These Cyber Monday streaming deals are still live, from Disney+ to Apple TV
These extended Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals can save you up to 50 per cent on your favourite streaming subscriptions
Black Friday and Cyber Monday might be over, but there’s still a chance to grab a bargain. While many are snapping up huge discounts on headline tech like Nintendo Switch 2, smartphones, and Apple Watches, others are taking the opportunity to save on streaming subscriptions, making it the perfect time to cosy up to a new TV series or film for less.
This year, several leading platforms launched Black Friday and Cyber Monday streaming deals, with some cutting membership prices by as much as 50 per cent. Many of these offers are still live, but you’ll need to act fast. With most of these platforms known for unexpected monthly price rises, it’s a smart time to secure a cheaper annual subscription and avoid future rate hikes.
So, whether you want to binge-watch the brand-new season of Stranger Things on Netflix or revisit classics like The Wire on Now, now is the time to subscribe, save and enjoy some quality telly.
Apple TV: One week free trial, Apple.com
Apple TV has fast gained a reputation for rarely producing duds on the small screen. Each show it has churned out has become instant gold. Its latest series, straight from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul visionary Vince Gilligan, is called Pluribus, a sci-fi mystery about an alien virus that makes everyone on Earth unnaturally happy, save for cynical hero Carol, played by Rhea Seehorn. There are also feel-good comedies in the form of Ted Lasso and the acclaimed Brit spy comedy Slow Horses, starring Gary Oldman.
In its Black Friday sale, Apple was offering a six-month subscription for just £4.99, down from £9.99 per month. Whilst this offer has now expired, you can still take advantage of a week’s free trial to test the service before committing.
Now: TV shows and movies package: Was £19.98, now £8.99 per month for 12 months, Nowtv.com
Not to be outdone by its rivals, Now is offering heavy discounts across its packages. The TV shows and movies package bundles all new Sky Atlantic shows, such as the mystery thriller All Her Fault, starring a post-Succession Sarak Snook, and the scary prequel IT: Welcome to Derry, a follow-up to a movie that made an entirely new generation terrified of clowns.
Right now, you can save up to 55 per cent on the package, a huge discount on its library of live channels, on-demand box sets and the latest blockbusters.
Disney+ standard: Was £119.98, now £99.99, Disneyplus.com
While Disney+, home to iconic shows such as Grey’s Anatomy and The Bear, isn’t running a Black Friday sale this year, you can save on a subscription by choosing an annual plan. Paying yearly effectively gets you 12 months for the price of 10. The standard plan has been slashed from £119.88 per year to £99.90 per year, while the premium deal takes the subscription down from £179.88 to £149.90.
Sky Stream, Essential TV, Netflix and full fibre 500: £35, Sky.com
A deal that brings you all that’s available on Sky’s essential TV – think All Her Fault and The White Lotus – as well as shows on Netflix, from new release The Beast In Me, to cult series Stranger Things. The cherry on top? You’re getting 500 fibre broadband for the price of 75Mbps full fibre broadband, which is six times faster. It’s a 24-month contract open to new customers only, and the offer ends on 5 December.
Prime Video: Up to 50 per cent off selected movies, Amazon.co.uk
Prime Video has slashed the price of hundreds of movies in its Black Friday sale, from double Bafta award winner Anora to Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy. While you’ll need to be a Prime Video member to reap the rewards, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial.
