Why is the price of Neon increasing?
So that we can bring you premium and exclusive shows like House of the Dragon, The Handmaid's Tale and Yellowstone, as well as the latest blockbuster movies.
Is there a more affordable option?
Yes! You can choose an Annual Plan or monthly Basic Plan.
From 15 August, Neon's Annual Plan is $179.99 per year, which equals $14.99 per month (a saving of 16% over 12 months compared to our Standard Plan).
Neon's Basic Plan is $12.99 per month (a saving of $5 per month compared to our monthly Standard Plan). On a Basic Plan, you can still access all the great TV shows and movies Neon has to offer, but your video quality and access to features including downloads, devices and profiles is reduced when compared to Neon's monthly Standard Plan and Annual Plan.
What is a basic plan?
The Basic Plan offers:
- Maximum of 1 screen you can watch at anytime
- Maximum of 2 profiles
- SD video quality only (up to 540p), and best suited for smaller screens or capped data plans
- No downloads
- Full access to Neon's entire catalogue of TV shows and movies
Neon’s Basic Plan is available from 15 August. You will not be able to sign up to the Basic Plan or downgrade your existing plan to the Basic Plan until this date.
How do I change my plan?
You can change your Neon plan at any time by following these steps:
- Sign in to your Neon account.
- Under Manage Your Subscription select Change Plan. (Please note, you won’t be able to see Change Plan if you already have upgraded and downgraded your plan once in the same billing period).
- Choose the desired plan, then select Select [Type] Plan. (e.g. “Select Annual Plan”),
A plan upgrade takes effect immediately so you can enjoy all of the added features. Since Neon is a prepaid service, on upgrade you will be charged the difference between what you have already paid for your current month and the balance due for your new plan.
A plan downgrade with a lower price takes effect on your next billing date. You can continue to use the features of the higher plan until your next billing date.
For example, you can upgrade from Basic to Standard or from Standard to Annual in the same month. However, if you downgrade your plan, your downgrade will only take effect on your next billing date.
If you wish to cancel your plan, find out how here.
Neon’s Basic Plan is available from 15 August. You will not be able to sign up to the Basic Plan or downgrade your existing plan to the Basic Plan until this date.
