Verizon adds Peacock to streaming hub, offers discounted YouTube premium plan to customers
May 28, 2024 12:48 PM

May 28 (Reuters) - Verizon said on Tuesday that

it added Comcast's ( CMCSA ) Peacock to its streaming

subscription hub and plans to offer YouTube Premium at a

discounted rate with myPlan subscriptions.

The telecom firm said it will offer YouTube Premium for $10

per month, offering savings of 30% to myPlan customers, starting

Thursday.

Peacock streaming service, under NBCUniversal, will be made

available from June 5 through Verizon's +play, an entertainment

hub that offers consolidated streaming and lifestyle

subscriptions to customers.

Comcast ( CMCSA ) recently announced price hikes for Peacock ahead of

the Olympic Games in Paris this summer.

Peacock premium - an ad-supported offering - will cost $7.99

per month, while its ad-free offering - premium plus - will be

priced at $13.99 a month, the company said last month.

The New York-based company has benefited from its

customizable myPlan options and streaming bundles offering

discounted pricing for services such as Netflix ( NFLX ) and

Warner Bros Discovery's ( WBD ) Max, which has attracted

customers.

The company introduced promotional bundle for six months of

free access to Disney's ( DIS ) services for new and existing

customers on some plans.

Verizon on Tuesday also announced the Ultimate Phone Upgrade

program, which gives customers on the Unlimited Ultimate

wireless plan their best phone and device promos when they trade

in an older one.
