Martin Lewis has told readers of his newsletter that people earning less than £60,000 could be entitled to claim certain benefits. The Money Saving Expert urged people to check if they can claim, saying that £19bn-worth of benefits were going unclaimed each year, reports the Mirror Online.
He wrote: "We've long urged you to check to make sure you get all the benefits you're entitled to, knowing millions were due a share of billions. And many most in need of help, often having long paid into the system, are missing out.
"So with permission from Policy in Practice, we've taken its data of the numbers missing out on the main benefits, and added our own info on who can claim each of these many underclaimed benefits, to see if we can help get you what you're due..."
