If you're an OAP and eligible for the Winter fuel payment..have you received it yet?
Was it paid with your pension/ pension credits or seperate?
Thankyou.

I'm in Scotland and I think it's called Pension Age Winter Heating Payment here.
I've not received it or any notification about it yet.
I don't know how much I'm entitled to. Tbh having received no payment last year it will be a big relief to get anything this year.
My heating has gone on in the mornings for the last 3 days - first time this winter.
And so I'm now worrying about the cost of it.

Had my letter saying 'coming soon'!- it will be paid in separately to my pension but into the same account.

I’ve had a letter saying I’ll get it, but0 it stated it would be December before I got it. No worries.👍

My dad (88) received it today, he got £300.

Had the letter. It says the beginning of December. 👍

It's a separate payment and is made between November and December - no specific date. Good info here: https://www.ageuk.org.uk/information-advice/money-legal/benefits-entitlements/winter-fuel-payment/
