State Pension 2012/13

Has the DWP started sending out letters advising of the new payments yet? ISTR that they had arrived by this time last year

Tha calculations have evidently been made (there are in the new tax code).

Not over bothered about the amount - but the letter is a useful ID document

    Yes, a couple of weeks ago but you can't expect them to send them all out at once but let's hope that they get them all done before the postage rates go up.
    The only thing that is constant is change.

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton

    Ah but they have a contract with one of these bulk mailing companies who doubtless spin out the process anyway (understandably) - I suspect the price is fixed for now.

    I'll carry on being patient:)
