[Closed] PSA: Disney+ & Topcashback

Oooh!

Book marked for later, cheers.

My mate gave me the heads up and it was the nudge I needed. My cashback hasn't tracked yet but they have recorded a visit. I was probably going to sign up for £50 to be honest!

Thank you, that's saved me a few quid 🙂

Balls! Ordered with the 50 quid deal but didn't think to go through TCB! I wander if they would cancel the order to do it again?

Was going to order it last night but didn't get chance then noticed the £15 TCB this morning.
Placed the order and cashback now tracked 🙂

Many thanks.
Was a bit undecided as to whether it was worth it, but can't argue for £35 for a year. It'll make the children happy

Yet again, Sky bundling stuff that you normally get with your standard package into something you have to pay extra for it.

Or am I wrong?

I don't, or ever will, have Sky so £35 for a year seems like a bargain to me.

It's not a Sky thing, It's Disney's own channel with all Disney stuff, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar...

You’re wrong this is streaming service provided by Disney not sky.

Ah, ok 🙄

You’re wrong this is streaming service provided by Disney not sky.

Thanks OP! I was going to do it anyway, but hand't gotten around to it yet.

Sky is now owned by Comcast, not Disney. Though seems like Disney will want to end contracts with Sky, and make more programmes exclusive to their own service.

Sky is now owned by Comcast, not Disney.

You realise Disney own Sky?

🤦🏻‍♂️

Cheers OP signed up a few hours ago hopefully it tracks.

Same offer now available through quidco for anyone with that rather than TCB.

Nice one - top PSA. Was mulling signing up to the pre-order and this made it a no brainer.

I've been looking into this and finding real facts a bit opaque...

I should be able to watch on PS4 - but there's no app.

My LG tv should have the Disney+ thing in the store; it hasn't.

Sky Q can carry it, but only by paying Sky directly.

Is everything going to appear when it goes live, or am I missing a trick?

@boomerlives yeah I've already signed up and am still hoping the app will appear on the LG TV app store soon. It's a bit weird even the web-site is just a "service not available yet" message rather than a countdown and maybe rolling previews.

I'm glad it's not just me!

I'd have signed up already if I some proof I could watch it.

I signed up to TCB for this. 24 h after signing up for D+ there’s no sign of anything in my TCB account. Should I be worried?

The app is on Google Play store but not downloadable yet.
I guess the TV/PS4 etc apps will be available once it goes live. Hopefully..

@timmys - TCB are stating 7 days for cash back.

The apps are not available yet because it doesn’t launch until 24 March.

I just did it with quidco and got £20 cashback and new members also get £17 bonus. Got signposted by a ladbible article.

Timmy, took about 12hrs for the money to appear in my TCB account.

Well 5 days in and not even a pending notice.

"Well 5 days in and not even a pending notice."

Same here

Mine seems to have gone to pending. Likely pays when the cooling off period is over?

Mine tracked pretty much straight away - in the account as 'pending'..

DrP

Mine also still showing in pending.

I'm in the nothing showing camp, first experience if them is not good...

Pending here, also thanks @stevied for the heads up

Just joined topcashback for this and the offer has expired 🙁

I’m in the nothing showing camp, first experience if them is not good…

I’ve used periodically over the years as I have had this problem before and ended up chasing them.

Quidco one was within an hour.

Nothing tracked here after 5 days either.

Not sure how we can raise a case either, as I have no order ID and when I try and login online to D+ is just says: "Service Unavailable"

Im concerned about how to watch before signing up. Ignoring tablets & mobiles, ive a nowtv stick and non-android sony tvs...a bit of digging suggests the nowtv stick will get the app but not from the launch date

Pending for me. Was within 24hrs.
Maybe new accounts are taking longer or have to go through extra checks?

With it looking like schools will be closed soon it'd be a bonus if they could bring the launch date forward a few days! I think we've already exhuasted anything worth watching for the kids on Netflix and Amazon Prime

Maybe new accounts are taking longer or have to go through extra checks?

I’ve had my account for years.

