Whether you're a new or existing EE TV customer, you can enjoy Netflix as part of one of our TV packages.
If you sign up to an Entertainment, Big Entertainment or Full Works package, then your package will automatically include Netflix. If you sign up to a package that doesn't have Netflix included and have a TV box you can add Netflix to your BT bill as an Extra, with a monthly-rolling subscription.
Subscribing to Netflix through EE TV will allow you to watch Netflix via the Netflix App on your TV box, as well as on many of your favourite internet enabled devices such as smartphones, tablets and computers.
If you already have Netflix, there's no need to cancel. If you have Netflix with a third party, then you'll need to cancel this directly with them.
If you sign up for Entertainment, Big Entertainment or a Full Works package, then Netflix is automatically included in your monthly TV and broadband bill.
If you've purchased Netflix as an Extra, then this is a monthly-rolling subscription. Extras can be added and removed from your package month-to-month. Subscription charges will appear under the 'TV and entertainment' section on your BT bill.
You may notice that the dates are slightly different to other products on your bill, as this depends on when you activate your Extra.
