Winter fuel
« on: Nov 21, 2019, 05:16:07 PM »
Has anyone had the winter fuel allowance yet, or have the powers to be decided not to give it this year ?

If it was either of those, couples with the same surname at the same address would get it at the same time.  I think it could be based on when we got our state pension, mine started in May, my husband's in October.  I also got my pension several years before him.

The WASPI's weren't shouting for pension equality in those days.

We usually get ours together but my wife had her letter a week ago and it hit the bank account Tuesday this week.  No sign of mine yet. :-(
