Late last year YouTube TV battled with Disney over a carriage rights deal that lasted two weeks and brought new products like ESPN Unlimited to its users. Just a few months later, the cord-cutting giant revealed improvements to its mobile platform with a new interface available on both Android and iOS.
Now the streaming platform is back with another deal.
YouTube TV Quietly Offering Deal – to Select Customers
According to CordCutters, YouTube TV has quietly reinstated a targeted $10 monthly discount for six months, bringing the standard base plan rate down from $82.99 to $72.99 per month for eligible existing subscribers.
YouTube TV previously offered a $20 credit to customers during its dispute with Disney late last year.
How to Access the $10 per Month Discount
CordCutters revealed how to access the discount, which requires action on the part of the subscriber and won’t automatically be applied by the streaming giant.
“Subscribers must access it through a web browser on a computer, as the mobile apps do not display the option. Navigation begins in the membership area of the YouTube TV dashboard, where selecting the manage function for the base plan reveals a submenu related to pausing or canceling the service,” Cordcutters said. “For qualifying accounts, a promotional banner appears in this cancellation flow section, allowing users to activate the reduced rate with a single click. Billing updates take effect on the subsequent cycle, accompanied by an email confirmation.”
YouTube TV has not disclosed who is eligible for the reduced rate, sparking discontent among users on various platforms like Reddit.
