will the free electricity will be applied?
Customers who sign up to the Next Direct 18m v1 tariff will receive free electricity for three full days – Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

Julian Lennertz, Chief Commercial Officer at E.ON Next, said: “With our holiday gift of three days of free electricity, we want to help our customers enjoy what matters most – without worrying about the cost.”
Who qualifies for the offer?
The deal is open to both new and existing customers who switch to the Next Direct 18m v1 tariff by 12 December 2025.
To be eligible, households need to have a working smart meter and homeowners must opt in to share half-hourly consumption data.
The tariff, priced at £1,600 for a typical dual-fuel household, is currently the cheapest 18-month fixed product on the market, according to E.ON Next.
What customers need to do?
Eligible customers simply need to sign up to the Next Direct 18m v1 tariff before the deadline to secure the three days of free electricity.
E.ON Next will automatically track usage through the customer’s smart meter, so there is no need to submit readings or claim manually.
The company is also offering energy-saving tips by encouraging households to make the most of the festive period by using timers for Christmas lights, reducing screen time, lowering thermostats slightly and cooking more efficiently to keep energy use – and costs – down.
