Martin Lewis has issued some important advice to people still waiting for the £200 alternative fuels energy support payment. The money is for households who are not connected to the mains gas grid and instead use different fuels to heat their home.
On a recent episode of the Martin Lewis Money Show, the financial expert explained that while the Government says it has already paid the £200 payments to those who qualify, some people are yet to receive the cash. The explanation came after he was asked a question from a viewer called Stephen, the Mirror reports.
The question, read by Martin's co-host Angellica Bell, asked: “I live in our house and use domestic heating oil for my central heating and hot water. I have not yet received the £200 from the Government that was supposed to be credited to my electricity account as part of the domestic energy health scheme, how do I get this?”
