'Free' £25 Amazon Voucher with British Gas-Backed Tradesperson Booking

If you're looking to engage the services of a British Gas-backed plumber, electrician or other tradesperson, we've a way you can bag a £25 Amazon e-gift card at the same time. Make your booking via this link to Local Heroes and, once the handiwork is paid for and completed, you'll get the voucher code by email within two weeks. The offer will end on Wed 18 Dec, or when 600 codes have been claimed, whichever's sooner.

While there’s no minimum spend required, we reckon it’s unlikely you’ll ‘profit’ from this deal – so it’s just a bonus, effectively a discount on work you’d already planned to have someone do. Once you receive your £25 code, you'll have until Sun 1 Mar 2028 to spend it online at Amazon. As per Amazon's standard T&Cs, the e-gift card can’t be used to buy other gift cards or Prime membership (see our 24 Amazon Buying Tips to cut costs).
