Brace yourselves, Netflix users: the streaming behemoth is reportedly scheming to hike up the prices of its ad-free plans. According to The Wall Street Journal, this change is expected to kick in a few months after Hollywood’s strike resolution. But, in true cliffhanger fashion, they’ve left us hanging on the details of the new pricing structure and its timeline.

Now, you’d think Netflix would step up and give us some clarity, right? Nope. They chose to zip it when asked to comment. Classic move, Netflix.

That was a strategic move to nudge customers towards the $6.99 per month ad-supported plan or the pricier tiers. Netflix CFO Spence Neumann, in a recent investor call, stated we’re “more than a year out” from any price hikes in major markets.
