Yesterday, the Twitter handle of India’s largest fiber broadband ACT Fibernet sent out what seemed like a pocket tweet. It was a collection of randomly strung special characters and the picture of a whiteboard.
This post piqued the curiosity of Twitter users who wanted to know what the tweet was all about.
A closer look at the whiteboard hinted at something like ‘ACT Fibernet + Netflix’ that further gave rise to speculation.
Soon popular Twitter handles such as ScoopWhoop and YourStory too joined the banter.
After all the speculative and curious tweets, the cat was finally out of the bag. The ‘pocket tweet’ was in fact *drumroll* an ingenious way to announce a partnership between ACT Fibernet and Netflix India.
This announcement triggered a new wave of excitement.
Some were already considering switching their internet connection. Whoa!
For those who love binge-watching shows, this is definitely great news. Fiber broadband offers great bandwidth, which in turn means higher speeds. With ACT and Netflix India joining hands, you will now be able to seamlessly stream the best of 4K and HD content at incredible speeds. All you have to do is subscribe Netflix via ACT and you’re sorted!
It’s not just about an enhanced viewing experience. As part of this partnership, you will also get to avail kickass cashback offers, and mind you, this is the first time Netflix is offering cashback anywhere in the world. Let’s see how this works. While paying for your Netflix subscription through your ACT bill, you will get a cashback of upto Rs 350 per month. This makes Netflix’s Rs 650 plan (HD quality) and the Rs 800 plan (4K quality) so very affordable. This offer is available in Delhi, Chennai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad from today and will be subsequently available in other cities.
All in all, you get a great viewing experience as well as value for money. When was the last time you enjoyed such a win-win situation? So hurry up. Switch to ACT and take your Netflix experience to the next level.
