What's with the Heating Allowance this year?
MrsD had a letter yesterday saying that she's entitled to a £250 payment because she's the right age and lives with someone (me) who is already eligible.
This reads, to me, that we'll both be getting the payment. Is this correct?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

The same thing happened to us. We both got a letter the same day. Mine said as I was the right age I was eligible to £250. I thought it was per household not per person
 
Just remembered something

went for a short ride yesterday and approached a main road
turned left onto it and as I turned left I noticed a bike coming towards me
On MY SIDE OF THE ROAD

he just road happily along towards me, no attempt to stop or get onto teh pavement or anything just rode on towards me
In the end I stopped and let him past on my left
no acknowledgement or anything - just happily riding along on the wrong side of the road

shocking thing was that he was probably in his fifties or something - I expected an idiot teenager!!!

people are weird

The Gov web site doesn't mention the living with someone in the same household so It appears to be £250 each.

Only I have received a letter....addressed to me.
MrsD has not had one.

Until I read this I thought it was per person.......we used to ger £100 per person.
I have just looked at various sites and am no clearer.
I know parliament is full of idiots but surely one of them could make a clear statement:wacko:

It was £200 per household. If there were two people in the household it was split between them. Quite what happens / happened if there were additional adults in the household who were not "partners" I am not sure.
