NETFLIX has hiked the price of its premium subscription package in the UK, following rumours of a rise earlier this month. <\/p>\n

In a financial update today, the streaming giant also revealed its controversial crackdown on password sharing has won it 8.8million new subscribers. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Almost nine million households signed on to Netflix between July and September of this year, marking the biggest jump in subscription since the early Covid-19 lockdowns in 2020. <\/p>\n

Netflix's premium ad-free plan now costs \u00a317.99 ($22.99) per month in the UK, an increase of \u00a32. <\/p>\n

Basic plans have also climbed to \u00a37.99 ($11.99). <\/p>\n

Ad-supported and standard subscription costs remain unchanged.<\/p>\n

Netflix\u00a0axed its basic \u00a36.99 plan for new and rejoining\u00a0UK\u00a0(as well as US and Italy) subscribers in June, when it last hiked prices. <\/p>\n

At the beginning of October, the Wall Street Journal reported that the streamer was planning on raising the cost of subscriptions again, a "few months" after the Hollywood actors strike ends. <\/p>\n

The price hike has happened despite actors continuing their strike over pay and the right to not have their appearance recreated by AI for studios to own forever.<\/p>\n

During the summer price hike, many customers simply dropped down a subscription tier.<\/p>\n

But a number of subscribers hit their limit earlier this month when rumours of another price hike swirled, with many calling the company "greedy".<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Netflix earned $8.5billion in revenue between July and September, and forecasts another $8.7billion in revenue for the final quarter of the year. <\/p>\n

The company noted that some of its recent success was owed in large part to the record-breaking popularity of anime live-action remake One Piece. <\/p>\n
