I shared with my sister and now can't so got Netflix the only way to use it on my Kindle tablet is if I pay $9.9 9 instead of $6.99 outrageous! You are a greedy entity netflix! And certainly would not have Netflix if it wasn't practically forced. None of the other streamers do it just you! I don't mind the ads you shouldn't Force us to have to pay more just so we don't have ads. I want my 6.99 price with streaming on my Kindle tablet!

Netflix
June 18, 2023

Netflix has to be the worst. It freezes all the time and when I tried to call they said they can't help me. They want you to pay 20 dollars for poor service. Why would anyone do that. It will not let you stay on to watch a movie it just brings you back to the Home Screen. They also will not let you get your money back you have to keep something all month that does not work. Out of 5 stars they have a 1.5 rating and they took the review page off because they said too many people were complaining

Netflix new account restrictions to limit sharing is flawed. My wife and I do not share our account with anyone. We do use our account at our home and our cabin. We are not able to use it now at our cabin because of this. We were told we need to pay 7.99 more a month to do this. Not to mention the increases in membership costs of the past few years. Could not be more disappointed in the service. Talk about a company making tons of money just wanting more out of hardworking people.

Boycott netflix.
June 15, 2023

Appearently, we signed up under share on 4 devices, an since netflix sees it has more accounts then subscribers. So they make it to where everyone has to pay.
Originally what the agreement was can be played on 4 devices.
I say we boycott netflix like we did Budweiser an hit there pockets. Make them uphold there agreement

Overrated
June 12, 2023

The new sharing clause is laughable. Moves /shows are old. There is too many streaming sites that allows sharing to even consider it. Take notes from blockbuster and the Redbox movies. Oh wait they are nonexistent. The ppl has spoken. Our password our money u can't tell me what to do.
Cancelled

I have been a long time member and can't even get on it anymore on my Smart TV with Apple TV.
They are apparently also trying to get rid of their good customers. I cancelled and I won't be going back.

Leave me alone
June 11, 2023

I'm trying to watch an old series on Netflix and it just keeps shutting off.I realize these greedy scumbags need to get paid from every single gle domicile, even though some of our kids are serving our nation and live in other cities and or countries to protect you freedoms, you need to generate qs much money as possible so my son can no longer share my Netflix, hope the 15 or 20 dollars is worth it to your greedy pos..

Horrible service. Apparently they think they're the next dish with every channel? LOL. Since the password sharing isn't allowed anymore I've done my best to spread the word. I myself canceled, and talked 2 friends and my aunt into cancelling. Still trying to get more people to cancel. It's crazy, because Hulu is 10x better and they aren't even this greedy. Hope the 1 million plus users that quit within the first few months and millions more are worth that extra $7.99.

We love Sex Life. Please don't take it away from us. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. That being said, WE LOVE NEXTFLIX SEX LIFE. It's one of my favorite favorite shows.

I can not believe I paid for a family plan and my daughter who lives elsewhere now has to pay. Ridiculous! As if Netflix doesn't make enough money considering they are the number one stream for movies. You lost a customer I will get Apple TV!

I own one television and have had to contact customer service several times to verify my account as required by Netflix. Netflix continues to accuse me of password sharing each time I contact the customer chat. They're so paranoid and greedy they're going to lose customers for their accusations. I just want to watch my one television that I pay streaming for without Netflix creating constant drama and wasting my time with each verification customer chat.

New Blockbuster
June 5, 2023

Netflix is following the path of blockbuster. Get with the times and recognize that people don't want to drop multiple hundreds of dollars on multiple streaming services. They remove any show they make that's enjoyed despite positive reviews and if your family tries to save money by sharing an account they penalize you for that too. These greedy corporations are why pirating is coming back. Make it easy to get the content people want, and the product gets purchased. Make it hard, and people give you the finger and find workarounds. Learn from your mistakes Netflix and you might see our money again.
