This has been coming up a lot this week, so I wanted to give everyone a "head's up."
If you haven't already had a customer ask for "free phones," you will soon enough. According to this story, Safelink Wireless is now offering a free phone program for low-income families.
The service is designed for those who are already on government assistance, such as Medicaid, food stamps, etc., though Florida's Public Service Commission offers rebates for qualifying applicants through their Link Up and Lifeline programs.
Most of the customers who have asked about this so far have not been very computer literate, so please be patient while helping them navigate to the application page. Also, as one would expect the free phones seem to be generating lots of demand, so the Safelink page can be slow to load at times.
