Neflix on Tata Play – How to Watch?
Tata Play DTH service users will be getting Netflix on their TVs via purchasing 90 bundles. However, the pricing of these bundles are currently under wraps. Moreover, they would require a membership of the Tata Play+ service. Then, they can go on to purchase the Tata Play Netflix Combo plan.
Furthermore, with this plan, Tata Play DTH subscribers get access to Netflix, Binge and TV Channels, all together. An important thing to note here is that those users who are using the Tata Play services via a regular set top box will not be able to access the new content.
In order to do so, they would require the Tata Play Binge+ Smart Set Top Box. This special set top box allows users to directly access Netflix and other OTT platform services. Users can do so from the Home Screen and remote itself. Netflix on Tata Play can be streamed by selecting from the OTT service’s Basic, Standard and Premium plans. This can be done via the Tata Play Netflix Combo packs. Moreover, subscribers will be able to pay for the brand new service via Tata Play Wallet.
