The Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed the payment date for the final £600 cost of living payments.
Millions across the country are eligible for the cash support this winter amid soaring energy bills. Households will receive the boost in a bid to help them tackle the ongoing cost of living crisis, with a total of £4.6billion being issued to older people across the UK, including Pensioner Cost of Living Payments and £11.6million Winter Fuel Payments being made this year.
The payments will be put directly into the bank accounts of those eligible, with the DWP stating that the majority of payments have now landed. The payment reference on bank statements will begin with the person's National Insurance number following by "DWP WFP".
