Are there any DWP or Accountant people among you lovely ladies ? I am recently widowed a great shock, totally unexpected. Having sorted paperwork I am now clearing my head looking at revised pension and am horrified to find I am £600 short per month. I have had a very small pension in my own right since 2005 which I had topped up but that appears to have been stopped and I now get a percentage of my husbands . I don’t qualify for pension credit as I get just over the threshold, there are still bills to pay, I don’t have a lavish life style, have a small house, clapped out old car, don’t smoke or drink, and I have very small amount of savings. My children had to pay for their dads funeral.Can’t get hold of DWP.
Have other widows had their own pensions stopped. Help
