  • T-Mobile is adding Hulu (with ads) to more plans than just Go5G Next.
  • The catch is that your account must have originally offered Netflix Standard to qualify.
  • While the perk is nice, there is no way to upgrade to the Disney Plus bundle or the add-free tier.

Hulu was initially introduced as a one-time perk for T-Mobile’s Go5G Next legacy plans, replacing as compensation for switching Netflix Standard to the ad-based tier. Customers were given a code that could be redeemed for a free year. Earlier this month, we learned that T-Mobile’s Hulu perk was set to undergo a few changes, some of which weren’t necessarily positive. At the time, it appeared this perk would still be limited to Go5G Next plans, but that no longer seems to be the case.

According to Reddit user Covette_77, T-Mobile will begin offering Hulu (with ads) for free on additional plans starting January 7th. While this sounds like good news, there is a catch. The perk will only be automatically added to plans for customers who had Netflix Standard prior to January 2024, with billing conveniently managed through the T-Mobile app. However, customers who signed up this year and have a plan that includes Netflix (with ads) will not be eligible.
