Netflix Has Quietly Increased the UK Price by a Third for Cheapest Subscription
The cheapest Standard with Ads plan rose 33.4%, and Netflix said the changes reflect service improvements and higher entertainment costs.
- On Thursday, September 3, Netflix increased subscription prices across all UK tiers, with the cheapest Standard with Ads plan rising from £5.99 to £7.99 per month, a 33.4% increase.
- Netflix claims the price rises "reflect improvements to our wide range of entertainment and the quality of our service," marking the second time the streamer has increased UK prices this year.
- The Standard tier rose 7.7% to £13.99, while the Premium plan increased 10.5% to £20.99; the fee for adding an extra member to a subscription plan rose to £5.99.
- Consumers face these changes amid talk of a "cost of living crisis," while free services including ITVX, Channel 4, and Tubi offer alternative entertainment options.
- Max Beckett, broadband and TV expert for Uswitch, said "the good news is that if you pay Netflix directly, you're not locked in," noting users can cancel penalty-free anytime.
