Netflix is finally coming to BT YouView set-top boxes

Netflix is finally coming to BT YouView set-top boxes, after the telecoms firm struck up a deal with the video streaming service.

Customers will be able to add Netflix to their existing TV Entertainment package deal for an additional £5.99 a month.

"We continue to focus on strengthening our TV proposition and are excited to announce we have entered into a partnership with Netflix that will allow our customers to sign up for Netflix alongside our other products and services, with the added convenience of paying on one bill directly through BT," said the service provider in a statement.

Netflix has been a long time coming to YouView, which launched in back in 2012, its absence frequently cited as a glaring omission by consumers.


It is yet to be confirmed whether YouView customers who don't own a BT box will be able to access Netflix through the platform.


TalkTalk and Arqiva are also major backers of YouView, and their hardware could potentially be in store for the same update.
