No, your just over estimating how much influence Tmobile has over Netflix. I can care less since I don't have Netflix on Us.

The original terms are for 2 screens and people ruined it by sharing passwords till Netflix had to do something.

Same problem here. We had two family users (different houses, but family…that address is meaningless and just an excuse to charge people more) on one account for years. Just two.

When we switched to T mobile, we lost that deal and now we find we can’t get the EXACT SAME DEAL OFFERED TO ALL NETFLIX USERS because we’re going through T-mobile? This is not equitable. There is no good reason going through T mobile should disqualify users for many, many years from getting offers that all other users have access - for the same $8 fee.  

So, now we're penalized for using T-mobile and it will cost us more no matter how (IF) we go back to Netflix. Not cool that this was never mentioned at the time.  

Imagine if either company actually cared about its customers and tried to give them what they need in exchange for decade+ of loyalty and that giant chunk of monthly money?

 

I get that N can't deal with endless password sharing. No prob.  (We never did that.) But there are less extreme ways to deal with it (which are also less profitable). For example, why won't Netflix simply allow two family users, regardless of household? Because profit matters more than everything, especially customers. 

The system is supposed to work for the humans. Not vice versa. And people, please stop defending mega corporations like they're your pals. They and their billions will be fine. Promise. 

So disappointed in both Netflix and T Mobile. Is it really worth $8 to destroy customer loyalty? Not to mention how they treat writers. 

Learning to watch less TV is a good thing, anyway.

You nailed this.  It's ridiculous.  I want to give Netflix $16 more per month (2 kids at college), I can't.  They should tell T-Mobile to fix this as they are leaving money on the table.  Does anyone at Tmobile monitor this community?  Please let us know we are being heard.

Same here, my daughter's are in school away from home and I am disappointed as family unit were being asked to pay more for something we shouldn't have to. We never shared our account to outside members, we have 6 kids and it's a struggle just to keep everything else straightened out without this stupid problem to add to our stress.
