The best streaming services are always trying to attract new subscribers, and they do that in two ways: by making headline-grabbing shows people will sign up to see, and by offering tempting deals to cut the cost of subscribing. And this month are are five particularly good deals on UK streaming services, including Prime Video, DAZN, Now, Sky and Disney+.
Of all the deals, I think the best one is Disney+: it’s slashed the cost of its Standard with Ads plan to just £1.99 for the next four months, and the deal is available to returning customers as well as new ones. So if you haven’t had the opportunity to binge-watch Andor or enjoy the hilarious Extraordinary yet, they’re an absolute bargain this month.
That’s not the only good streaming deal, though. We’ve got a good price on a good Sky bundle, savings on Now packages, a good discount on DAZN and a really tempting student deal on Prime Video too.
Why these streaming deals are worth diving into
These are all very different streaming services, but they all have one thing in common: you’re getting a lot of great stuff to watch without having to spend big piles of cash. And if the British weather is going to do what it usually does, there’ll be plenty of rainy days where some good old-fashioned escapism is just the ticket.
If you’re not sure which of these streaming services is the best fit for you, I’d say DAZN is the best for sports fans; Sky is particularly good for quality drama, including the ludicrous and hugely entertaining Gangs of London; and Now is a good option for Sky shows when you don’t want to sign up for a long contract.
In addition to its movies Disney+ is really good for Star Wars and related shows such as the unmissable Andor (and one of my favourites, The Bear, is coming back within weeks: that’s worth subscribing for even if the streamer didn’t stream a single other show); and Prime Video is great if you’re fans of ridiculously large, superpowered and/or scowling heroes, as it’s home to the wonderfully daft Reacher, the hilariously shocking The Boys and the brooding Bosch among many more hugely entertaining Prime Video shows.
