SAVE $95.88: Starting Jan. 24, T-Mobile customers on the Go5G Next plan will get Hulu (with ads) for no extra cost — that's a $7.99/month value (or $95.88 per year) for free. Hulu will join Netflix, Apple TV+, and MLB.tv in T-Mobile's stacked streaming suite.


T-Mobile phone plans are the gifts that keep on giving — particularly the Go5G Next phone plan. If you have even the smallest gripe with your current mobile provider, T-Mobile is making a really convincing argument for switching. Currently, T-Mobile customers on the Go5G Next plan get Netflix, Apple TV, and MLB.tv for no extra cost. And this month, Hulu is joining the mix as well.

As of Jan. 24, T-Mobile Go5G Next customers will unlock Hulu's entire library without paying a cent. Usually $7.99 per month for the The Hulu with ads plan usually costs $7.99 per month, so Go5G Next customers will save $95.88 per year just for being a T-Mobile customer. Hulu joins the already stacked T-Mobile streaming suite alongside Apple TV+, Netflix, and MLB.tv, adding up to about $400 in savings per year. Ironically, the same day, Netflix access will be demoted to the standard with ads version for customers as well (bummer, but at least it's still free).

T-Mobile isn't the first provider to offer streaming services as a hook for customers. Similarly, Verizon debuted its streaming bundle last month, which includes Netflix and Max for $10 per month. Unlike Verizon, however, T-Mobile is offering these streamers for no extra cost.

"T-Mobile customers get the best value and the best entertainment streaming bundle in wireless — just for being customers, without having to pay a penny more,” wrote Mike Katz, T-Mobile's president of marketing and strategy.

Hulu is brimming with excellent content, including some of our favorite original series like Only Murders in the Building and The Bear, as well as gems like The Creator, Palm Springs, Rye Lane, and Infinity Pool. Not to mention, you can get your reality TV fix with its extensive library of shows like The Masked Singer, The Bachelor, Love Island (UK), and The Kardashians. While having to watch a few ads every hour isn't ideal, it's easier to overlook the intrusion when you're paying zero dollars for the streaming service.
