FULL STORY
======================================================================Disney+ 
has confirmed its recent price hike extends to UK customers The change is 
already in effect, having been introduced on September 30 The price hike will 
affect all Disney+ tiers 

Days after we reported the latest Disney+ price hike for US customers , we 
can now confirm the change will affect those in the UK too. 

One of the best streaming services has announced price increases across every 
single subscription, including ad-free plans. This came into effect on 
September 30. 

The Disney+ 'Standard with Ads' tier has jumped from 4.99 per month to 5.99 
per month. Meanwhile, the 'Standard' (with ads) plan has jumped from 8.99 per 
month to 9.99 per month, or 89.90 per year to 99.90 per year  to see the full 
list of price changes, including for the Disney+ 'Premium' plan, see further 
below. 

It's been a turbulent time for Disney's streaming service as recently, 
Disney+, Hulu and ESPN suffered a major blow after millions of fans 
reportedly closed their accounts over the Jimmy Kimmel row. What are the new 
Disney+ tier prices? 

I've outlined the old and new costs of Disney+ in the UK below, where 
subscribers are seeing an 11% to 20% increase depending on which tier they're 
on. 

At a glance, it's frustrating to see that even Disney+'s cheapest tier has 
become more expensive. Given the news, I wouldn't be surprised if customers 
choose to cancel their subscriptions entirely. 

 Plan 

 Old Price 

 New Price 

 Disney+ Standard with Ads 

4.99 per month 

5.99 per month 

 Disney+ Standard (monthly) 

8.99 per month 

9.99 per month 

 Disney+ Standard (annual) 

89.90 per year 

99.90 per year 

 Disney+ Premium (monthly) 

12.99 per month 

14.99 per month 

 Disney+ Premium (annual) 

129.90 per year 

149.90 per year 

Despite the increases, Disney+'s 'Premium' tier is still cheaper than 
Netflix's equivalent (without ads) tier, which is 18.99 per month, so fans of 
the best Disney+ shows and best Disney+ movies are still paying less than 
rivals. 

Price hikes are always disappointing news, but there are a few ways you can 
save cash on a Disney+ subscription even if the new pricing plans are 
inevitable. 

One of the best ways to pay less for a subscription is to look at whether 
there are any offers that allow you to get a Disney+ free trial . While 
Disney no longer offers this introductory deal, you can still find it as part 
of a perk to a mobile, broadband or retail membership in certain areas, so 
it's worth exploring. You might also like The best Disney+ shows of 2025 so
