As many as 100,000 people could be owed up to £6,000 because of a Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) error, money man Martin Lewis has said. He spoke about it during his ITV show on Tuesday.
Mr Lewis explained that people should act to make sure they get what they're owed, saying: "Make sure you look this up if it smells like it is relevant to you or someone you know. There are hundreds of thousands due an average of £6,000 back in underpaid state pensions because of a former DWP error."
He went on to say that married women and widows may have been unpaid. He added that it was "complicated", reports the Liverpool ECHO.
