From 8 December,Disney Pluswill be significantly more expensive in the US and the UK is expected to follow suit in early 2023.
TheDisney+ priceis going up from $7.99 a month to $10.99 a month, so if you’re a monthly subscriber your annual total will be up from $95.88 to $131.88. That’s a 36% price rise, which isn’t ideal when the cost of absolutely everything is rising so quickly.
The annual fee is rising too, from $79.99 a year to $109.99. But you can beat the price rise if you move quickly. Here’s how.
How to keep Disney+’s price down for a whole year
This trick only works if you’re not currently a subscriber: if you buy a year ofDisney+ just now, you can still get it for $79.90. That’s saving you money even on the current monthly fee, because you’re getting 12 months for the cost of 10.
The third option is to do nothing and wait for thead-supported version, which Disney promises won’t be too ad-happy.
If you’re in the UK you don’t need to do anything yet; Disney+ already raised its price in 2021 from £5.99 to £7.99 a month and hasn’t yet announced any plans for an ad-supported tier or standard service price rise in the UK just yet. But that’s likely to change, and while it’s clearly going to cost a little bit more Disney+ is still one of the verybest streaming servicesin terms of value for money, and it’ll still be cheaper than the equivalentNetflixsubscription.
