Netflix deals
There are three pricing options for Netflix: £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.

Hi there, looks like the Mubi £1 offer has expired or is the link wrong? Cheers
Ah, my fault – for some reason the link change didn’t work. Should be fine now
Hi
The one year Mubi hack doesn’t work anymore , once you cancel Scribd your subscription to Mubi gets cancelled a few weeks later.
Thanks Si!
britbox is now only 7day free trial not 30
Cashback for Disney+ on Quidco and Topcashback does not seem to be available any more.
Hi Dorit, yes sadly it seemed to end about 4pm. I put a little update note on there earlier. Fingers crossed it comes back!
Hi,
re Disney+ : there is another option if you are a pickmypostcode member. If you sign up through them you get £20 added to your bonus. Obviously you will only get this if you win, but better than nothing (and if you were so lucky and were to win on there twice you get it twice 🙂
