TV/Film:
Netflix
Prime
Disney
AppleTV+
Britbox
BBC TV licence

Music:
Deezer

News/Magazines:
Apple News

Need to rationalise on the TV stuff, but keep switching back on for a single thing and then forgetting to cancel again. I don't even know how I did Britbox, but it's within Prime for some reason, and I was drunk when I did it. Quite good though!

Netflix
Amazon Prime
Disney Plus
Apple TV (but that's on a 6 month trial I got when I bought my telly, can't imagine I would pay for it)
Spotify
Readly for magazines, still buy paper bike mags though and Readly is one of those subs where you get a couple months free then you cancel then they start begging you back with more offers

Nordvpn which means you can use certain other sites
I also have prime, which I have used a couple of times, but it is mainly so SWMBO gets ND delivery.

I had Prime, but except Clarksons farm, literally everything I wanted watch

I don't subscribe to anything other than the compulsory BBC tax. But I can recommend youtube via the Vivaldi web browser which seems to effortlessly supress nearly all of the advertisements.

None.

But I am a heavy user of get_iplayer to download BBC content.
There is no cloud, just somebody else's computer.

Spotify Family
Apple Music One ( includes family, don’t ask)
Amazon Prime
Netflix
Paramount
Apple TV ( worth it for Ted Lasso and Slow Horses alone)
Crunchy roll (manga thing for one of my kids)


I sacked off NOW TV after GOT ending.

Might have a few more - I’m not 100% about it anymore.

This is why i started the thread tbh, i wanted to see who would own up to not actually knowing what they might or might not have...;)

It's such a minefield now, they are goading you into buying so many in app subscriptions it's easy to lose track of what you do and do not subscribe to!

If only those filthy bankers would provide you a way of finding what transactions happen in your account.

I keep hearing on the radio about various banking apps which will tell you how many subscriptions you're paying etc. Obviously it's quite a common thing to not know.

I know though ;) I could tell you every DD which comes from account and how much it is.

Surely every bank has this - they're called 'statements' aren't they?

Fair enough. They're often called 'Transactions' now... either way, they all show you what you've bought.
