March 13, 2019
EE has launched new content offers with Amazon Prime Video and MTV Play featuring inclusive mobile data for new and existing EE pay monthly mobile customers.
The move comes in addition to EE’s existing Apple Music and BT Sport offers – which in total allow customers to save up to £164 (€191) on subscription costs, giving them access to a breadth of content options, as well as more flexibility on how, when and where they access content.
EE customers on pay monthly handset, tablet or 12-month SIM only mobile price plans can now get a six months subscription to Prime Video courtesy of EE, giving them access to a range of box sets, movies, original TV shows, documentary and exclusives – including Prime Originals like The Grand Tour, American Gods and Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan. Customers can use their log-in details across multiple devices including handsets, tablets, compatible TVs, gaming consoles, or Fire TV devices to bring Prime Video to life at home, and on the move.
EE is also giving customers a six-month subscription to the recently launched MTV Play app. Customers who download the app will have access to a vast array of MTV’s reality content on their mobiles or tablets, including hundreds of hours of catch-up and boxsets in addition to a live feed of the MTV UK linear TV channel and short form digital original series.
Popular titles available in the MTV Play app include the latest episodes of Geordie Shore, Teen Mom UK and The Charlotte Show in addition to The Hills, Catfish and Jersey Shore. Following their six-month trial EE subscribers will be given the option pay for the app on their monthly mobile bill.
Subscriptions to Prime Video and MTV Play feature in addition to the existing six-months subscription to Apple Music and three-months subscription to BT Sport (with big screen access) offers which EE provides customers and combined allows them to save up to £164 in subscription costs. EE is also providing customers with inclusive mobile data to watch the services during their six-month subscription period.
