Important Information

Ageas Insurance Limited and Ageas Retail Limited (collectively “Ageas”, “we”, “us” or “our”) are working with Scone to offer you the opportunity to help you transform your home’s energy efficiency this Winter.

What is available to you

As an Ageas customer, we are giving you the chance to adopt sustainable behaviours around your home this Winter, as well as helping to save you money on your energy bills.  Once you sign up to the Scone App and join the Ageas Community, in addition to receiving helpful hints and tips on how to reduce your energy usage, you will also be able to join the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge, which will reward you with prizes, the more sustainable steps you take to make your home more energy efficient.

Who is Scone?

Scone works to help people make changes to their daily habits in order to reduce their carbon footprint.  This is done through an App which provides tips and suggestions on improving your energy habits.

When you sign up to the Scone App, you will also be agreeing to their Terms and Conditions of usage, so please ensure that you read these and their Privacy Policy so that you fully understand what data they need and the purposes that it will be used for.

Scone will be solely responsible for all activity relating to the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge, including, without limitation, access to the App and managing and processing the distribution of reward vouchers and prizes arising from the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge.

Please note that completion of the activity set out in section 3 of Scone’s Terms and Conditions does not form part of the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge.

How to Join the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge

In order to take part in the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge, you will need to:

  • Download the Scone App onto your own device.
  • Create your account.  You will then need to join the Ageas Community.
  • Remember to check the Scone App from the start of the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge on the 17th November 2024.
  • Start collecting your “Leaves” until the 15th December 2024 to help you climb the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge Leaderboard and try out the energy saving tips to find ways to reduce your energy consumption.
  • During the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge, you will have the opportunity to complete a home survey which Scone will use to create a home model for you.  Completion of the home survey is optional.  You are not required to complete the survey to participate in the Ageas Winter Energy Challenge.
  • If you do select to complete the home survey, Scone will create a home model for you, which will combine available data sources with the information you provide to them such as your property size, age and heating systems.  The model estimates an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating by analysing energy consumption factors such as insulation and energy sources. 
  • In addition, Scone will also provide you with recommendations on what you can do to improve your EPC rating.  These are purely for your personal information and aimed at providing suggestions on how to optimise energy savings.
  • During the four week Challenge, Scone will keep you updated on your progress towards saving energy and money.  If you do not complete the home survey, you will not see the impact of your actions and you will not receive a personal energy recommendation.

  1. To enter the Challenge, you must be an existing Ageas policyholder, have received the link to participate in the Challenge and have downloaded and signed-up to the Scone App (the “App”).
  2. Entry is limited to one Entrant per household.  “Entrant” shall be defined as an existing Ageas policyholder.  Entrants found to be using multiple email accounts and/or false details to enter more than once will be disqualified and deemed ineligible to earn Rewards.

All Entrants will see the same set of Tasks and not all tasks will be listed at the Start Date. Tasks will appear in the App at different times throughout the Challenge. Tasks may include quizzes and simple actions you can take within the home to adopt sustainable behaviours.  You will be required to indicate in the App when a task has been completed, and may be asked to submit additional information, such as a photograph, to evidence that the task is complete.  The more tasks you complete, the more Leaves you can earn, which be converted into “Coins” for you to spend on rewards. Ten (10) Leaves is equal to one (1) Coin.  Your total count of Leaves, and their equivalent value in Coins, will be collected in a “Wallet” contained within the App.   You will receive email notification when you have earned enough Coins to spend on Reward Vouchers, and may also receive updates via push notifications if you have selected to receive them from the App.
