ESA credit only claim was created by Claimants
Could anyone advise me if I am entitled to any of the cost of living payments. I have a credit only ESA claim as I receive an occupational pension of £519 a month which puts me over the £107 a week ESA I am entitled to in the work related group. I receive £403 per month housing benefit my rent is £500 and that is all the income I have. I am struggling to pay the increased energy even with the £66 per month. I am waiting for my Pip tribunal and will reach state pension age March 2023. I am on the poverty line can anyone help.

Hi Claimants

Welcome to the forum.

You might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is; www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/guides-for-claimants/faq/forum

To be eligible to claim cost of living payments, you need to be in receipt of a means tested/disability benefit
