According to the Netflix policy I am permitted to use my account anywhere that I go. There is even permitted to be two people on my account however I am the only one that uses it. My account only has me logged in at any given time. There is never two people logged in at the same time. I am constantly getting bombarded messages asking if this is my household and sometimes they say this is not my household or and I need to redefine my household and was trying to log into Netflix on my phone and they said that my phone is not my household and they would not let me into my account. These people are absolutely out of control. They are bullies and predators and trying to force me to buy a second account just for me only. I had the display the way that I wanted it after telling them that I did not like the new display in the last time that I tried to log into my account on my TV they said that this was not my household and that I must redefine my household and when I did that it gave me the display that I do not like.Business Response

Subject: Complaint Against Netflix Inadequate Content Rating Disclosure Dear Better Business Bureau,I am filing a formal complaint against Netflix, Inc., regarding an issue with their streaming service on June 12, 2025, which caused significant distress due to inadequate content rating disclosure.On June 12, 2025, while celebrating my ninth wedding anniversary, my spouse and I streamed The Town (rated R) on Netflix. The content advisory described violence, pervasive language, and some sexual content. Based on this, we expected mature themes but were not prepared for full ******, which was not disclosed.This unexpected explicit content caused emotional distress, particularly given the occasions significance. Had Netflix disclosed ****** in the advisory, we could have avoided the film. This omission fails to protect consumers from objectionable material.This experience has eroded my trust in Netflixs content warnings, essential for informed viewing choices. I am concerned other subscribers may face similar issues.I request:1A formal apology from Netflix.2Correction of the content warning for The Town to include ******.3Improved transparency in Netflixs rating system to clearly disclose explicit content.4A goodwill gesture, such as a partial refund or account credit.I expect a response within ********************************************************************** Netflixs service. Please contact me for additional information.Thank you for facilitating this complaint.Sincerely ****** *****Business Response

I am a victim of identity theft, and someone used my debit card without permission to pay for a Netflix subscription that I do not own or recognize. The charges occurred over 9 months, totaling about $200, before I discovered them in June of 2025. I contacted Netflix support and provided my FTC, which proves that the account was unauthorized. The name on the fraudulent Netflix account is ***** *******, a person I do not know. My bank was only able to refund the most recent 3 months of charges. They advised me to contact Netflix directly for the remainder. However Netflix has refused to issue a refund for the remaining 6 months, despite the evidence provided. I am requesting that Netflix refunds the rest of the unauthorized charges and close the fraudulent account associated with my card. I have documentation available and happy to provide it, if requested.Business Response

We purchased a second home, and I specifically checked the website as well as called customer service to verify that my existing account would actually be usable at this location both indicated it would. I followed the website instructions for streaming through my phone before leaving, which is burdensome to remember to do every time before you leave, especially for a service, I am paying for. The account process worked for the first three trips afterwards it would not work at all. Ive gone through all the troubleshooting multiple times. On the initial customer service call, they denied a transfer to someone with more knowledge and then hung up. My second call I got absolutely no help and given the same line about completing the troubleshooting steps I had already completed. I assume my issue is because you have some sort of location/IP tracking that blocks my ability to use at my second residence that is either an unintended overreach of your system or some other sort of glitch. However, there was no hope of me actually getting any resolution through your customer service process. Alternative, if this is your uniform policy to not allow viewing at a second residence within the same household, then you are engaging in false advertisement. I have wasted huge amounts of time, including what is supposed to be my vacation time trying to troubleshoot this for no resolution. You have wasted my time and money. I have been dealing with appeals through my health insurance and dealing with your company has provided me the same feelings of stress and *************** have programming that I would like to watch, but I cancelled my account because I cant actually access it in anyway that makes sense to my life and schedule. Your service should provide convenient access and enjoyment, I should have to be a slave to attempting to maintain access to it for it to not work anyway. You used to be a good company, but in recent years your focus seems solely on profit without serviceBusiness Response

