Netflix has increased its subscription prices in the UK, after it raised its charges in the US, Canada, Argentina and Portugal last month. The new UK price for a Standard subscription without adverts, the platform's most popular plan, has risen by £2 to £12.99 a month, with other packages also increasing.

Netflix has hiked the price of its monthly subscription – including for existing members. The standard subscription will go up by £2, and will now cost £12.99. But all tiers of subscription are affected by their own price changes, including the one that requires viewers to watch ads before their films and TV shows.
