Stop Netflix posting to Facebook!?

    So I signed up for Netflix using my facebook account, (didn't see any other method on the homepage) and now they post what I've watched and when every single time I watch something! It's rediculous.

    I foresaw this happening before I signed up, so I made sure to check my timeline after I watched and episode of The Office. I was reassured when the episode didnt appear on my timeline (to me). So today I got a notification that someone "liked an episode you watched on netflix".

    I am really annoyed that Netflix has the cheek to post what they want on my Facebook and hide it from me. I'm sure it's all down in the small print/License Agreements etc. but it's a sly move all the same. Who reads that sh1t? Basically all I want is to disable Facebook posting from Netflix without cancelling ym membership?
    thanks in advance! :D
    Mods: Please move this if you feel theres a more appropiate place for it

    Had the same problem. Go into settings on FB, account settings, then apps and websites and I just deleted the Netflix app. Hasn't been anything posted since.

    On Netflix, In the top right corner, click " YOUR ACCOUNT & HELP"
    Under the heading MANAGE ACCOUNT on the right click "MANAGE FACEBOOK"
    Then click "DISCONNECT FROM FACEBOOK"

    Sorted :cool:

    Is there any way to not post to facebook without removing your facebook account entirely? When I watch on my computer when the show is over I can click "do not share" (or something). However when I watch it on my TV I never see that option.

    Its nice having facebook associated with netflix for movie suggestions.

    You should be able to switch off the share to time line. There's a setting to be found. If not go to your timeline and you should be able to access the setting from the last Netflix entry on your timeline.
