Core streaming service deals

Disney + deals

The streaming service from Disney launched on 24th March 2020 in the UK. It has all the old Disney movies as well as new series in the worlds of Star Wars and Marvel. It costs £7.99 a month or £79.99 a year. Find deals here.

NOW TV deals

I love NOW TV, particularly if you want Sky Atlantic but don’t want Sky. There are often some great deals on its streaming packages which I update on this dedicated page.

Netflix deals

There are four pricing options for Netflix: £4.99, £6.99, £10.99 and £15.99. You can no longer get a full free trial. It’s harder to save with Netflix, but there are a few deals, which I’ve listed on this page.

Amazon Prime Video

Prime Video comes with a standard Amazon Prime membership (£8.99 a month or £95 a year from September 2022), but it can also be signed up to without all those extras for £5.99 a month.

Apple TV + deals

There are frequent free trials for newbies and existing customers, meaning Apple TV+ can be one of the cheapest options out there.

Paramount+ deals

You’ll be able to get a free Paramount+ trial when you first sign up, but it might be best waiting until there’s a 30 day offer.

Discovery+ deals

You can get an Entertainment only pass for £3.99 a month, or one with Eurosport on top for £6.99 a month, though there are ways to get it for free via BT and Sky. More on this dedicated Discovery+ page.

YouTube Premium deals

YouTube Premium: Family and student plans

If you pay for more than one account in your household a Family plan works out cheaper at £17.99 a month. Or if you can validate your student ID you can pay just £6.99.

YouTube Premium: One months free

The standard free trial for YouTube Premium is one month (it’s occasionally increased). You’ll get ad-free viewing, the ability to download and access to YouTube Music Premium (a bit like Spotify). You can only get this if you are a new user of YouTube Premium, YouTube Music or Google Play Music. At the end of the trial it’s £11.99 a month, so cancel if you don’t want to keep paying.

Mubi deals

Mubi shows a selection of cult, indie and world cinema. It’s £9.99 a month. You also get a free weekly ticket to the cinema – but only at selected cinemas for a pre-chosen film. Sometimes there are deals like three months for £1.

Mubi: 3 months free

This offer gets you 3 month for free. It’ll renew at full price if you don’t cancel before the end of this offer.

Mubi: 30-day free trial

The standard Mubi free trial is just a week, but this offer gets you a month for free.

Mubi: Three months for £1 (expired)

For a limited time you can pay £1 and get three months of Mubi. If you continue the subscription after this it goes to full price.

ITV X deals

ITV Hub is now ITVX. It’s free to watch most of the content, but if you pay £5.99 a month you’ll get Premium which has even more shows, access to Britbox and no adverts.

ITVX: £3.99 a month for a year

Use the discount code ITVXSAVE13 to get a £2 discount every month for 13 months. After this, the price will jump up to £5.99. There’s no published end date for this offer.

ITVX: 7 day free trial

You can try ITVX for a week for free, though you’ll be charged after this if you don’t cancel.

ITVX: One year for £59.99

You’ll get 12 months for the price of 10 if you pay upfront for the whole year.

Lionsgate + (formally Starzplay) deals

Starzplay is now called Lionsgate+, and it’s a film and TV streaming service with original content as well as a range of classics. You can watch it via the Lionsgate+ website, or through services such as Prime Video, Apple TV, Rakuten and Roku.

You’ll pay £5.99 a month to access the service. Amazon often runs £1.99 offers for six months. I’ll share anything similar here when they’re available.

Lionsgate+: 30 day free trial

New users can get a 30-day free trial via the Lionsgate+ website or Amazon Prime. It’s likley this is just a relaunch offer and it’ll drop back to the previous 7-days.
