Martin Lewis on DWP benefits that could cut your broadband or phone bill to £10
Martin Lewis said eligible households could cut broadband bills to £10 as millions of benefit claimants remain unaware of social tariffs.
- Consumer expert Martin Lewis is urging DWP claimants to investigate 'social tariffs,' which can significantly reduce monthly broadband and phone bills for eligible households.
- Designed for those on benefits like Universal Credit or Pension Credit, these packages offer essential connectivity without mid-contract price hikes, providing a lower-cost alternative to standard plans.
- Providers like EE Basics, Vodafone Fibre, and Virgin Media Essential Broadband offer packages ranging from £10 to £23 monthly, with most featuring speeds exceeding 30 Mbit/s.
- Claimants can identify available plans through Ofcom's website, or contact their current provider to switch services without incurring penalty fees.
- Millions of households currently miss out on these savings due to lack of awareness, though the primary account holder must be the person receiving the qualifying benefit.
