Normally priced at $8.99 per month, AMC+ might not have featured on our look at the best TV streaming services (opens in new tab) but it still offers some great content, especially for free if you’re a Verizon wireless (opens in new tab) customer. This includes well-known shows including The Walking Dead, Mad Men, Orphan Black, and Portlandia. To gain free access to AMC+ as a Verizon customer, you’ll need to either sign up to the Start Unlimited plan, the Play More Unlimited, Do More Unlimited, or Get More Unlimited plans. The 4G-based Start Unlimited plan provides customers with just 6 months of AMC+ for free while the others all give users the full 12 months. If you’re a new Verizon Fios customer that signs up to one of Verizon’s Mix & Match home internet plans, you’re also eligible for the deal. Verizon Fios featured in our look at the best internet providers (opens in new tab) for good reason so it’s worth considering. The AMC+ deal goes alongside Verizon’s other limited free subscriptions which include Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ so there’s no shortage of content here from one of the best cell phone providers (opens in new tab). A reliable choice for 5G connectivity along with providing some of the best phone selections (including many of the best smartphones (opens in new tab)), Verizon isn’t the cheapest of options out there but with a wealth of freebies, it’s certainly great value for money if you love to stream new content. The timing is great too if you happen to be a fan of The Walking Dead with the new season - season 11 - launching August 22 on AMC+. Other wireless companies such as T-Mobile and AT&T offer similar deals with AT&T providing free HBO Max and T-Mobile bundling in Netflix with unlimited data plan. The free AMC+ deal at Verizon runs until February 10 so you have a bit of time to decide what to do. To sweeten the deal, Verizon also offers security features such as a filter for blocking spoofed phone numbers (opens in new tab) too.
