MILLIONS of people will get extra cash from next week to help them cover rising energy bills.
People getting Universal Credit are among those who will get a £324 direct payment to their bank account.
Everyone on means-tested benefits is getting the cash as part of a package of measures from the government.
That means those on Universal Credit and legacy benefits like tax credits will get the cash.
The lowest income pensioners will also get the help, on top of a separate £300 payment going out to all over state pension age from this week.
