DWP £150 cost of living payment will start to be paid into six million bank accounts from this week

There are now just days left until benefit claimants will see a £150 cost of living payment start to drop into their banks. This will be the second disability cost of living grant with the first one sent out in September 2022.

And more than six million people will be eligible to receive this payment from the Department of Work and Pension (DWP), reports Lancs Live. The money is aimed at helping people with rising costs. People must have received a payment – or later receive a payment – of one of these qualifying benefits for 1 April 2023 to receive the grant.

Benefit claimants do not need to apply for the money. Those being paid a “qualifying disability benefit” will be paid automatically from June 20.
