The pension credits only bring you up to the current pension level, done to help out the poorer ones on the old system.
If you have paid off your mortgage, then that outgoing is no longer there, but you can't avoid rent if you don't own your own house.
Yes there are better off people, no system is perfect, but this year there are a lot of people who have no choices left.