Just gone to sign up and it says cashback not currently available on Disney+

Did anyone else try today?

It ended a few days ago.

Roll on the 24th now that I'm WFH and the schools will be shut from Friday...

I'd guess for those that didn't get it, that the site didn't register your visit. I always chack having had this in the past.

It ended a few days ago.

Oh, thanks.

🙁

It's worth checking your TV will have the App to watch this, mine doesn't 🙁

If you have the NOW TV App, it's meant to be watchable via that. Anyone know if you'll need to purchase subscription through NOW TV for that to work??

What other devices will Disney+ work on?
Disney+ compatible devices include most Apple devices, including Apple TV, Android phones, tablets and Android TV. Google Chromecast, some smart TVs from LG, Samsung and Sony, Roku devices, PS4 and Xbox One, and desktop browsers.

Philips has confirmed its Android-based smart TVs will support Disney Plus, and Amazon has confirmed its Fire TV devices will feature the service too.

The app isn’t released yet in many of those.

An hour left before the £49.99 offer expires if folk do want to subscribe for the year

Anyone know if there's a minimum subscription length if you pay monthly? tempted to binge it for a couple of months and then see if its still worth it after that.

Seems the cash back deal is not available any more :-(. People selling shared accounts on eBay though 🧐

Yes it ended about 2 weeks ago.

I still never received my cash back or pending so an appeal is in.

Still pending for me, something else I bought on the same day is still showing confirmed not payable. Does it normally take a long time to process?

It won't go to confirmed until after the cooling off period.

Anyone else using it on an LG webOS TV? The interface is soooo slow. I push a button the remote and about 5 seconds laterit responds. It's driving the children crazy because the assume that it hasn't reigstered the click and keep pushing buttons. Then it eventually responds and goes off somewhere unintended.
Oddly once it starts streaming though it's absolutely fine.

Also, works absolutely fine on the Fire Stick upstairs.

It’s fine on my LG C7. No lag.

"It won’t go to confirmed until after the cooling off period."

Not even registered so have logged an appeal

So after raising a case, it has now tracked and been added to my account but looks like they're only wanting to pay out £11.60 based on a £38.66 spend rather than £15/£49.99 for some reason.

Same here, £11.60 instead of £15.

Ditto, have queried it with them... first impression of Topcashback is not good...

I’m still waiting to hear about my claim.

Did anyone take a screenshot of the Topcashback site sowing the offer?

Thanks Drac

No problem.

Dropped them another message and amount is now showing as £15.00 and confirmed.

Excellent. Mine has finally been submitted to Disney+ 🤦🏻‍♂️

Mine showing as confirmed too

Yeah, me as well, no sign of it being actual cash though.

Well 9 months later I’ve got my cashback. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

not sure if its been posted before but on many o2 contracts you can have it as a bolt on for free for 6 months.

Well 9 months later I’ve got my cashback. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Me too. First time using Topcashback - somewhat underwhelmed by the experience!

Likewise, takes too long, stuff gets rejected, obviously a habit you need to get into, then I suppose what do you want for free cash?

Is Disney really any good?

I’ve been using a login for a month or so and so far it’s just rubbish

Well if you don't like the content then I guess it's rubbish. Not exactly a surprise what you are going to get on a Disney channel though is it?

I've been surprised how much I have enjoyed it, mainly due to access to the old stuff in gorgeous Dolby Vison, but also much more varied new content than I expected.

Yeah it's been better than expected but then I'd just pay for Mando, kids have used it a lot, things like Hamilton were an unexpected bonus. There is more than pure Disney but if its gritty drama you are after them it's not surprisingly rubbish.

For £25 it was well worth the entire Marvel collection, except spidey, Star Wars collection and Pixar. Then the money shot that was well worth it for £25 The Mandalorian 2 series of Star War fan porn.

Hopefully when I come to cancel they’ll offer a deal.

Star was released today basically it’s adult Disney. Disney owns a lot of stuff so it’s pretty full of choice.

my 12 month subscription is coming to an end... will renew at £60 per year..not too bad..might look out for cashback offers though..
