Hulu + Live TV and Hulu (No Ads) + Live TV plan subscribers will also receive the $5.99 per month discount. If you want to upgrade to the Hulu (No Ads) bundle you can do it during the sign-up process. Important NoticeIf you didn’t previously have a Hulu account and signed up for the Disney Plus Bundle, there’s no way to switch to the Hulu (No Ads) or another plan. The only way this is currently possible is to cancel your Disney Plus Bundle subscription, then sign up for Hulu separately. From there, you can once again sign up for the Disney Plus Bundle using the steps above.
