Thousands cancel Netflix or Prime Video as UK cost of living crisis bites harder

Almost 800,000 of us in the UK have now cancelled our subscriptions to either Netflix or Amazon Prime Video - as the cost of living crisis continues to squeeze our cash.

Under-the-cosh viewers reluctantly axed their accounts in their droves between April and June, according to a survey by the Broadcast Audience Research Board (Barb).

It said the number of homes able to access at least one subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service plunged from 19.57m in the first quarter to 19.19m at the end of the second - a net decrease of 382,000.
