Surprisingly good!
December 22, 2015

I'm not easily pleased, but Netflix impressed me for the value I received for only $8/mo. That is or was their cheapest plan. When I lived alone it was a reliable TV companion. I don't give 5-star reviews.

I watched a few entire fascinating TV series. Movies were not as hi-Q for my taste, but great value, and Netflix thoroughly destroys Hulu and Crackle for commercial-free streaming video.

I signed up for Netflix and went with the plan that has 4K. So far I am not to impressed with their catalog but the service seems decent and haven't had any major issues. Hopefully they will expand it more so I can enjoy it with the family.

Great shows and service
December 17, 2015

Except for their occasional down-time involving maintenance that they don't alert users to, I have a good selection of the shows I enjoy though I hope they'll offer more selections where it concerns older films, such as hulu offers.

Movies/tv
December 16, 2015

Easy to use, great for the price point. However, movies and tv shows are all older but that is their selling point. Very very affordable monthly rate. They also send you suggestions for movies/tv shows due to what you have been watching previously. They pay attention to your trends. You are also able to access it through ipads, iphones. You can watch it at any location as long as you sign in and can save the spot that you were at previously.

Netflix - Almost Perfect
December 14, 2015

I have been using Netflix for about four years now. For three out of the four years I have used the DVD services where DVDs are mailed straight to your house. The DVDs came quickly, but some of them were scratched. I have no real complaints about the DVD services. I have used Netflix streaming for a year now. I believe that it should have a larger selection of movies and shows to choose from. You cannot stream nearly as many movies and shows that you can get from the DVD services. I also belive that more seasons should be available. It doesn't make sense to have the second season of a show, but not the first season. Overall Netflix is has been a good overall experience that makes it easier and cheaper to view movies from home.

I have been a Netflix customer for six months, and I enjoy the
Quality and variety of their offerings, but service is sketchy.
Sometimes I will be viewing a program and it will just quit and then a little circle comes up and begins going around and never gets past 25%. It could be an issue with my provider (Comcast), but it
Is very annoying.

Worth It
December 12, 2015

Cost Effective and way better than that paid for Cable. Cable prices are ridiculous and with their pricing, due to current economy prices, don't they show. How much they care which is None. Netflix is the way.

Billing issues
December 11, 2015

Charged my account twice a month before I caught it and would not reverse the charges, rep said it was my fault. I liked the shows they offered but cancelled due to bad customer service

In my free time I like to go and watch new and interesting shows and movies. I enjoy doing this on my favorite app, Netflix. Sometimes it is very hard to find good movies/shows on Netflix because a lot of them are old and irrelevant, or the movies that you do want to watch aren't on Netflix. For example, Netflix has a lot of Disney movies and Pixar movies but where are the classic movies that we grew up on? Where are "The Lion King" "Toy Story" "Finding Nemo"? Don't get me wrong, Netflix has some good movies but there should be more variety. When there are new movies that come out on DVD Netflix should be able to put them on there for us to watch as well. I think doing this it would make a lot of customers very happy and Netflix will even gain more customers.

Good
December 4, 2015

I love Netflix and has some main series that you might want to watch, although I dont think it is too good for movies... 9/10 movies you search and expect to be on there aren't! Even the most obvious ones. I think it needs a good update.

Movies are great but if they cost you money to view for limited times and cost 1GB of data per view it's actually cheaper to rent a dvd or get movies on demand for free with SBS on demand. Don't wait until you get your internet bill because you will have a heart attack! 1GB of data isn't enough for some movies. And 1GB of data on average prepaid costs $10-15. That one old movie for the price you can buy a copy ondvd for in stores. Incredibly expensive and misleading advertising. Nothing is free but Netflix is a joke.

Netflix isn't a great expense, so I think it's pretty decent considering the price, but very often I look for a film (obviously not super recent ones) on Netflix to find it isn't available... Many of the films on there are pretty rubbish. Perhaps better for series, like breaking bad, orange is the new black, etc.

Love Netflix
November 30, 2015

I don't have cable so I depend on Netflix. There are always great tv shows and movies to watch immediately. Keep your DVD queue filled and they send DVD's right away. Easy to return because the envelope that you receive the DVD in is also used to send it back at no cost to you.
