By bundling their services into one package,
TELUS and Koodo customers can save up to 20% and enjoy
French-language and international content from multiple streaming
services, all from just $25 a
month.
MONTREAL, Aug. 29,
2024 /CNW/ - Today, TELUS announced the
expansion of EnContinu+, a new streaming offering with
packages including Club illico, Netflix and Prime Video for TELUS
and Koodo customers. Online streaming service lovers can now access
plenty of French-language titles, along with an array of
international content, from the comfort of their homes or on the
go, by bundling their favourite streaming services together in one
place. These affordable packages are available from just
$25 a month, close to 20% savings off
the prices of the individual services.
By bringing three of Quebec's
most popular streaming services into one plan, EnContinu+ has
everything you need for the perfect binge-watching marathon, from
heartwarming sitcoms and classic movies to captivating documentary
series. Among this fall's most eagerly awaited titles and the most
popular series right now on Club illico are the Quebec series Société Distincte, a
mysterious and action-packed tale that reached over a million
viewers shortly after its release; the third season of the police
series Portrait-robot; and starting September 19, the new drama series Danse!,
a fictional adaptation of the reality show Révolution
written by Sarah-Maude Beauchesne.
Viewers also won't want to miss the exclusive series 1883,
available since June, and the first season of 1923, both
mini-series based on the smash hit Yellowstone. On
October 23, Club illico will rebrand
as illico+ following its merger with Vrai. This change will offer
fans of French-language entertainment a broader selection of
content catering to diverse tastes, all conveniently available in
one location. On Netflix, Jusqu'au déclin, the first Netflix
film from Quebec, is a must-see,
along with the Ricardo Trogi classics 1981 and 1987.
Finally, on Prime Video, the documentary I Am: Céline Dion
is a must-watch, as is LOL: Last One Laughing, for anyone in
the mood for a good laugh.
"We're proud to be the first in Quebec to offer a streaming bundle including
French-language content on EnContinu+, in addition to ICI TOU.TV EXTRA, which is already included with
subscriptions to our mobile and wireline services," says
Nathalie Dionne, Regional
Vice-President, Marketing for TELUS in Quebec. "Our priority is to continue
developing our range of products and services to offer our valued
customers an unsurpassed entertainment experience. The new
EnContinu+ bundle that includes Club illico, Netflix and Prime
Video allows us to expand the range of content we offer with
thousands of hours of French-language content and original
productions from right here in Quebec, while also celebrating and supporting
Quebec culture in all its forms.
TELUS, formerly Québec-Téléphone, is celebrating close to 100 years
of history, innovation, and close connections with the Quebec community. For TELUS, it's essential to
ensure that our offerings resonate with our customers here."
EnContinu+ offers two exciting new streaming bundles:
- Basic Plan: Ideal for streaming enthusiasts seeking
great value, this bundle includes Netflix Standard with ads, Club
illico, Prime Video and TELUS Films & Series from just
$25/month.
- Premium Plan: Perfect for those desiring ad-free
streaming experience and exceptional value, this bundle includes
Netflix Premium, Club illico, Prime Video and TELUS Films &
Series for $38/month.
EnContinu+ includes not only Prime Video, but a full membership
to Amazon Prime (valued at $9.99 per
month or $99 per year), giving
customers access to unlimited fast, free delivery on millions of
items, including One-Day Delivery to most cities and towns and Same
Day Delivery in select cities, ad-free listening of millions of
songs on Amazon Music Prime, free gaming benefits with Prime
Gaming, thousands of books with Prime Reading, unlimited photo
storage with Amazon Photos, among others.
Streaming fans can easily add the new EnContinu+ streaming
bundle to eligible TELUS and Koodo services directly via their
accounts. Last spring, Koodo launched the Happy Stack offer, which
gives Quebec residents even more
reasons to smile by bundling affordable home Internet, phone and
entertainment services. Plus, TELUS and Koodo home Internet and
mobility customers also get access to content from ICI TOU.TV EXTRA at no cost. They can watch
content on multiple devices simultaneously, including their TVs,
smartphones, tablets and laptops. Customers can manage all of their
subscriptions in one place, and binge watch their favourite movies
and TV shows at home or on the go – any time, any place. Most
of the existing subscribers with one or more of the four streaming
services can now link their existing accounts to the EnContinu+
bundle and enjoy incredible savings without any changes to their
settings, viewing history or profiles. For more information and to
