Netflix raises the prices of its rates in the uk

These past months we have seen how Netflix has started to raise the prices of its rates for new users in various countries in Europe. It is a measure that the platform needs to pay for the many productions, both series and movies, that are currently underway. Now it is the UK's turn to undergo such a price rise.

The rise in this case is up to 20%, something that will surely make many consumers in the country rethink having an account on the well-known streaming platform.

Price increase

This time, Netflix's basic plan will keep its cost of £ 5.99. While the standard plan will go from 7.99 to 8.99 pounds a month in this case. The most expensive package on the streaming platform will raise its price by £ 2, from £ 9.99 to £ 11.99. A rise that is remarkable in this case, and with which many users are not going to be entirely happy, as we can imagine.

This upload applies to new users, although starting next month those who already have an account will also have to pay the money that the subscription costs now. A decision with which many users are not entirely happy.

It remains to be seen if this causes Netflix to lose users in the United Kingdom. The platform has been raising prices in various countries for months. A risky decision now that many new competitors arrive on the market, such as Disney + or Apple TV +. We will see if this makes them lose users.
