Back up now, only checked as BT just moved my friend to the standard package from Essentials (on UC no-income) now the hassle to get it moved back.

Edit looking at wrong page

I'm still getting a BT-generated 404 error (page not found). Do you have a link to the Home Essentials page? The one I have is https://www.bt.com/broadband/home-essentials

Which page are you going to?

As even when looking at

https://www.bt.com/help/here-for-you/financial-support

the Essentials link on the page does not work.

I used the link upthread https://www.bt.com/terms/home-essentials

Just noticed it's not page that you can apply for it, so ignore my last comment.

Yes, that works but no option to purchase?

Hyperoptic is cheaper and no contract, might be worth a try?

150Mb for £13 pcm is the one I would go for.

Hyperoptic doesn't have UK-wide availability.

Altior

Yes, coverage for them is the first hurdle if born_again is interested. Or registering interest if not currently covered.

Interesting provider I thought as most of the other social tariffs appear to be reasonably slow. And they appear to take this space quite seriously Fair Fibre Framework

OK, after being told Home Essentials is going up to £18, I now get an e-mail telling me it's staying the same price

This page seems to confirm it https://www.bt.com/tell-me-more?s_cid=con_bt_eng-bb-nopp_bt_email_na_pricechange26_2025-12-12

This is the link to all BT prices (you'll need to do a search for Home Essentials)
