More ********. I'm an OAP and don't get anything like 155 per week.

That will be because you are getting yours under the old scheme

Quite. But stay with your Mail version of quoting a maximum as the norm.
Anything else might be too accurate.

Even under the "old" scheme, it's possible to get more than the basic. I
currently get £126+ while my wife gets £147+. Something to do with
either being "opted out" or not.
