You only get free prescriptions if you meet certain criterias. I guess they've said you don't meet one of the criteria?

Fairly certain over 60s get free prescription, outside of that if you are both working you should be paying.

Get one of those NHS pre-payments cards. I pay £10.40 a month for it to be valid for year.

I've never had any private medical care. I've paid national insurance and tax for nearly all my working life. Sorry to disappoint you.
