    Mind me asking how you paid? I tried Revolut using various zip codes, including 90210, but no luck!

    I bought Hulu gift cards from mygiftcardsupply.

    Read on another forum that you can't get this deal with gift cards, so I'd check first before going that route.

    So are giftcards definitely out for this deal then?

    Or did anyone else get a gift card to work to sign up for the offer?

    Hi, can you confirm you used that for this weekend's deal please? Wondering where you would enter it in, theres a tab for credit/debit card and one for express check out options on the Hulu site. Does the gift card number go straight in the credit card entry?

    Redeem your giftcard here: https://secure.hulu.com/start/gifting.

    I used this method and there was no $0.99 offer available.

    So, does this work without a US credit/debit card? I tried Revolut with dollar currency but no joy.

    Hopefully someone did!

    I'm already on hulu and paid up till March so I couldn't avail of the offer.

    Looks like you can only get this with prepaid virtual US card and US Unlocked (the most trusted one) isn't tatking new customers at the moment
    Fees on top of loading inc 15dollar initial fee and various fees for different amounts so...

    I don't know if there are any more trustworthy US virtual card companies I'm sure there are

    Hi I tried this last night using ExpressVPN and Revolut and didn't work on Macbook.

    Tried again now on iPhone with ExpressVPN and Revolut- didn't work.

    Tried it with N26 and it worked! Got the $0.99 per month for a year. Downloaded app on to phone and have tried it and it works. :D:cool:

    I've been getting emails from mygiftcard telling me about the Hulu offer so you should be able to get it. I will say after being with Hulu for the last 6 months their redeem gift card link is hit and miss

    Looks like Hulu will be coming to Ireland anyway

    https://entertainment.ie/tv/tv-news/hulu-ireland-expansion-384798/

    *Don't know how reliable that article is

    Ive no doubt they will but like Netflix & amazon prime video they are restricted in what they can show in Ireland. This is usually down to the Irish channels having the rights to show programs.


    I'd imagine Hulu would be a tiny shadow of itself by the time it hits Ireland

    I checked what was available to watch and decided to give it a miss. Netflix, prime video, shudder and sky go got me covered in fairness!

    Decided to sign up for N26 and try that seeing as you had success with it, disappointed to see however after the painful verification process (but that's another story!) that you don't get a virtual debit card number to use right away like with Revolut. So I'm all outta luck on this one I guess. :(

    But congrats to whoever managed to nab the deal!

    If by painful process you mean trying to get it to accept your application and photo/ selfie then believe me I bought that t-shirt last month and was also disappointed at the time that I'd no virtual card to use. :(
    That is a shame. :(

    I set up a US PayPal account last night, but when trying to sign up for the Hulu deal it still wanted a US based card to pay, even though I preloaded the US PayPal account with $12 which I thought would cover the 12 month subscription. So no joy there for me that way either.

    Anyone get the US PayPal account to work?

    the offer seems to be finished now, but there's a 6 dollar ad free per month, wonder if that would work with the gift card site

    That's a good deal, half price essentially.

    " Valid for Limited Commercials plan only"

    It's for new and eligible return subs so reading the above posts about giftcards I'd say yes - BUT I don't know :)
