Over 60? You Could Be Entitled To These Benefits - Worth £4K

from Retirement and Money Show · host Saq Hussain

Do you know exactly what you're entitled to when you turn 60?Most people assume all the big benefits arrive at once. They don't. At 60 you get free prescriptions, free eye tests, and a Senior Railcard — worth about £700 a year. But the real money doesn't kick in until State Pension age, and the gap between 60 and 67 is the expensive part of your sixties that catches most people out.In this episode, I go through every benefit available from age 60, what has to wait until State Pension age, why 760,000 pensioners aren't claiming Pension Credit worth £1.6 billion, and the gateway benefits that a single claim can unlock — from council tax help to free dental care.With over 25 years advising individuals and major organisations on pensions and retirement strategy, I've seen how often people miss entitlements simply because nobody told them to check.Watch this episode in full on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@retirementandmoney
