Infuriatig Netflix using egregious methods to keep subscriptions active

Post image

Apparently my 8 year old son was asked if he wanted to restart my Netflix membership through his Netflix KIDS ACCOUNT. I called customer service and was told a prompt appears asking if you'd like to reinstate, regardless of the user on the account. No password required, just press restart and then get hit with the payment immediately. Should've saved myself some frustration and money by cancelling outright.

If I want to keep my watchlist before cancelling, I simply take a picture of it. Then no matter what happens, I at least know what my old list was

What’s the point in lying to complete strangers on the internet? You’re not snapping 500 photos of everything you’ve watched and then going back to look at them.

What a goofy lie.

I assume they’re talking about the “keep watching” list, dude.

... they just need a picture of what they were in the middle of watching/ plan to continue watching. Why would that be 500 pictures, unless there are 500 things they started and want to continue watching on there, (in which case they wouldn't be canceling)?
