Netflix offers for January 2025: UK deals and how to save on subscription costs
We all know Netflix has increased its prices in the last few years, but is there anything you can do about that?
Following the recent price hikes and crackdown on password sharing, Netflix's hold over the streaming universe has loosened somewhat.
It may be one of the oldest – having emerged in 1998 as a rival to Blockbuster, before transforming in 2007 into the online subscription we know today – but does that mean it deserves our unswerving loyalty?
If you're a lover of Bridgerton, Stranger Things, or The Witcher, then yes, perhaps it does. However, if it's been years since the streaming service has caught your attention with a new series or film, then you may be wondering: what's the point of paying full price for it?
But, the fact is you don't have to. From downgrading to a lower price tier, to combining the service into a package with something else, there are a more than few ways you can shave money off your Netflix bill.
Below, we've assembled a list of the best methods, and you can take a look at these alongside guides such as how much does Netflix cost and new on Netflix this month.
