On the WFP yes, it comes through automatically.

Thank you for making me think about it - I went to the gov site and it sounds like I'll be getting more than I thought, if I've read it right.

I think , this year I might be eligible to receive a Winter Fuel Payment according to www. govuk dates .( born before 25th Sept 1957)But according to my Scottish Power advisory leaflet the qualifying date is born before 26th Sept 1955 . If I qualify it should come through automatically ?
Then there's the Warm Discount Scheme which appears to come from your supplier but you have to be in receipt of some benefits - you have to apply for this ? Am I correct ? smile
