Free WiFi Now Available on Borough's Busiest Streets

---

Register to receive 30 minutes free each day in our town centres

Free WiFi is now awailable in streets within the borough's three town centres.

Following a deal between H&F Council and telecoms company Arqiva, you can now search for '_Free HF WiFi' on your laptop, smartphone or tablet in the list of available Wi-Fi networks and then select it and connect.

Registered users get 30 minutes of free Wi-Fi a day and can buy more time on a pay-as-you go basis. There is no time limit for accessing services on the council’s website. 

The council says this isn’t costing taxpayers a penny as telecoms company Arqiva has paid to install its network on the borough’s lampposts and will share any income with the council to spend on services for residents.

" We hope residents and visitors will find the new service useful when they need a quick bit of information from the internet while out and about in the borough," says Cllr Ben Coleman, H&F Cabinet Member for Commercial Revenue and Resident Satisfaction.

" We also hope that being able to access the council’s website free 24 hours a day will encourage residents to make use of the growing number of council services online, from paying bills to applying for a parking permit."
