Is it possible to try the service before subscribing? And what are any active offers? Let’s find out in this article
Those who follow Netflix since its beginnings will remember that at the beginning the service offered new users to carry out a free trial lasting one month, useful for discovering the streaming platform and deciding whether to continue subscription or cancel it for free before automatic renewal. Over the years, part of the users have abused this possibility, creating various accounts with which to take advantage of the 30 days free from time to time or using other tricks (such as changing associated credit and IP address, creating always different virtual cards, downloads of IPTV lists etc.). To avoid these behaviors, Netflix has removed the trial period for new users, replacing it for a period with the possibility of seeing some titles available on its catalog before subscribing.
Now that possibility has also been removed. Users wishing to try the service can do nothing but subscribe by choosing one of the three plans available.
Is there a way to get a free trial of Netflix in 2022? Let’s try to understand if there are alternatives and possibly what they are and how they work.
Netflix free trial: how to get it in 2022?
Netflix no longer offers the free trial to new customers, but you can change your plan, opting for the cheaper one (Basic, at 6.99 euros plus ads) or decide to cancel online the service at any time. There are no contracts, cancellation penalties or commitments.
For to have Netflix free in 2022 you can use some alternative methods:
- be given Netflix gift card, which can be purchased both online and in physical stores;
- use a VPN;
- "scrounge" the subscription to friends, family or roommates and log in with their credentials.
Alternatively, you can share the subscription with 3 other people and divide the cost: in this case it is better to choose the Premium plan, which at a cost of 17.99 euros per month (4.50 € per person) allows simultaneous viewing on 4 screens in Ultra HD quality.
However, it should be borne in mind that in recent months Netflix has started to move to hinder account sharing between people who live in different homes. For the moment, the platform has limited itself to sending users this message: "If you do not live with the owner of this account, you need an account to continue watching Netflix. Is this your account? verify" (this message might differ from country to country). In addition, in Argentina, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, the multinational has imposed the payment of $ 2.99 more on those who want to continue sharing the account with other people.
Another option is to activate offers with operator with Netflix included in the package. You will have to check every internet operator in your country and see if they include a Netflix subscription. Many even include other streaming services like Sky, NOW TV or Disney +.
