I'm all prepared to binge watch it after the Mandalorian. I've still gotta finish off Witcher 3, got stuck quite early on.
That's naughty of netflix and surprises me a little.Shocklingly I did manage to finish the game and the DLCs and I think every quest in the game too. Too soon for another runthrough but am stoked about the TV show.
So like everyone else, we just went to get our Netflix free trial this evening.
Only to find Netflix axed the tree trial. Exclusively for UK customers from early Dec. Probably because Witcher + Golden Compass in December?
Perhaps the more customer-friendly, and indeed sensible move might have been to keep the free trial and get people hooked on the shows so they sign up for future installments. NowTV got us like that for Game of Thrones and we bought a sub each year. But no, a £ in the hand in the Netflix way, so fine.
We look at the membership plans. Basic for £5.99. Standard one (with HD) for £8.99. Premium (4k) for £11.99. My partner's doing the signup and selects Standard because HD. We get told a nice free offer where the first month is upgraded to Premium with the price difference being free.
I open a browser, and notice that Basic is also upgraded to Premium for free. So Netflix are happy to give you a Premium membership for £5.99 for a month, but will take £8.99 for it (or presumably £11.99) off your hands for it if you offer it first.
If you click Back on your browser, you're locked into the plan you picked so can't go back to change to the basic one.
Thankfully netflix seemed to do this via cookies so a quick browser history clear sorted that.
So, great savings for us here:
Saving 1) select Basic membership for your Netflix and you get HD/4k content for no extra cost for the first month
Saving 2) won't be buying Netflix again if that's their attitude to UK customers, so £9 x however many series of Witcher / Dark Materials / Dark Crystal saved as well.
No shortage of other things to see on Prime. Have recently started Heroes. Which I was pleased is now on Amazon Prime because whenever I try to buy it on bluray, the stores have always failed to post it and I end up getting refunds :S
