| 0:04.9 | Hello, I'm Martin Lewis, and this is the cunningly named The Martin Lewis Podcast. |
| 0:09.6 | I do wonder what that's all going to be about. |
| 0:12.0 | Usually much of it comes from my BBC Radio 5 live show with Nahal Arthur Nyaka, |
| 0:16.5 | but there's bonus money-saving tips just for you lucky, lucky podcast listeners. |
| 0:28.6 | In today's show, in just the last tax year alone, over one million people overpaid their student loans, and millions more likely did it in the years preceding. |
| 0:31.6 | So if you've got an outstanding student loan, you may be able to reclaim hundreds or thousands of pounds back. That's also the subject |
| 0:39.8 | of today's mastermind. Then is PPI reclaiming coming back? There's a new test case that means |
| 0:45.9 | millions may be due a share of up to 18 billion quid. Should you get involved? Plus, |
| 0:51.9 | wills. Should all your children be left equal amounts, or is there a case for giving one more? |
| 0:57.5 | In my deals today, I've got cheap cinema tickets and an important warning for women age 66 and over. |

| 1:28.3 | I'm going to make sure everybody is. |
| 1:33.3 | Can we talk about inflation? |
| 1:35.3 | Because we did get the news that it has remained steady at 6.7% last month, still, of course, wide of the target that the Bank of England sets itself, bringing an end to three consecutive months of falls. Now, food prices were lower, but that was offset by the |
| 1:48.9 | cost of petrol and diesel. Okay, Martin, what did you make of the news? So it's worth looking at the |
| 1:54.7 | month-on-month inflation. We talk about the annual inflation. The month-on-month inflation is up |
| 1:59.1 | 0.6%, which means over a wide basket of |
| 2:02.0 | goods, prices are 0.6% higher this month than last month. Prices are still going up. Inflation |
| 2:07.9 | coming down does not mean prices going down. It means prices are not going up as quickly. |
