Not sure if this the correct place to ask this, but are TV licences still free for 75s and older, and if so how do you go about it if anyone knows please?

Thank you Yes Smithy, there are just a few advantages to getting old grin

Yes, DH will be 75 next year so we will get it free too.

Even more goodies when you're 80 - an extra 25p per week on your pension. I'm still trying to decide how to spend it!

5 Shillings (25p) was a weeks school dinner money when I was in Primary school! Wouldn't even buy a loaf of bread now.

Thanks for this thread; got my 75th coming up in a few months and had forgotten that this freebie is still available. Yippee!
