If you receive financial support, our Flex Packages are a simple, low cost way to help you stay in touch with the people important to you.

You can view and apply for our low cost telephone and full fibre flex packages here . Please note that these packages are subject to eligible criteria which you can find below.
 

Eligibility criteria

Our Flex Packages are only available to customers who pass the following criteria.

  • Income Support
  • Pension Credit
  • Job Seekers Allowance
  • Housing Benefit
  • Personal Independence Payment
  • Disability Living Allowance
  • Attendance Allowance

  • Care Home residents and Lifeline customers who are referred to us via Social Services
  • Care Leavers
  • Employment and Support Allowance (EAS) (Incoming related)
  • Individuals on the Government's Coronavirus (COVID-19) Shielded Patients List until such time as Coronavirus no longer requires these individuals to practice social shielding

Anyone applying must provide us with proof of eligibility with their application. The person eligible (as above) must also be the person whose name is on the bill.
