Cold Weather Payments should be received automatically, however, Britons can take action if they do not receive it.
This can be done by reaching out to a local pension centre or Jobcentre Plus office.
In addition to the cold weather sum, Winter Fuel Payments are being made to pensioners who were born on or before October 5, 1954.
To be eligible, these Britons must have lived in the UK for at least one day during the qualifying week of September 21 to 27.
These individuals could receive between £100 and £300 dependent on their circumstances to help with their heating bills.
