That is possible.

If you think you meet the conditions applicable to the social Internet offer:

1. you should check whether the characteristics of your operator’s (or another operator’s) social Internet offer for fixed Internet meet your needs;
2. if that is the case, you choose a provider of the social Internet offer to apply to;
3. The latter will forward your application to the FPS Economy, which will check the granting conditions.

Mind you, after you have cancelled the subscription on which the social discount was granted (“old” social tariff), you lose that discount forever. After 1 March 2024 only applications for the social Internet offer can be submitted.

No, you cannot make use of both formulas at the same time.

Those who want to benefit from the new social Internet offer:

• have to meet the specific conditions applicable to the social Internet offer.
  Mind you, those conditions are different from the conditions that apply to the social discount on the telecom bill, which could be applied for up to 1 March 2024 (“old” social tariff);
• do not already have an “old” social tariff within the family.

No, the choice is yours. 

The social Internet offer means you get fixed Internet access for the price of 19 euro per month (or 40 euro for a bundle). The social Internet offer includes 150 GB of data and a minimum speed of 30 Mbps. If that does not meet your requirements you cankeep your old social tariff, which consists of a maximum discount of 11.5 euro on your telecom bill.

However, by accepting the social Internet offer you can no longer apply again for a social discount on a normal telecom subscription (“old” social tariff) later on. So check, before changing, if the social internet offer corresponds to the needs of your household.

You keep the discount unless one of the following situations applies to you:

1. you no longer meet the conditions ;
2. you have changed your contract or tariff plan with the same operator;
3. you have switched operators;
4. you have moved as a consequence of which fixed Internet is no longer provided at the same address;
5. the tariff plan for which you have a social discount is no longer sold by your operator.

• a certificate of the payment of family allowances, obtained from the family allowances fund;
• a certificate indicating that the beneficiary has a handicap of at least 66%; this certificate is available at the mutual insurance fund (mutualité/ziekenfonds) or at the FPS Social Security - DG Disabled persons;
• a certificate of the household composition obtained at the municipal administration (service Population/dienst Bevolking) of the beneficiary;
• a copy of the ruling (of the justice of peace or of the youth court) indicating that the grandchildren have been entrusted to the beneficiary by a legal decision;
• a copy of a CPAS/OCMW certificate proving that the beneficiary receives the social integration income in accordance with the Act of May 26, 2002;
