Thank you.
Someone told me the correct would be:

Is the form above incorrect?

It is very casual; you might hear it but would not read it in an advertisement.

The correct answer is free.

It is not FOR free.

Free is an adjective or an adverb. You never use "for" in front of either.

It is rather unfortunate that this is used by many. We live in an era where correcting a person is unacceptable. As such, grammar and the language itself is being watered down.

I would normally say for free, but the online Oxford Dictionary lists for free as informal, while the online Collins Dictionary labels it "not standard". I'm so used to hearing and saying for free that free by itself sounds a little odd to me.

Do you think in this situation 'where' is wrong and the usual usage of 'in which=where' cannot be used here?

Yes, I think you cannot. 'Where' is informally acceptable in cases in which space of some kind is concerned, but here the context ('era') is patently time. Use 'in which' or 'when'.
