      I pay with prepaid **** card. I used a prepaid card I have used before. It wouldn't go through. The payment is $17.99. I put $20.00 on the card. It wouldn't go through. I swore it was the card company and cussed them out. Only to find it was Netflix. They said there needed to be $36.00 on the card. I let them have it. I asked for what. I then said you know what it doesn't matter. There is more than enough for the payment. Either take it or lose a customer. Needless to say they took it. But still why put a customer through all that bs? I am seriously thinking of switching to another service.

      We pay for a premium household account at ********************. Our family includes my husband, two daughters, and me. Our oldest daughter is a college student at a school in a different state. Netflix is keeping her from using our account because she does not have her device on the same wifi. It seems like Netflix is trying to cheat families by making them pay extra for their children's devices when those children are away at school. Netflix customer service has a work around that requires my husband, whose email and phone are tied to the account, to receive a code and send it to her everytime she wants to watch something. That, to me, is making the contract for their service overly burdensome and the "household" description of the plan deceiving.

      Netflix has been charging me for an extra member since 09/2024 which i never selected, signed up for or agreed to, sounds like a major scam. I contacted today and they were only able to refund three charges. I need to be fully refunded for these charges back dating to 09/2024

      My account was upgraded to a more expensive account twice without knowledge or consent. I requested a refund for the 6 months in which I was billed for this, which is the time it took me to realize the mistake as my account is on auto-pay. Netflix declined to give me a refund.

      Netflix added another account on my account 30 minutes after I paid for my service and when I called the supervisor was rude and refused to fix the problem after 9 days of service the second account was never activated or used because Netflix assumed I myself was an additional person trying to steal money and upgrade my account from the 7.99 plan forcing customers into higher plans by force and stealing money out of their accounts without their knowledge

      I canceled my subscription with Netflix, which was provided through my cell phone service, because of Netflixs' ever increasing rates.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
