How to get a Lifetime Free Trial in 2025

If you already have other streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime, Philo is the perfect option to get access to Live TV without spending too much money. At $28, it has an offer that beats much more expensive services. Plus, in terms of the channel lineup, it has a little bit for everyone, from news channels like BBC World News to the Discovery Channel, to Nickelodeon and Vice.

Hulu with Live TV offers 95 live channels, as well as countless on-demand content from Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+, from $83/month. It does have a free trial, but it might be the shortest offer yet with a duration of just 3 days. It’s shorter than YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream, but it might be enough for you to decide whether the channel lineup, which includes local, sports, and entertainment networks like Bravo, TBS, TNT, Cartoon Network, Discovery, FS1, NFL Network, and ABC News are to your liking. To be eligible for the free trial, you have to either be new to Hulu or a returning customer who canceled a Hulu subscription over a year ago. You can test all of the streaming service’s features, like cloud DVR and device compatibility, during the free trial. Just remember to cancel before the period ends, otherwise, you’ll be charged the regular monthly fee.

Frndly TV just might be the most affordable live TV streaming service, but if you’re not sure if it’s you, you can try it free for 7 days if you’re a new customer. You’ll be able to access all of its 50 channels, which sadly excludes sports and major local networks, but includes other popular options like Hallmark, Lifetime, A&E, Grit, and ION. Local news may also be accessed via the channel LocalNow. If you’re not a new customer, no sweat: you can try their many add-on packs, also free for 7 days. Other noteworthy features include unlimited DVR, on-the-go streaming, up to 4 simultaneous streams, and 72-hour lookback, which lets you watch whatever’s been on the last 3 days.

Spectrum TV Choice is a live tv streaming service only available to Spectrum customers in serviceable areas. Its advertised price is $30/month, but you also have to pay an unavoidable broadcast fee for local channels, which makes the total cost about $53/month. If you think that’s steep, the good news is that Spectrum TV choice does offer a free trial so you can try out its channels (15 of which, you get to pick yourself from a wide array that includes ESPN and TNT) and different features. As for the length of that trial, the standard is 7 days, but that could change depending on your account history and area.
