Write a cheque payable to HM Treasury and send it to No 11.

[Huge]

I imagine if you sent a cheque to 11 Downing Street ...

[hugh]

The method of receipt has nothing to do with the method of return.

[hugh]

You make your own personal decision - and stop trying to tell others what to do.

If Gordon mac Shite-Features was Chancellor he'd assume his winter fuel allowance had come and chuck it on the stove.

Christ, are you trying to give TNP a stroke?

I was expecting a letter but the payment was in my account on 23/11 with no notification - and £50 short of last year. Still, it's half my energy costs or nearly 100 Wetherspoons beer tokens so I'm grateful :-)

[hugh]

Yes we know. Someone suggested that it should be. Do pay attention. Each *household* receives it (£200) payable on reaching state retirement age for women. IIRC it's £300 if one member of the household is 80+

[Peter Johnson]

My letter arrived today although the money arrived in my bank last week.

would take money from the taxpayer in such an underhand manner when you don't need it.

[Roger Chapman]

That's not actually inconsistent with my statement. The letter says something to the effect that payment will be made within the next n weeks but I don't bother checking to see when mine arrives so for all I know I might be treated similarly.

Gak! Spluttuer! You owe me a new keyboard!
