3 Donegal Holloway  · Pay money to then watch stupid adds.... No thanks.
1 Gemzy85  · The Michael Jackson documentary is nothing but a corrupt money grab full of twisted lies.
1 Tim  · Definitely not as much content as other providers now and having ads on a paid subscription is greed when you see their revenue, will unsubscribe
5 Julie  · An amazing streaming platform with never ending shows and movies to watch. They are constantly adding new things to stream.
1 Adrian A.  · I watch more Ad's then the movies. YouTube doesn't have this much Ad's. This is called profit greed. I'll be cancelling my subscription end of this month.
1 Ron  · I am feed up with the Leftist views that are becoming so prevalent on Netflix. I am seriously considering cancelling my subscription with Netflix.

Financial scammers? You have to pay to view their content and they expect you to review their content without payment. Who thinks leaving reviews for commercial products should come without a financial reward. I complete surveys daily that actually pay for my time and effort. Are they crazy or scammers who think they can do what ever they want?

Hi, I have Netflix service paid account. We watch Indian cinema movies, documentaries on Netflix. The problem with Indian actors is that they do more than just A. So what I mean is they do exactly opposite of what Hollywood does. I live in Australia and pay in dollars for this subscription. I am happy to pay more but I don’t want any disturbance… Read more

from these Indian actors. That’s also the reason that I gave you one star because you are not able to do weapp on these. If you do we app on these then they don’t be here in my house doing acts more than A.

Dara singh Veteran indian actor who want to help said aa hi hu. So you can play his movies on Netflix.

Thanks Nitin Babbar Melbourne Australia M-0431596438

This new setup, where you can’t use other wifi’s is a huge issue, especially when it is your own device, that you will be taking home with you again. I cannot use my iPad at work (where I work with kids who watch Netflix for educational purposes). I work for myself and I should have access for what I have purchased at all times. I shouldn’t have… Read more

to spend money on an extra account and make up a fake email address just to use my normal account outside of home. The other issue with the extra email, is that it doesn’t save what you already have on your account, so you don’t know where you are up to. This is a huge issue and goes against the rights of the customers who are paying for the account. Not to mention that kids who are flying on planes and are travelling outside of home, cannot use their accounts…… the logic here is terrible.

Recently, Netflix has taken complete control of my layout design. *Therefore, now, I cannot easily get to my recent choices etc or to my old choices of genres & do a search etc. *To get to Search I have to flick through a batch of enlarged videos, that start up, if you hover too long. **Whereas before, I could flick to the side & straight up to… Read more

'SEARCH' I cannot 'readily' access the LIST of GENRES - eg. Comedies - Action - Kids & Family - Horror - Documentaries etc etc >> Netflix has now become NON-USER FRIENDLY. **Prior to this change, I always thought it was a great USER FRIENDLY APP. It's so bad, that I'm thinking of ditching Netflix. NB: I realise I'm part of the group of people they are using to trial this out. But Netflix is planning to change to this crappy layout permanentlyfor everyone. Obviously, a pack of morons put their heads together to ensure we no longer can easily make choices about what we watch. Therefore ensuring we are pushed (through sheer frustration) into watching their latest stuff. ***There's plenty of other TV APPS to choose from.

On the Netflix app on ps4, it read welcome to your new plan. I didn’t change my plan and Netflix wanted to know what sort of ads I wanted to see. I was quite happy paying 12.99 monthly, with no ads. Now the rorters want 18.99 monthly, which Netflix is definitely not worth that amount. Greedy shareholders and a scam!!

Was happy enough paying $12 per month for their rather ordinary veiwing range, but they decided to run adds for extra revenue. Dropping the account… Read more

to $8 unless you want to pay $16 for the original ordinary service with no adds is not a compromise, its double dipping. At least they could give us the means to fast forward/skip the adds that no-one wants to see. They get paid to show them to people who pay not to see them, but are now forcing us to watch them unless we pay more.

 Follow-up  · Just been notified that the $8 service with adds is now going up to $10 after only a couple of months. Unjustified greed for the sake of shareholder profits. If their veiwing range wasn't so poor it wouldn't be such an insult, so I have switched to HBO Max. Netflix needs to provide an option to skip or fast forward adds at the very least, otherwise they are no different to standard tv veiwing that we don't have to pay for.

 Follow-up  · I was paying $12 per month for some time for the service with adds, the same price I was paying for the premium. I've since paused the service for over a month now and intend using the 3 months max before closing my account. The adds run between… Read more

Considering change of streaming service – I have had a Netflix subscription for years. At first it was worthwhile but nowadays I question the worth. Very few new series etc. I'm considering cancelling my subscription and look for a different streaming service.

 Follow-up  · I don't think much has changed. I finished watching some series and have started reading books more. Kindle have a great selection.

The advertising is becoming more frequent. Cannot watch a movie without up to 8 advertising breaks. Ridiculous you have to pay for adds with any type of subscription let alone money grabbing to need revenue from advertising. Why pay more for a subscription just to stop advertising.

