New device with free year of appletv+

I recently bought a new iPhone and have the option to subscribe to appletv+ for a year for free. Yet when I go into the app anything in appleTv+ other than the free first episode I would have to pay the subscription. Why do I get a free year of appletv+ and still have to pay a monthly fee to access fee to the shows on appletv+?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

The free year is not automatic. You have to redeem the offer and start the subscription. Then you get the first year free.

If you qualify, and if you did as described in the guide, and you still do not get to see the year offer, then contact Apple Support. They can assist in getting you the service, if needed using activation codes.
