- Martin Lewis has issued an urgent warning to Universal Credit claimants regarding free prescriptions and dental care.
- The warning is directed at individuals who have transferred from Tax Credits to Universal Credit.
- Claimants could face a fine of up to £100 for incorrectly claiming these free healthcare services.
