Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis had an important message for UK uni students ahead of his show tonight.
The financial guru will be on The Martin Lewis Money Show tonight at 8pm on ITV and has urged graduates to tune in.
According to Martin, millions of people have overpaid on their student loans and could be due some well-needed compensation.
It could be a great benefit or rebate just in time for Christmas or the New Year.
If you know someone who's graduated or left uni anytime in the last ten or fifteen years, pls suggest they watch @itvMLshow tonight 8pm. One of my big 3 topics will be explaining step by step how millions have overpaid student loans and can get £100s back easily and at speed.

According to Money Saving Expert, "In the last tax year alone, over ONE MILLION university leavers overpaid their student loans, according to our Freedom of Information (FOI) request."
How it works
Over recent years, the Student Loans Company has introduced several initiatives to reduce overpayments and improve the repayment process for students.
This includes introducing an online repayment service, issuing automatic refunds and actively contacting those who might have overpaid.
While these changes have helped to reduce the number of students making overpayments, more than a million former students still overpaid in the 2022/23 tax year – so it's well worth checking.
The Martin Lewis Money Show will air on ITV1 at 8pm tonight - make sure you tune in to learn how to save potentially £100s!
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
