Oh you aren’t getting it for free. You just pay for it to T-mobile, instead of directly to Netflix. Never yet heard of a company, that offers actual freebies. You just pay for it in the price of the other thing you are paying them for.
Buy glasses, get second pair for free… … … you pay price of two for one pair and aren’t just very well aware how cheap eye glasses are to make these days.
Yep yep, I understand this. I just can’t negotiate with T-Mobile pricing do I already knew I’m technically paying for Netflix. But I’m not gonna be able to reduce my T-Mobile bill monthly if I refuse the Netflix so I’m just pretending it’s free as long as I’m not paying “extra”.
T-Mobile offer cheaper plans without Netflix. Plans that still have all the unlimited data/calling of the Netflix plan. We pay $100 fir two line with them. If I wanted to go to the cheapest plan with Netflix, it would cost me $120 a month…i.e. it’s cheaper for me to stay on my no Netflix plan and pay for Netflix separately.
Huh, I need to look into this since I only need 2 lines as well.

I would argue that it’s more just a, for once, positive side affect of the bloated prices we experience in everything. When you get a buy one get one free deal with glasses, you can shop around and see that they aren’t charging double for the single pair. It’s on par with what you pay for a single pair elsewhere. It just means that creating a pair of glasses isn’t as expensive as they want you to think.
T-mobile isn’t paying full price per Netflix subscription they give along with a cell phone bill. They may even be making money. Netflix subscriptions overall are down. Netflix has been desperate to get more people signed up. It wouldn’t surprise me if this is considered a promotion for Netflix. They pay Netflix to lump it in with cell phone plans to get people who previously didn’t have their own Netflix account to now be signed up. Once that free year or whatever ends, a percentage of those people will certainly pay for it. That biggest hurdle of signing them up for their own account is done.
