Disney+ Users Face £1,000 Fine if They Fail to Follow One Rule
- Millions of Disney+ viewers in the UK face fines up to £1,000 if they watch live UEFA Women’s Champions League matches without a TV licence starting this year.
- UK households are legally required to have a TV licence to view or capture any live television broadcasts, no matter which channel or streaming service is being used.
- Disney+ has acquired the exclusive rights to stream the UEFA Women’s Champions League matches live until 2030, available to subscribers without additional fees, though viewers must adhere to TV licensing regulations.
- The standard TV licence fee costs £174.50, although free licences are available for people aged 75 or over receiving Pension Credit, and refunds can be applied for if the licence is unused.
- Consequently, viewers watching live content on Disney+ should ensure they hold a valid TV licence to avoid penalties, highlighting ongoing requirements for accessing live streamed broadcasts in the UK.
