important notices
Due to power outages and downtown Victoria connectivity issues between Aug30 to Sep2 some Free-Net services went down. Our main tech support volunteer also experienced food poisoning, so during this week of Sep 7-11 our tech support volunteers will be addressing your inquiries as soon as they can. Thank you for your patience.

Even if it looks like it came from one of our official e-mail addresses, if it asks you to click on a web-link and type in your password it is not from us! Never follow links in e-mails claiming to be from Free-Net or a financial institution that is outside the original web address.
