What happened to Netflix’s Basic plan?
In a move over the summer, Netflix pumped the brakes on the U.S. availability of the Basic membership without ads for new or returning subscribers, which had risen to $11.99 / month.
Netflix says if you are currently on the Basic plan, you can remain on the plan until you change plans or cancel the account.
