Everything you need to know about Netflix Pakistan - Netflix packages, prices and subsciption.

Netflix is a famous streaming platform that offers video content over the internet and on various other devices. The company has been around for quite some time now, but it's only recently started releasing its services in the Pakistani market. If you're wondering about how much it costs to subscribe to Netflix Pakistan or what kind of packages they offer, then this article should help shed some light on these topics.
Netflix Pakistan currently offers three types of subscription plans: Basic, Standard, and Premium. The Basic plan is the cheapest one, and it only allows users to watch standard definition video content on one machine at a time. The Standard plan costs a bit more, but it gives you access to HD streaming on two devices simultaneously. Finally, the Premium plan is the most costly option, and it lets you watch Ultra HD content on four devices at once.
All Netflix Pakistan subscriptions also come with a one-month free trial so that you can test out all the features before committing to anything. If you're not sure whether or not Netflix is right for you, then I suggest giving it a try using this offer. You might be stunned by how much you enjoy it.
Problems You May Face
Netflix is a great service for those who love to watch TV shows and movies, but you need to know something before subscribing. First of all, the catalog of content available on Netflix Pakistan is not as extensive as the one offered in other countries. This is because the company has to abide by local censorship laws, which can be pretty restrictive. However, they are constantly expanding their library, so new titles are being added all the time.
Secondly, internet speeds in Pakistan can sometimes be unreliable and slow. This could cause some buffering issues when streaming HD or Ultra HD content. If your internet connection isn't high-speed, I suggest opting for the Standard plan instead of the Premium plan. The Basic plan is not really worth the money in my opinion, so I'd advise you to stay away from that one.
How to buy a Netflix Subscription?
When you have decided on a plan suitable for yourself, it is time to purchase. Here are some steps in which one can get themselves subscribed with Netflix by purchasing through our website or PTCL!
Subscribe via Website
You can sign up for Netflix at the website. Just add your credit or debit card, and remember that you don't need to pay in advance since they will automatically charge it every month while giving you access with no risk (unless, of course, if something terrible happens).
X Remember: cancel anytime without a cancellation fee!
Subscribe via PTCL
In case you don't have any credit or debit card, and your bank does not allow for online payments on their site- there's another way! You can buy subscriptions through PTCL as well. First, go ahead and visit www.ptcl.com/netflix, where they'll ask what type of plan would work best for you, then signup with them using this info once logged into the account after completing the purchase process if desired...and voila: Instant access without waiting weeks between releases each time something new comes out.
Netflix Packages Pakistan
Netflix has finally come to Pakistan, and with it, a range of different packages. Here is the list of all the Netflix Packages in Pakistan with their prices:
Netflix MobilePlan (Rs 250/ month)
- Watch on one device
- SD quality only
- No commercials
Netflix Standard HD Plan (Rs 800/ month)
- Watch on two devices simultaneously
- HD quality only
- No commercials. Save up to 50% with this plan if you have an existing Netflix account from any country.
Netflix Premium Plan (Rs 1500/ month)
- Watch on four devices simultaneously
- HD and Ultra HD quality available for select titles
- No commercials. Save up to 50% with this plan if you have an existing Netflix account from any country.
So now that we know the prices, what are the best packages for us? Well, it all depends on our streaming needs and how many devices we can stream at a time. If you only need one device, then obviously, MobilePlan is going to be your choice. If you want to stream on more than one device, then Standard HD is your best bet.
If we compare the Standard and Premium plans, it becomes clear that there isn't a lot of difference between them except for the fact that with the Standard HD plan, you can only watch in SD quality, while with the Premium plan, you get access to some Ultra HD content as well. This is definitely a trade-off as the Ultra HD content on Netflix isn't that great, and it's barely visible to the human eye unless you have a huge TV screen.
So we would recommend going for the Premium plan if you really want access to Ultra HD content. Otherwise, Standard HD should be fine. The difference between Rs 800 and 1500 per month isn't that much, and it's not worth spending more than you have to. You can always switch plans in the future if Netflix comes up with something better, which we don't see happening anytime soon.
So this sums up all of our recommendations on different Netflix packages available in Pakistan at the moment. We hope this article helped you decide on a Subscription.
