Hi honyman

I sincerely hope that you are feeling as well as you possibly can be today? I am so sorry but I really do not know anything about this sort of thing? However, I have pasted you a link from a similar question posted 10 months ago. So I hope that you find it useful:

I want to wish you all the bets of luck with this, and I genuinely hope that some other members can come along and help answer your question?

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken

I have a widows pension from my OH works and it is deducted from my ESA, every time I get a annual rise they take that off as well. Hope you are well, gentle hugs.

thanks sophie22 for your reply but I do not receive my pension yet it was set up to pay out when I reach 65 it matured when I was 55 and it is just sitting now getting bigger if I had carried on working I would have not received it till the age of 65 but now dwp are looking into it to see if they can make me take it before its date
