We received our Notification of this year’s Winter Fuel Allowance this morning

I’ve just read these posts and I was a bit worried. I felt sure that if there was a married couple living together then £200 was the qualifying amount - it was £200 for the two people.

I checked the internet and found a link. My hubby got a letter of notification and more or less at the same time £200 was paid into our account. I think you will find from the link that husband and wife do not get £200 each. In case that is what you thought.

You receive £200 winter fuel allowance per house - ie a person living alone receives £200 and a husband and wife receive £100 each. It is increased if you are over 80.

Well I got my £100 notification in the post this morning.
I expect my Wife will get hers in the next few days?

So ALL the £200 should go into my account though!:lol:

Ours came together a week ago.

Got my notification in the post too :slight_smile: it is nice to think I can turn the heating on without worrying about paying for it.

Not got mine yet, hubby’s had he’s for a week.:cry:

Same here Gabi :frowning:

Hurrah! Got mine today…gone straight in to my bank account, without any notification.

Transferred it to my savings a/c, awaiting the hefty leccy bill later.

I decided to look prompted by all of you and mine arrived today too :smiley:

Still waiting :102:
