This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I joined netflix on a 2 week "free" trial period. Before the two weeks were up I returned all dvd's and cancelled my membership online (Only because there was no phone number on the site to talk to a person to confirm that I would not be charged) I received confirmation that my membership was cancelled. I felt ok thinking there would be no charge to my credit card. After cancelling I had an emergancy for which I almost maxed my credit card out but I was still under my limit, I tell you this only to lead into the fact that on the very day that I cancelled the membership (3 days before it expired) netflix charged me $19.20 that I was not aware of or expecting. Since I did not know I was chareged for my "free" trial and used my credit card it sent me over the limit and I was charged another $29.00 for being over the limit. Netflix should not have charged me before my membership was up nor should they have charged me after cancelling my membership. Unable to find a phone number I emailed their customer service and am still waiting on a reply on how and when they are going to refund my money. I dont think its fair for them to make me wait on a response to a refund when they couldn't wait until the trial was up before they charged me. I would like people to know that a "two week free trial" ended up costing me $48.20. Beware if there is no way of contacting customer service.

You have removed my favourite tv show ‘strong girl bong soon' from Netflix and it was the only place I could watch it. I'm not sure why but please correct your mistake. Thank you.

I've just upgraded my Netflix account to allow for two or more users and now I am unable to upload or play anything. No one else is using it at the time but I paid for more than one screen so that when I visit my parents I can view it as well.

Hi there, I don't seem to be able to download movies, even ones that come up as downloadable. Also how do I stop them from expiring? I want to use them while I am sailing and don't watch them straight away. I have spent hours downloading movies so I can watch them at sea on my tablet only to find them expired. How do I prevent this happening?

Not received any subscription alert after free trial. While I have selected for free view period, it was informed to me that before the free period 3 days before I will be notified.

But no notifications received and paid subscription started by deduction from my credit card the subscription monthly charges

Strong BLACK leads?! REALLY?! How about Strong WHITE leads? How would THAT go over. Your company is promoting rascism. SHAME ON YOU! If you want to be a programming company for everyone, how about not dividing your customers with this nonsense? You have NO BUSINESS putting something like this up. RACE BAITERS!

Can you guys return back the 'not interested' button, some of the movie or series that I do not like on recommendations and I cannot dislike it. I really like that design of the site and give so many conveniences thank you!

My trial for one month ends on 2nd December 2019 and I've cancelled it on 4th December 2019. Why do I still have to pay even though I already cancelled it? When I checked on my bill. The amount was more than what I should pay.

I am disgusted that you would portray Jesus as being gay! That is a direct slam against Christianity! You people should be ashamed! Take this defamation of character off or I will cancel my subscription! I know of some that already have. I am giving you the chance to do the right thing. DO IT!

I am disgusted and highly offended that you would air a show called "gay Jesus". I don't see any other shows on Netflix that mock other religions. Please respect Christians and their beliefs. We don't have to all agree, but we could be respectful. Shame on you.

The First Temptation of Christ is absolutely offensive to people of faith - it must be removed from Netflix. I am seriously considering cancelling my subscription to Netflix. This type of show is sick and mocks all that is good in the world created by our Savior Jesus Christ. Unbelievable that you let this show on your network.

I started watching "Don't **** with Cats: An Internet Killer" on 12/19/2019 and it was so disturbing I had to file a complaint about it. This type of content should be BANNED from Netflix. You would have to be one sick person to watch that crap. Thinking of dropping my netflix subscription.

You have crossed the line again Obviously, you don't care how badly you mock God and His son Jesus. May God have mercy on all of you! There are millions of true Christians who are sickened by this display of heresy. In spite of your actions, we pray that your eyes will be opened and that you ask God for forgiveness. We are praying for you.

What an AWFUL thing to air. Depicting Jesus as gay? This is ridiculous and highly offensive. Pull this show immediately. Airing it to a nation that has "In God we trust" on the money? That was the dumbest thing. Terrible awful move. This is disgusting.

your programs are killin it. but graphics would be helped by larger
and darker print. have to move too close to tv to read descriptions
of shows. old eyes need help and a lot of us are subscribing to your
network. if this reaches the wrong department please get it in the
proper hands. thanks.

I can't believe that you would allow such a film on your platform. It is highly offensive to about a third of the population of the planet. You will regret this behaviour, in both this life and the next.

I'm writing to complain about the show glorifying the killing of cats. Based loosely on true events its content is distressing. I'm a new subscriber, if this is the best you can do I may just stop my subscription. There are too many idiots out there that woul9 think twice about copying the details. PLEASE REMOVE THIS VILE OFFENSIVE PROGRAM.

I want to file complaint over Carole & Tuseday Netflix series. I was looking forward to watch this new anime series that would finally have an African American as a main character and to witness African American voice actress to finally play the part. But sadly I was very disappointed with the industry here.

I was watching with my family the movie called spy in Netflix and suddenly an erected penis show up in the movie. It was disgusting and disturbing for my whole family, we had to stop watching. The movie specifications didn't mention that there are porn contents, such as the image of an erected penis. We can't call those images nudity but porn.

I have many many movies saved and as well as in my queue but it seems to take forever for them to be mailed out. Sometimes I just give up and buy the movie from Red Box instead.

Your movies are all Woke movies and suck. The need to have blacks in every movie or show is ridiculous even when they don't fit the movie or character.

Yet you don't have an excellent series like Yellowstone the best show on cable. You absolutely suck.
