The Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) winter fuel payment deadline is quickly approaching. For many, the sum between £250 and £600 which also includes a pensioner cost of living payment, will have been paid before Christmas.
The money is paid straight into your bank account, usually the same account you receive your state pension or benefits. DWP has confirmed on its website that payments will be made by January 13.
This means that if you are eligible for the payment, you should have received it in your bank by this date. If you haven’t received it, what should you do next?
