Hi Everyone a very distressed lady came to me about a problem a "friend" has, this is all i know...... Her friend's mother died in December. She was in her early 90s and had been a widow for about 7 years. She had been in receipt of Pension Credit for some time, although she had queried her eligibility at the time of the award as she did not think she was eligible. the friend is sorting out her mother's affairs and the Pension Credit people have said her mother was overpaid and asking for the return of £10k, obvouisly from her estate. Even though she did not go into detail of how the overpayment actually happened, i feel she should try and get some answers rather that just pay...what do you think?
