So the Verizon deal (even if you're eligible) requires people to sign up for it...agreeing that when the year is up, you'll automatically be billed $6.99 a month for the service - no info yet on how to cancel. So it may just be easier to ignore the deal altogether than to worry about jumping through hoops a year from now.

I would imagine it a simple thing to do on the site like all the other streaming services.

Just about all of them are like this.
This is a weird way to justify Not signing up..

If it's through Disney, sure. If it's through Verizon, forget it...they don't offer live online chat (it's just a bot) or an email address to reach them. You have to call them to cancel most stuff (easy to add/hard to cancel).

I can't imagine you'll be billed for Disney + through Verizon... why would disney allow that? You'll need a sign in with Disney to get in, and they just link your account so they know you have Verizon and get it free for a year. They won't allow Verizon to take money for them because why involve a middleman?

That makes sense. however, if you were to quit T-mobile or if T-mobile were to discontinue offering it for free, they wouldn't keep charging you through T-mobile. I think that's what the trepidation is here, that when the free Disney + runs out there's going to be a hassle cancelling through Verizon.

If I wasn't signed up for the D23 membership, sure I wouldn't turn down a free year...but my concerns aren't just about cancelling, it's about Verizon somehow messing up the three years I've already signed up for at less than $4 a month (yes, Disney says they'll postpone the three years to allow me to get the free Verizon year...but I'm wary that that's going to go smoothly).

According to Verizon, the charge for Disney+ (after the first free year) will be added to your Verizon monthly bill.

I got an email back from Disney and they told me the following:
However, they also told me that Verizon isn't sending out an email until Nov. 12 or LATER (to sign up for the free year) - so I guess my multi-year plan will start as planned anyway.
Anyway, from what Disney said, it sounds like they ARE handling the billing...although Verizon is telling customers otherwise (that the monthly cost after the free year will show up on their Verizon bills).
"If you already purchased an annual or multi-year plan, the free year will simply be added on to that subscription."

A little more than a week for its release and I’m anxiously waiting for the app to drop on the App stores. Also, nothing here in Canada in terms of promotion for subscription like they did in the US.
