Beginning Sunday, T-Mobile customers will be able to stream Netflix, Hulu and HBO from their phones without it counting against their mobile data plans.
Under the new Binge On program, mobile data consumed by participating video streaming platforms will no longer be included in subscribers’ data usage totals. The company announced the news at a Los Angeles event on Tuesday.
The changes will take effect on Sunday, Nov. 15 for new customers and Thursday, Nov. 19 for existing customers.
The 24 streaming platforms that are currently included in the carrier’s Binge On program are Verizon’s Go90, AT&T’s DirecTV, Crackle, Encore, ESPN, Fox Sports, Fox Sports Go, HBO Now, HBO Go, Hulu, MLB, Movieplex, NBC Sports, Netflix, Sling TV, Sling Box, SHOWTIME, STARZ, T-Mobile TV, Univision Deportes, Ustream, Vessel, Vevo and VUDU.
The program is open to any streaming video provider that meets the technical requirements, and is free for providers to join.
