    I’m not aware of there being any replacement for pension credit. 

    I can’t tell you what the payment is for I’m afraid. Usually when you receive a payment from DWP it will have some letters next to it, doesn’t it have anything like that? 

    If you think it’s from pension credit then you can ring to ask them. 

    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
