Millions of Netflix subscribers have cancelled their monthly subscriptions as the cost-of-living crisis starts to bite, the latest figures from Kantar show. So the timing of an unbeatable new deal from BT couldn’t be better. The broadband firm is bundling a Netflix subscription, NOW Entertainment membership with access to popular Sky TV channels like Sky Atlantic and Sky Max, exclusive channel AMC, and the BT TV Box Pro with the ability to pause and rewind live television. That makes this BT bundle one of the best Sky deals around too!
Usually priced at £17 per month, for a very limited time, you can get all of this for just £6 per month. And that price is frozen for the duration of your 24-month contract, so you’ll never pay £17 per month – saving you £264 over the course of the contract!
Given that NOW Entertainment Membership alone costs £9.99 per month, this deal effectively offers a £6.99 per month Netflix subscription for free. And that’s a pretty good reason to keep your subscription ahead of the release of the new season of The Crown, final season of Stranger Things and next instalment of Squid Game sometime next year, hugely-popular Dahmer and The Watcher series available to watch right now, and exclusive films like Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery and Mathilda over the Christmas season.
The incredible £6 per month Sky TV and Netflix deal is available to both new and existing BT customers. The deal expires on November 3, 2022.
Included in the brilliant BT TV bundle, you’ll get a Netflix subscription (worth £6.99), a NOW Entertainment Membership (worth £9.99), and the critically-acclaimed BT TV set-top box, which can pause and rewind live television, store up to 300-hours of recorded television, and stream boxsets and movies from Netflix, Prime Video, BBC iPlayer, Disney+ and more in up to 4K Ultra HD quality.
Even if you’re not interested in a BT TV box or access to Sky TV channels, it’s worth taking advantage of the deal.
Following a price rise from Netflix earlier in the year, the Basic package from Netflix now costs £6.99 a month – or 99p more than BT is charging for its Entertainment bundle, which includes that same Netflix plan. And of course, you’ll also unlock hundreds of on-demand boxsets from Sky TV, including exclusive shows like House of the Dragon, The White Lotus, Mare Of Easttown, Brassic, Succession as well as live channels like Sky Comedy, Sky History, Sky Atlantic, Sky Max, Sky Crime, Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Nickelodeon, Gold, Comedy Central, and MTV included too.
Sky Atlantic is only available on BT TV thanks to the bundled NOW Entertainment Membership, formerly NOW TV. The channel, which is home to some of the biggest dramas – like Gangs Of London, Succession, Little Big Lies, The Undoing, Game Of Thrones, and The Gilded Age – isn’t accessible on Virgin Media’s TV 360 set-top box, even when customers pay extra to bring Sky TV channels to their package. NOW is tightly integrated into BT TV, making it easy to access on-demand boxsets and live channels.
BT also has the rights to AMC, the US network behind hit shows like The Walking Dead, Better Call Saul, Preacher, and The Terror too.
What if you already pay for a Netflix subscription, should you still opt for this deal?
Yes, absolutely. If you already pay for your own Netflix subscription, thankfully, you will not need to ditch the account when you switch to the BT Entertainment bundle – losing your viewing history. BT offers existing subscribers the ability to transfer their accounts to their monthly BT bill without losing any data. At the end of the contract, you’ll be able to separate your Netflix account from your monthly BT bill again.
Netflix plans to launch a new ad-support streaming subscription in the UK next month. Priced at £4.99 per month, it costs just £1.01 less than this blockbuster BT TV deal. For that, you’ll get access to a smaller library of shows, documentaries, and movies from the Netflix catalogue, streaming quality restricted to just 720p (that’s less than full High Definition) and the ability to watch on just one supported phone, tablet, computer, or TV at a time.
Unlike other Netflix plans, you won’t be able to download shows or films to watch offline – like during your commute or a flight.
For our money, we’d recommend taking advantage of the latest deal from BT and securing a fully-fledged Netflix Basic subscription, which lets you access the complete catalogue from Netflix, watch without adverts, and download shows and films to watch offline.
