Price hikes, password sharing, Crackdown endless scrolling
through stuff. You don't want to watch sound familiar if you're
feeling that Netflix fatigue, you're not alone.
Is it time for a break?
Let's talk about
So here's the message, you can take a break from Netflix.
It doesn't have to be forever.
Get some of those other platforms a chance and Netflix will
be there waiting when you're ready to come back.
Now, let's talk about how to actually take that break.
You've got a couple of options and we'll walk through,
but it's easier than you think.
First up pausing, this is a relatively new feature and it's
perfect. If you just need a short breather,
If you pause your membership, he'll only last for one month
and then it automatically restarts.
You can extend it a little but it's not meant for a long-term.
I hate us.
Here's how to do it.
Open Netflix on the web.
This works best on a computer, click your profile icon on the
top right corner and then go to account.
You see that manage membership button right there,
near the top, click it.
On the bottom of the next page,
you'll see cancel membership in red.
Click that on the next page, you'll see three options.
The first is the pause for one month,
option-click of that.
And you're done your subscription will pause starting on your
next billing date.
Netflix will send you a reminder a week before your paws ends
you'll have the option to pause for another month.
Just keep in mind, you can only pause for up to three months
total. Of course, Netflix makes it super easy to unpause,
whenever you want just log-in and you'll see Big Friendly
process asking if you're ready to come back,
if you click unpause now, you'll be charged in immediately
for the next month, and your billing cycle will adjust accordingly.
Now, what if you want a longer break,
or you're ready to say goodbye to Netflix for good?
That's where cancellation comes in.
The process is almost identical to pausing go to Netflix on
the web like your profile icon,
then account click that manage membership button again.
This time you're going to click the last of the three options,
the cancel button, don't worry, you'll have a chance to confirm
your decision.
And that's it.
You successfully cancel your Netflix subscription but here's
the thing, your date has not gone yet your viewing history
profiles and recommendations will be saved for 10 months.
So if you decide to re-subscribe it in that time,
it will be like you never left.
So if you're feeling overwhelmed burned out or just plain bored
with Netflix, don't be afraid to take a break,
whether you pause or cancelled, it's your choice.
Explore other streaming options, read a book or just enjoy
the extra cash in your pocket.
You might be surprised how good it feels to step away for a while.
