Why we chose it: If you know you're likely to stick with your subscription for at least a year, this is a great option for you.

Six months free Disney Plus for existing O2 customers

What's the deal: We've already mentioned one Disney Plus deal from O2, but this one helps out those of you who are existing O2 customers. Add Disney Plus to your plan and get it for £2 less.

Why we chose it: If you're an existing O2 customer, this is a great way to save on a Disney Plus subscription. While £2 might not seem like a huge saving, the subscription isn't too expensive in the first place, and it adds up to up to six months of Disney Plus for free.

Sign up to Disney Plus to claim the offer. Or, if you're already a Disney Plus user, simply add it as an 'Extra' on your plan. You'll be able to claim £2 off each month for six months.

Get up to six months of Disney Plus for free with Mobiles.co.uk

What's the deal: Mobiles.co.uk is offering six months of Disney Plus for free on selected Samsung Galaxy phone bundles, for example, on the Samsung Galaxy S22 and Samsung Galaxy 23 Ultra.

Why we chose it: Buying a phone outright is a big ask, and not something everyone can afford (or may even want) to do. If you'd prefer a monthly contract rather than buying outright, these Mobiles.co.uk deals are for you, and you won't miss out on the year's worth of Disney Plus content.

Six months free Disney Plus with an O2 SIM

What's the deal: If you're upgrading an O2 SIM or switching to O2 from another network, you can bag up to six months of Disney Plus for free as part of your new deal.

Depending on the plan you choose and how much it costs per month, you can select additional 'Extra' benefits from O2; and a Disney Plus subscription is one of those available at the moment.

If you commit to these 24-month plans, 30GB of data for £14.99 per month, 150GB of data for £11.50 or unlimited data for £16, you'll get six months of Disney Plus for free. If you opt for the 12GB of data for £12 per month deal (also a 24-month contract), you can bag three months' free Disney Plus.

Why we chose it: If you're on the lookout for a sim or you're an O2 customer renewing, this is an easy way to bag yourself some free Disney Plus. We recommend weighing up how much data you'll actually use to make sure you're still getting the best value.

Does Disney Plus have a free trial in the UK?

When Disney Plus first launched in the UK in March 2020, it came with a free trial. This was for new subscribers in the UK, and it came from Disney itself. Sadly, however, that free trial ended after a couple of months in mid-2020.

The RadioTimes.com team have put together this guide, though, to help you bag a Disney Plus subscription for free as part of a bundle or for less. And remember: the £7.99 per month, 30-day rolling contract allows you to cancel Disney Plus at any time.

Sign up to Disney Plus for £7.99 per month at Disney Plus

Disney Plus bundles

Unfortunately, when it comes to Disney Plus bundles, the UK market is poorly served.

US customers can pay $13.99 a month for an expanded subscription which also includes ESPN+ and Hulu ($13.99 with adverts or $19.99 without).

This isn't available in the UK right now, but we wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of similar bundle land soon. We'll update this page with the latest offerings when it does.

Is Disney Plus free with Amazon Prime Video UK?

This is a commonly asked question and unfortunately, the answer is no.

Previously, Amazon has offered US customers six months of Disney Plus if they signed up for Amazon Music Unlimited.

However, if you have an Amazon Prime Video subscription – or are considering one – and want to watch Disney content, there are some great Disney films on there. The likes of Black Widow, Luca, Turning Red, and Lilo & Stitch are all available to buy or rent via Amazon Prime Video.
