Disney+ is offering a special discounted rate on subscriptions to compete with Netflix and HBO Max. New and eligible returning subscribers can now enjoy Disney+ for £3.99 per month for three months, a significant reduction from the standard £5.99 monthly fee. The offer is time-limited, requiring sign-up by May 6 to avail of the discounted price.
By signing up before the deadline, subscribers can secure the £3.99 monthly rate for the entire three-month period. This price makes Disney+ the most cost-effective major streaming service compared to Netflix (£5.99), Prime Video (£5.99), HBO Max (£4.99), and Apple TV (£9.99).
After the promotional period, the subscription will automatically renew at the standard £5.99 rate unless cancelled. Customers have the option to upgrade to the ad-free Disney+ Standard for £6.99 (from £9.99) or Disney+ Premium for £9.99 (from £14.99), offering enhanced features such as 4K UHD picture quality, HDR, Dolby Atmos support, and up to four simultaneous streams.
In addition, Sky is now bundling a free Disney+ subscription with its Ultimate TV package, which also includes Netflix and HBO Max.
The discounted £3.99 per month subscription for three months provides access to popular shows like Rivals, Only Murders in the Building, and The Bear, along with a vast library of content from Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and more.
This package, valued at around £240 per year, includes free streaming subscriptions and access to 135 channels like Sky Atlantic. Disney+ is gearing up for the second season of Rivals, a successful drama starring David Tennant.
New releases on Disney+ include The Testaments, a dystopian drama set after The Handmaid’s Tale, and the sequel to conspiracy-thriller Paradise. Fan-favorites like Scrubs and Malcolm in the Middle, alongside Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar titles, are also available for streaming.
Reality TV fans can enjoy Raising Chelsea, depicting Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo’s journey as new parents. Disney+ has become synonymous with top franchises and received positive reviews on Trustpilot for its extensive catalog and affordability.
While some customers appreciate Disney+, others have criticized the frequency of ads during shows. Nonetheless, the platform’s user-friendly interface, quality content, and transparent policies have garnered praise from many users.
