T-Mobile offers free Hulu to some customers: Find out if you qualify

Certain T-Mobile customers can now access shows like “The Bear” and “Abbott Elementary” on Hulu as a complimentary streaming benefit. 

Go5G Next customers will have access to the ad-supported Hulu tier at no extra cost starting Jan. 24, according to a Wednesday statement from T-Mobile. The plan also includes Apple TV+ and a basic, one-screen Netflix account and starts at $100 per month for one line with the autopay discount.

The fine print warns that after 12 months, T-Mobile customers will need to take action to renew their free subscription. If they fail to act, the Hulu subscription will auto-renew at the regular monthly price. The ad-supported tier is currently $7.99 per month.
