The discount makes 21st-century broadband and the access it provides to jobs, healthcare, and educational resources more affordable to low-income consumers.

Lifeline offers eligible low-income subscribers a monthly discount of up to $9.25, and those on tribal lands can save up to $34.25 per month.

Subscribers can get a Lifeline discount on either a wireline or a wireless service, but not both at the same time. Broadband Internet service and broadband-voice bundles are also supported by Lifeline. The FCC prohibits a household from having more than one Lifeline service.

Do you know that you can get a Lifeline phone from AirTalk Wireless if you are eligible?