I am rejecting this response because:This is not a response that is anyway attempts to resolve the issue. As I stated in the original complaint: I have already gone through their trouble shooting and information articles and have complied with all the arduous requirements of viewing on your phone at home each time before traveling to a second residence to insure that I would be able to view there and it still did not work, receiving the error message that it was not part of my household. Going through the troubleshooting steps only resulted in further error messages. The "I'm traveling" option had been removed as well. The customer service representatives only parroted back the same troubleshooting on the website without any further insight or assistance. Their only suggestion was to make my secondary residence, my primary residence in order to view there, which given the fact that have been unable to access my Netflix account at my secondary residence, which comparably I am at much less time I was not about to do this and lock myself out of my Netflix account at my primary residence. This also would not have resolved the problem. There is clearly a problem that goes beyond your basic troubleshooting steps and the corresponding extremely limited service your customer service number provides, but your response through BBB shows that you have made absolutely no effort to investigate the problem, let alone to try and solve it. I stated in my initial complaint that I would like to be able to watch the content available on Netflix, but I cannot afford to waste money on an account when I cannot actually access and watch said content when I am able to. Though I am at my secondary residence a minority of the time, I am effectively on vacation while I am there, so it represents a significant percentage of my time to be able to watch content. Your response is disappointing and comes off as callous and that you are uninterested in my business.

I am rejecting this response because:This response in no way addresses my issue. This is nearly identical to the previous response both of which are so generic that I question if they were generated purely by AI or if it’s an automated response directed towards any and all complaints or inquiries. If I could actually get appropriate assistance and resolution on this issue so that I could view at my second residence I would consider resubscribing, but without it you will be loosing a customer. I don’t know what else to say because given your response thus far through BBB as well as interactions with your customer service directly customer retention does not seem to concern you at all. I was recently at a family gathering and this topic came up, a number of my family members with cabins (second homes) are struggling with viewing as well, they indicated that they very much wanted to hear the outcome of my inquiry as they were uncertain how to get the help they needed and were questioning if they would continue their subscriptions as well. I was discouraged to learn this is not an isolated incident, but it also indicates despite the dismissiveness of your response to my inquiries that this is a persistent issue even when all the recommended steps you have posted on your website are followed.

Someone used my debit card information to initiate a Netflix account in May of 2023 and I was charged monthly for a Netflix account - anywhere between $20/month and $27/month, amounting to over $600 in total. When I finally caught the charges (2 years too late), I called Netflix and was told that there is an account using my debit card information, the Netflix account hasn't been used in some time, and they would not give me the email address or any associated information so that I can file a proper police report and pursue legal action against the thief. Netflix, however, is the company who knows that their low security and the policies of all authorities protect these thieves and Netflix's PROFITS. They were only willing to refund me for 1 month and my bank was only going to recover a few more of the payments for me because I took too long to find these charges. There was no other fraudulent activity on my account in the 2 year view I can see. Netflix knows. Netflix should be held accountable. Netflix should require security measures that protect their customers and I hope the law slams them eventually for every ***** they allowed to be stolen. They've been sued over less, so I hope a lawyer that's greedier than them takes on this class action lawsuit!Business Response

My Netflix account was hijacked. On April 21st, 2025 my credit card was charged ***** because the hijacker upgraded my Netflix account to a more expensive version. On April 3, 2025 my credit card was charged $8.74 for the standard version of Netflix which I pay monthly and have selected. When I called Netflix to check on my account they will able to reinstate my account with the standard version of Netflix. However they only refunded me the amount of the difference between the upgraded version of Netflix versus The Standard Version of which I use. Netflix only refunded me $18.62 and should have refunded me the total that I was charged for the upgraded version of the hijacker of Netflix. The total of $***** should be what I was refunded. Netflix still owes me $8.74. The Netflix system is obviously easily hijacked and was through no fault of my own that it was hijacked and modified. Netflix should refund me the remaining amount of $8.74 and also enhance their software to make it to where it is not easily hijacked.Business Response
