Apple TV Plus Faces Fallout from Price Hike

In a bold move to counter recent backlash, Apple TV Plus hiked its monthly subscription fee by a staggering 30%, jumping from $10 to $13. This price increase didn't sit well with viewers, leading to a noticeable surge in cancellations.

A Game-Changer: 54% Discount for Canceling Customers

To stem the tide of departing subscribers, Apple has rolled out an eye-catching offer: a temporary 54% discount. For those on the verge of leaving, the service is now available for just $6 a month for the first two months. Enthusiastic users on the tvPlus subreddit have confirmed this deal, with one sharing a screenshot that highlights this enticing offer from Apple.

Who Can Benefit from This Offer?

However, it's important to note that this generous offer is exclusively targeted at existing customers trying to cancel their subscriptions. New subscribers looking to join the Apple TV Plus community won't be able to take advantage of this discount.

Additional Ways to Save on Apple TV Plus

For those still seeking wallet-friendly options, Apple TV Plus isn’t the only player in town. Comcast users can snag the StreamSaver bundle, which combines Apple’s service with Netflix and Peacock for a cool $15 a month. Similarly, T-Mobile customers can enjoy a full year of Apple TV Plus for free through their Magenta plans, making it easier than ever to enjoy premium content.

A Strategic Move or a Desperate Act?

As the streaming wars heat up, it remains to be seen if these aggressive strategies will retain customers or merely serve as a temporary band-aid on a growing issue. One thing's for sure: Apple is doing its best to keep its viewers tuned in.
