Could someone you know be missing out on pension credit?

Up to 800,000 households in Great Britain aren’t claiming what they’re entitled to.

Pension credit is a weekly payment that helps people over state pension age with everyday living costs – but many don’t realise they’re eligible.

Pension credit is also a gateway benefit, which means it can unlock extra support such as:

1. winter fuel payment
   a one-off payment ranging from £100-£300
   
   
2. a free TV licence (ages 75+),
   worth £169.50 per year
   
   
3. warm home discount – a £150 one-off
   
   
4. credit applied to your electricity bill
   
   
5. council tax discount
