This system designed to reduce your digital budget targets a specific audience and offers real support to those who are struggling to keep up.
Daily life goes digital, whether we like it or not. Online procedures, medical appointments, follow-up on a file, job search… everything requires a connection. The problem is that so-called “low price” offers are not always enough for those who count every euro. They exist, but do not always meet the needs of those who have the most difficulty staying connected.
In this context, many people receiving a social minimum give up a traditional subscription, not by choice but by budgetary constraints. Result: an unstable connection, impossible steps to follow and, in the long run, digital isolation which complicates everything. Fortunately, an aid system targets precisely these situations. It combines an internet subscription, television and a landline telephone, fiber or ADSL depending on the address, for a single price, without commitment. Added to this is the possibility of purchasing a refurbished computer at a reduced rate, within three months of subscribing, thanks to a partnership with a specialized company. A series of workshops is also offered, online or in person, to learn how to use your equipment, secure your data or use social networks as part of a job search. These are simple sessions, designed to put at ease those who sometimes feel overwhelmed.
To access the program, the rules are fairly straightforward. People who receive the ASPA (solidarity allowance for the elderly) can benefit immediately, upon presentation of recent proof. For others, everything depends on the CAF or MSA family quotient, which must be less than or equal to 700 euros. A certificate is enough to verify the situation, and there are even simulators to quickly get your bearings. Once eligibility is confirmed, the subscription can be activated without further formality. The refurbished computer is optional, but many choose this option, its price (169 euros) making it much more accessible. Without forgetting that paying in several installments allows you to spread the expense. As for the workshops, they are free and open to all subscribers, without additional conditions. In short, this famous helping hand is none other than the Coup de Pouce Internet solidarity offer, set up by France Travail and Orange, and offered at 15.99 euros per month, without commitment.
The idea: to offer a unique formula, affordable, easy to use, and accompanied by concrete support to master everyday tools. At a time when the digital budget is skyrocketing, this is a timely offer. So, take the test and see if you too can benefit from these big savings. And, if you’re not eligible, now is the time to spread the word to your loved ones.
