Changing Government pension payments

Unfortunately I have lost all my previously saved emails from Martin's Money saving Expert. Can anyone point me towards (or give me details) of the article where Martin suggested changing from 4 weekly pension payments to weekly to obtain a little more money each year. Look forward to your help

Can't help with the Email. But it can't have been much other that weekly State Pension payments are in advance ... whereas 4 / 13 weekly are in arrears?
So you get the money 'up front' with weekly .... so there's an overall benefit? Except some would consider (if the SP is a significant portion of your income) that throws you into weekly budgeting .... which can be more difficult with bills mainly monthly?
