Martin Lewis money-saving tips are a way of life for many in cost-of-living crisis-hit Britain. But even the money-saving guru himself was astonished at one viewer's success story.
On The Martin Lewis Money Show Live on Tuesday (March 21), the expert's co-presenter Angellica Bell read out a testimonial that made the audience gasp. And it put to rest any doubt in viewers' minds as to whether following the Martin Lewis way is worth it.
Angellica said: "This is from Edward, and he says, 'You said on the show that you can claim your PPI for a tax refund. So I filled in an R40 form, I sent it off to HMRC and within about six months I received my cheque for the sum of £2,616.50!
"To Martin and the team, thank you for your help."
After whistling appreciatively at the amount, Martin explained: "So my guess on that would be to get that much there, you're probably a non-taxpayer where of course you have a much bigger amount that you can have tax-free if you weren't paying tax on the interest.
"But for many people, these are big sums, don't ignore it."
