The winter fuel payment now only helps older people on low incomes getting certain benefits, like pension credit. Many missed out.

The rule change upset people. It was unfair to those with small incomes. More will get the payment in 2025, but details are not clear yet.
You get £200 or £300 based on age and benefits. Couples get one payment. It's paid automatically in November or December.
To get the winter fuel payment, most need pension credit. This helps with costs like council tax. Many who can get pension credit don't claim it.
Scotland will have a new payment for pensioners by 2025. Northern Ireland gives a one-time payment for heating costs.
