After removing the basic subscription plan in Canada, Netflix has removed the plan in the U.S. and the U.K. as well. The basic plan allowed users to consume Netflix on one screen in 720p quality. While users already subscribed to this plan will be able to continue, new subscribers won’t be purchase the basic plan.
The move, spotted by the UK-based website Code Busters, indicates that the company might axe the plan in all countries where it has rolled out an ad-supported standard plan. The plan was priced at $9.99 per month in the U.S. and £6.99 per month in the UK.
“The Basic plan is no longer available for new or rejoining members. If you are currently on the Basic plan, you can remain on this plan until you change plans or cancel your account,” the support page on Netflix reads now.
