Social tariffs, also known as discounted broadband or mobile services, are designed to provide affordable internet and phone options for people on lower incomes or who receive certain government benefits. These tariffs aim to ensure that everyone can stay connected, regardless of their income level.
Typically, to qualify for social tariffs, individuals must be receiving certain benefits, including but not limited to:
Universal Credit
Pension Credit
Income Support
Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
Social tariffs provide significant savings compared to standard broadband and mobile plans. This makes them a budget-friendly option for those struggling with bills.
Remember!
Usually, applying for a social tariff is straightforward. However, the process may require proof of eligibility, such as evidence of receiving certain benefits, so it's important to be prepared to provide documentation.
Each provider may have specific criteria, so it’s essential to check directly with your service provider for details.
