Concessions
If you (or someone in your household) are aged 75 or over, you are entitled to a free TV Licence. You still need to apply for the licence by providing TV Licensing with your date of birth and national insurance number. Once verified, the free licence will be renewed automatically and you won’t need to apply for a new one when it expires.
