Netflix
With eligible mobile phone plans, you can get Netflix with ads for free. If you’ve been wanting to catch up on Stranger Things or re-watch hits like Squid Game and Wednesday, this one is for you. To snag this freebie, you’ll need to have two or more lines with the following plans: Go5G, Go5G Next, Go5G Plus, Magenta, Magenta Max, or any Experience More or Experience Beyond plan. Included in this deal are Military, 55 and First Responder plans, as well.
If you’re an existing Netflix subscriber, you’ll be able to take part in this perk with one of the T-Mobile plans mentioned above. Head to the Add-ons section of your account page to sign up for your Netflix offer.
You can also choose to upgrade and stream ad-free Netflix Premium for $18 per month (down $7 from the regular price) through your T-Mobile bill.
Hulu
If you subscribe to any Experience Beyond or Go5G Next mobile plan, T-Mobile will toss in ad-based Hulu for free. One Hulu offer is available per T-Mobile account, and this deal only applies to new and returning T-Mobile customers. To redeem, simply follow the instructions listed here, and you’ll be all set.
Please note that there’s no discount if you wish to switch to a different Hulu plan. And if you’re already paying for Hulu but want to use this T-Mobile freebie instead, you’ll need to cancel your current subscription first.
Paramount Plus
Those of you with an All-In home internet plan can access the Paramount Plus ad-supported Essential Plan at no extra cost. You can watch a range of TV shows (including Taylor Sheridan’s hit, Landman) and movies from networks like CBS, Nickelodeon and Comedy Central, plus live sports and a small set of live channels. You can activate the streaming subscription directly through your T-Mobile bill.
SiriusXM
Do you have a T-Mobile wireless plan like Experience Beyond, Experience More or the Go5G plans? Well, you can get the SiriusXM All Access plan (which is for app use only) free for six months. To snatch up this deal, simply add it to your account. After the six-month promo is up, customers will be billed the full price for the service, currently $10 per month.
New and returning SiriusXM subscribers who’d like to use this perk can, as long as you haven’t had an active subscription to the satellite radio service in the past 12 months.
Pandora
Speaking of streaming music, four months of Pandora Premium is included for free if you’re a T-Mobile postpaid mobile customer. You can add the Pandora Premium On Us perk to your account through the T-Mobile website or app to take advantage of the deal. After the four months are up, your bill will show Pandora Premium’s regular price, which is currently $11 a month.
Apple TV won’t be free anymore
Since 2021, T-Mobile has offered its subscribers complimentary access to Apple TV. But starting Jan. 1, 2026, a fair share of the company’s customers with premium mobile and voice plans will see the free perk replaced by a $3-a-month cost for the streamer. T-Mobile newbies can also sign up for the deal.
This change reflects Apple TV’s recent price bump from $10 to $13 per month. Anyone with the 55+ and Senior plans, as well as phone plans for military members, first responders, and individuals with hearing or visual impairments, will receive this $3 deal for a six-month period. While not free, this new price is still a noteworthy discount for the streamer.
