Netflix Price increase

    Just got notification of €2 pm price increase.

    €2 per month doesn't seem much, but in percentage terms it's sizeable, and they do that boiling frog trick, it'll be over 15% again next time, and repeat ad infinitum.

    It's spectacularly bad timing with inflation rising the way it is currently.

    We've got Prime and Disney also... and any shows I've already started watching on Netflix... well, I'll watch them by other means.

    Is €2 pm extra affordable, of course... it sticks in my craw considering other financial pressures Netflix are adding to for people.

    We've cancelled, after being with them since launch really. There's just too many other options out their now, the continual price increases getting annoying.

    Why anyone pays the normal Netflix going rate is beyond me - sign up via a VPN set to Turkey and pay in Turkish Lira. Netflix Premium is 55 Turkish Lira which translates to 3.39 euro.

    I agree that price increases may get annoying, but I'm not ready to give up netflix. For me, it's a very convenient app and there're a lot of interesting movies. Of course, it has some problems, every streaming service does. Last month a had trouble with payment, so I wrote to the netflix customer service and they fixed it very quickly. I'm satisfied with its work and don't want to change it.

    Did anyone actually get an email notification about the price increase? The only time I became aware about it is when I read a news article about it. Netflix have yet to inform me, even if I can see myself that the prices are now higher on their website .....

    Got one today, going from 14.99 to 16.99 a month.

    Got the email at the weekend notifying of the new monthly price of 16.99 a month. I've been a long time subscriber but have found myself using it less and less recently so took the increase as a sign to cancel it.

    Same here, got the netflix email plus Disney + email going up to €139.99 from €109. Time to cancel both before March.

    Netflix never off here as kids enjoy it and share a subscription with family but do any of the platforms offer discounts if cancel ?
