Netflix is one of the most popular streaming platforms, but the monthly cost can be a burden on your budget.
The good news is that there are still legal ways to access Netflix without paying anything, mainly through partnerships with mobile and TV operators.
This article shows you how you can get Netflix for free or at a deep discount, depending on your plan. T-Mobile, Verizon, or Xfinity.
