Welcome @Jaqui_Somers! That’s an interesting question, especially since broadband is pretty much an essential service these days. So far we can’t see anyone offering free broadband for the over 60s, and the way that offers work has definitely changed in the last few years since we used to see ā€œfree for x length of timeā€ offers.

However there are a number of ways to get subsidised broadband - and depending on where you live, what you need and how flexible you are with location, you could seriously reduce what you need to pay for your broadband. If you scroll down on our ā€œCan you get free internetā€ article you’ll find some suggestions that might be worth exploring.

And if anyone has a suggestion to add, we’re all ears!

I haven’t heard of free broadband for over 60s, but you can get a Social Tariff if you are on disability benefits or are a low income household Jaqui. It was posted about on here a few weeks ago. Here is the guide.
