The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has issued a warning for thousands of Brits who could be missing out on an essential cash boost worth thousands of pounds.
The government department has advised people of pension age to check if they are eligible to claim Pension Credit. It highlighted that there could be those eligible for the extra cash who are missing out.
Pension Credit claimants could be up to £3,500 a year better off. It comes after Age UK estimated that around a third of the pensioner population could be missing out on Pension Credit despite being eligible.
