    Use a benefits calculator to check.

    If your only income is your state pension your local water company may offer a discount on your water bills.

    You maybe entitled to pension credit or pension savings credit depending how much your SRP IS
    If he has only recently reached pension age there will not be any entitlement to savings credit because it has not existing for people reaching pension age since April 2016.

    if the state pension is the full new state pension amount as stated there will not be any guarantee pension credit entitlement either (unless there are extra premiums to be included in the calculation)
