The Walt Disney Company , which has been recently making headlines since its 17 September decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show on ABC, said on Tuesday that it would be raising the price of its streaming services – including Disney+ and bundles that include Hulu and ESPN.

On 21 October, the cost of a Disney+ and Hulu package will increase from $10.99 to $12.99 while an ad-free plan with both will still cost $19.99. Plans with Disney+, Hulu and ESPN, with ads, were previously $16.99 and are soon to be $19.99, according to Disney’s website.

Disney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Consumers have been vocal about Disney’s handling of Kimmel in recent days, responding by canceling their subscriptions to Disney+ and bundles with Hulu and ESPN Select.
