This Morning viewers were left fuming after Tuesday’s episode (March 25), as Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley were accused of constantly interrupting Martin Lewis while he tried to give out what many felt was vital financial advice. The Money Saving Expert, 52, appeared on the ITV show to break down how people could top up their state pension by buying back missing National Insurance years — a time-sensitive opportunity, as the deadline to do so is looming on April 5.
Martin explained that the system changed in 2016, and people can backdate payments as far as 2006. It’s a rare chance to fill in the gaps and potentially boost your pension significantly, reported the Express.
