The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is facing criticism as around 400,000 people have had their State Pension frozen, with some warned of potential loss of their entire pension pot. Additionally, nearly 500,000 individuals will have benefit payments stopped by September. HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) admits it may owe £2,000 on average to 430,000 UK households. Various initiatives have been announced, including benefits rising early for some individuals and opportunities for financial perks from HMRC. Virgin Media offers £250 off bills with a deadline of March 17, while BT and Sky customers can reduce broadband bills to £10 before April. Pensioners are cautioned about potential financial shortfalls amidst the Cost of Living crisis.
