EE TV Slashes Prices: Netflix, Sky NOW & Freeview For £1

This post may contain affiliate links*

BT and EE TV have rolled out one of their most aggressive promotional offers yet – and this time, they’re offering their Entertainment bundle, complete with Netflix, NOW, Discovery+, and a premium Freeview TV box, for just £1 a month for the first six months.

So if you’ve been considering EE TV’s Entertainment package or fancied trying out their premium Full Works plan, both are available at substantial reductions until September 25, 2025.

But as we’ve learned from previous EE TV promotions, there’s always more to unpack beyond that eye-catching price.

EE TV: The Quick Backstory

For those who haven’t been keeping up, EE TV is essentially what used to be BT TV before a rebranding exercise in 2023 (both EE and BT are owned by the same parent company).

Since then, whether you’re a BT Broadband customer or an EE broadband customer, the pay-TV services you can subscribe to come from EE.

The platform offers subscribers a choice between two main devices – the EE TV Pro Box (a 4K/HDR YouView-based box with Freeview recording and streaming capabilities) or the EE-branded Apple TV 4K box.

Both let you watch some Freeview channels without an aerial, though the YouView box also lets you record programmes, and you can connect an aerial to it for a larger selection of channels.

What makes EE TV somewhat unique is its “flexible” bundle model – you can switch between different TV packages every 30 days during your contract.

Want entertainment for a few months, then sports during football season? No problem. The catch? You’ll need to be a BT or EE broadband customer with a 24-month contract.

The September Promotional Deals

So, what exactly are they offering this time around? Let’s break down the discounted bundles (which – remember – come attached to BT’s broadband deals):

The Entertainment Bundle – £1/month for 6 months

This is where things get genuinely tempting. For just £1 per month for the first six months, you get:

  • NOW Entertainment (with Sky Atlantic, Sky Max and other Sky channels)
  • Netflix Standard with Ads (Full HD but with those pesky adverts)
  • Discovery+ Entertainment (without sports content)
  • The EE TV 4K Pro Box or Apple TV 4K EE Box

You’ll pay just £1/month for the first 6 months (down from the usual £20/month), then revert to normal pricing. As with most broadband and TV companies, prices increase automatically every year.

So, after the promotional period, you’ll be paying:

  • £20/month until March 31, 2026
  • £22/month from March 31, 2026
  • £24/month from March 31, 2027

That’s a massive £114 saving over those first six months – and you’re getting premium hardware thrown in for free.

The Full Works Plan – £30/month for 3 months

This is the kitchen sink option (which used to be called The VIP Plan), including:

  • NOW Entertainment Membership
  • NOW Cinema Membership
  • NOW Boost (for Full HD and ad-free on-demand content)
  • Netflix Standard Plan (Full HD, no adverts)
  • All 4 TNT Sports channels (with integrated Eurosport content)
  • NOW Sky Sports (all 11 channels including Sky Sports+)
  • Discovery+ Entertainment & Sports
  • The EE TV 4K Pro Box or Apple TV 4K EE Box

You’ll pay just £30/month for 3 months (down from a hefty £80/month), then:

  • £80/month until March 31, 2026
  • £82/month from March 31, 2026
  • £84/month from March 31, 2027

Although this discount is only for 3 months, you’re still getting a considerable £150 discount during the initial promotional period.

It’s worth noting that the other TV bundles – Sport (£23/month), Big Entertainment (£30/month) and Big Sport (£48/month) – aren’t included in this promotion and remain at their regular prices.

However, all TV bundles currently come with no upfront installation payments.

BT Broadband Offers

Of course, since you can’t get EE TV without broadband from EE or BT, they’re also running broadband offers until September 25.

All their current deals include free setup and P&P, plus various virtual reward cards depending on the package:

There are other speed options available too – but as always, the available speed depends on the area you live in.

So, Are These Deals Any Good?

I’m generally sceptical of long TV contracts – they go against the flexibility that cord-cutting is supposed to offer.

That said, when you’re getting Netflix, NOW Entertainment, Discovery+, and premium hardware for £1 a month, it’s hard to argue with the value – IF you’re pretty sure you’re going to want these services for a long period.

Let’s do some quick maths to see just how good this deal really is:

Entertainment Bundle Value Check

If you were to subscribe to these services separately:

  • NOW Entertainment membership: £9.99/month (though often available for less)
  • Netflix Standard with Ads: £5.99/month
  • Discovery+ Entertainment: £3.99/month

That’s roughly £20/month if purchased individually – and that’s without a TV box that lets you watch and record Freeview channels (or the Apple TV box).

So at £1/month for six months, you’re getting everything for 5% of the normal price during that promotional period. Even a single month of Netflix Standard with Ads costs more than what you’ll pay for the entire EE bundle initially.

But let’s look at the bigger picture across the full 24-month contract.

The total cost will be roughly £414, which works out to roughly £17/month average (depending on when your contract starts) – decent value compared to buying the services separately at £20/month. Plus, you’re getting the EE TV box included.

Also, remember that you can switch TV bundles if you want to drop down to a cheaper option during your contract (but you can’t cancel your broadband plan).

The real value here is in that six-month promotional period and the included hardware – and over the long term, you are saving a reasonable amount compared to subscribing directly to these services – but you lose some flexibility.

Full Works Plan Reality Check

The Full Works plan at £30/month for 3 months is where things get more interesting – that’s less than half its regular £80/month price.

If you were to cobble together all these services separately:

  • NOW Entertainment, Cinema and Boost: around £26/month
  • Netflix Standard (no ads): £12.99/month
  • Discovery+ Entertainment & Sports: £33.99/month
  • NOW Sky Sports: approximately £28/month (depending on the deal you get)

You’re looking at over £98/month without even counting the TV box. So at £30/month, you’re getting excellent value for those first 3 months.

The problem? It’s only for 3 months. After that, you’re locked into paying £80/month for the remaining months of your contract (and then the £2/month jump every March).

Over the 24-month period, you’ll save £150 compared to the regular price – which sounds decent until you realise you’re still spending over £1,900 on TV over two years.

The Inevitable Fine Print

A few things to bear in mind before signing up:

  • You’re committing to a 24-month contract for both TV and broadband
  • While you can switch between TV bundles (every 30 days), you can’t cancel the TV service completely without breaking your contract
  • Prices will increase by £2/month every March (as mentioned above)
  • The biggest savings come during those initial promotional periods
  • This offer expires on September 25, 2025

These EE TV offers make the most sense if:

  • You were already planning to switch to BT broadband
  • You want multiple streaming services and don’t mind being locked in
  • You need a way to watch (and with the Pro box, record) Freeview without an aerial
  • You’re comfortable with longer contracts in exchange for initial savings

In that case, the Entertainment bundle, with its £1 promotional pricing for 6 months, is good value – especially when you consider you’re getting Netflix, NOW, Discovery+, and Freeview hardware for less than a coffee each month.

The Full Works plan is trickier to recommend unless you’re already committed to subscribing to all those sports services. Yes, you’ll save money initially, but that £80+/month commitment for most of your contract is a significant ongoing expense.

As always with these deals, it pays to do the maths based on what you actually need. But when Netflix alone costs six times more than the entire bundle, it’s hard not to be impressed by the value on offer.

  1. “ and you’re getting premium hardware thrown in for free”

    No upfront charge for the equipment yes, but it should be born in mind it is ‘on loan’ and has to be returned if you cancel the contract or you will be charged for it (as it is with other companies)
