Dealmaster: Get a year of Disney + for free if you’re a Verizon Wireless user, Ars Technica

        

Greetings, Arsians! The Dealmaster is back once again with a new round of deals and price drops. Today’s list is headlined by a quick PSA for those who subscribe to a Verizon unlimited data plan or plan to subscribe to a Fios home Internet plan: if you’re at all interested the newDisney streaming service, you can get a12 – month subscription at no extra cost. As a refresher, Disney’s Netflix competitor launched on Tuesday andnormally costs $ 7 a month or $ (a year.

Now, as is often the case with mobile carrier promos, there’s somefine print to sort through. To get the free year of service, you need to subscribe to one of the carrier’s Verizon Unlimited, Go Unlimited, Beyond Unlimited, Above Unlimited, Get More Unlimited, Do More Unlimited, Pay More Unlimited, or Start Unlimited plans. (If you’re marveling at the fact that Verizon has had this many unlimited plans, many of whicharen’t actually unlimited, you’re not alone.) Both new and existing subscribers are eligible; Verizon has options on its promo page for existing subscribers who wish to switch to an unlimited plan and those who wish to move over from another carrier.

The offer isalso availableto Verizon Fios home Internet users and thehandful of peoplewho can access its 5G Home plan, but only if you’re a new subscriber, not if you have currently pay for one of those services. For Fios users, you’ll need a standalone Internet plan of at least 50 / 50 Mbps service, a two-year “Triple Play “bundle, or a 2-year Internet TV” Double Play “bundle. Either way, all of this has you sign up for Disney through Verizon, not Disney.

Some items worth noting: it’s possible to redeem the offer through the Web or thecarrier’s mobile app, and Verizon says the offer is not available to prepaid or business plan customers of any sort. The email address you use to register for the promo with Verizon can’t already be in use by an active Disney account, either. If you’re eligible for the free 12 months but already bought a Disney subscription ahead of time, though, the carrier says its promo will not replace your existing purchase; instead, that purchase will simply be paused and you can use it once the 12 months from this promotional offer have been used. (That said, we’d still advise you to keep an eye on your account and registered email address to make sure everything’s managed correctly.)

If you’re both a Verizon Wirelessanda new Fios user, you can technically redeem the promo twice with separate email addresses and get two years of Disney , since Verizon treats the two services as different accounts. If you didn’t purchase an annual or multi-year Disney subscription before you redeem the offer, Verizon will automatically renew your Disney service at $ 7 a month once the promo period expires. And the carrier says the whole promo will be available until June 1, 2020.

Got all that? If you’re not interested in Verizon, or you’d rather just wait until Disney sorts throughthe myriad technical problemsit’s having at launch, we also have deals on Kindle Unlimited subscriptions, robot vacuums, USB-C chargers, gaming laptops , and more. Have a look at the full list below.
