If you have Verizon, you might be in luck.
A partnership between Verizon and Disney means that you could be eligible for a bundle that includes Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN Plus. However, this is not exactly the best deal for some customers, considering what Verizon package you have to purchase to be eligible for the bundle.

According to The Verge, last week "the carrier announced that alongside the free 12 months of Disney Plus streaming it was already including with unlimited plans, it’ll now throw in Hulu and ESPN Plus, too."
However, the article continues, "[T]he full bundle only goes to customers on either the Play More or Get More unlimited plans, which are Verizon’s most expensive options."
So if you are not already signed up for the Play More or Get More plans, this bundle might require you shelling out some more cash.
However, there is a definite upside to making the switch. The article explains, "Unlike before, where the free promo was only good for 12 months, now you’ll get continued access for as long as you remain with Verizon on those plans."
In an interview with CNBC, Frank Boulben, Verizon Consumer Group’s senior vice president of marketing and products, explained how the company is viewing the future.
He explained, "The current value chain of the media business is not working. It’s broken. Content has a key role to play, but very different from what it used to be when we were more of a traditional [multichannel video programming distributor]."
These plans start at $45 per month, so it could be worth it to bundle the streaming platforms with your Verizon package. To put it in context, the Hulu basic plan costs $5.99/month; Disney Plus is $6.99/month, or an annual rate of $69.99.