 Follow-up  · Well the advertising has gotten worse. It's a bloody joke to get you to pay more dor an interupted subscription. What's unreal is a lot of its government advertising waisting tax payers money. Both the above is an absolute joke

I really don't have anything bad to say about Netflix except for I don't know why when you pause the screen they have to have the title and select whether you you love this or like this or not for me and all this writing showing up when you paused the screen you may want to review or read something because a lot of time the writing goes too fast… Read more

for me, there is no reason to have this screen pop up when you pause a movie. And I am sure if you ask a million people about this they will say it's a problem and there is no reason for it, please remove. Thank you

Exceptional customer service. My child accidently restarted our subscription. I was able to speak to Netflix rep immediately, she was friendly and professional and amazingly was happy to refund us and cancel the account right away. They certainly were not obligated to do that, and it was incredibly appreciated. Very rare to find such large organisations willing to do what’s best for a customer when they have all the rights not to!

What a pleasure it is to not constantly be asked for additional payment to watch shows, as on other sites, after having already paid for the original service. It’s becoming almost impossible to watch anything without being asked for extra payment, while still paying the monthly fee. Good on you Netflix

Very limited content, and having ads on a paid subscription is extremely disappointing. I believe charging customers for a subscription while still showing ads is simply unacceptable. I’ll be unsubscribing.

I want to look for new an varying content and I can't get it because I am being prevented from enjoying the service they way I would like. I would like to see the end of the algorithm as it is only a… Read more

There are many things wrong with Netflix - cost / cancelling great shows etc however the worst is watching either a movie or series where they don't speak English and the mouths of the actors dont align with their speaking !! Its so infuriating that my house Maiden I simply don't watch the show it's the most annoying thing ever seriously Netflix do you not look at what your showing ?? Obviously not as long as you make your money

Paid service but you will still get ads unless you pay more. Seems to remove more content than they add. Anything you usually watch or enjoy gets removed and put onto yet another paid service. Ever increasing subscription pricing with ever reducing content. What are we paying for at this point? As it's no longer choice of what to watch as its usually been removed....

I tried to get help today from Netflix support, the connection kept cutting out plus I could hardly understand what she was saying. I have the basic Netflix subscription, I can watch it in my bedroom but not in the lounge room, it just circles at 0%, the support person told me it’s not compatible with my TV as it’s a Netflix with ads subscription, terrible customer service.

Charge me $28.99 a month and then won't let me watch anything because they say I'm using too many screens. Total rubbish I only have one TV with netflix setup on. It just lists the same show four times, says it's my profile that's currently watching the same movie four times and thus I'm not allowed to watch it a fifth time on my tellie. Support… Read more

were just rude and said it's not their issue, which is ridiculous. So cancelled my sub. Customer service for these large corps is just insane, cheaper to just ditch you as a customer than pay someone to troubleshoot an issue with their tech.

Netflix promised that if you don’t pay to eliminate ads that the ads would disrupt the show. What a lie! Over the course of time they certainly do disrupt the show. They have added more and more ads. Shame on you Netflix!!

I don’t understand why most new Netflix movies are so dark even when they’re shot during the day. I can’t see the actors or many times anything………I feel like I should just cancel my subscription turn off the tv and watch the screen at least that would save me some money……..

Outraged by Title “Benedata” advertised as a religious movie depicting true events in 16th century Italy which was a cover of Graphic blood and gore, Lesbian SEX on the scale of a sleazy XXX porno movie. We are Christian and are appalled that this would show up on our movie options.

A lot of series are European and dubbed in English. Actors in a lot of shows are unknowns and pour acting. I Also movies are what I have seen in the past. Years ago. I do a lot of surfing and spend about up to half hour watching then try and find another show. Netflix spend a lot of time on series than movies. Although have come across on a few movies that are worth watching. Show details

Rubbish all the same. Small details overlooked like when watching a movie they speak in a foreign language for w sentences and it just says speaking foreign language in subtitle. You miss out on most of the plot because they’ve overlooked 2 sentences. Defeats the purpose of watching the movie. Paying for half products seems to be the norm nowadays and netflix is no different

Lodged a complaint with Netflix to seek a refund. Netflix have no formal complaints process, so I had no reference number. Every time I contacted Netflix I had to explain everything again and was given different answers. It became impossible to follow up on my complaint and Netflix have not contacted me, so lodging a complaint with Telecommunicaitons Ombudsman.

Good range of movies and shows, a bit slow bringing on new movies and shows and push meaningless wrestling and boxing ‘events’ and mobile games a lot. Worst part is the increases in prices that have been followed worsening products - monthly download limits, repeated problems being blocked for using a VPN (and when we proved that we weren’t, it… Read more

was then the ISP’s fault and they didn’t even pretend to be interested in fixing it, saying that the ISP had to contact them via their generic help chat), lots of glitches in movies, poor and inaccurate subtitles and even a limit on how often you can watch some shows. The amount of advertising has become absurd, 3 to 5 at the start of a show or movie and randomly appearing throughout the streaming and no option to fast forward even part way through the ad. Given the amount of cookies, you’d think the ads would have some level of customisation but it’s become like free to air TV.
