Nov 5, 2019

Netflix is popular for many reasons. It hosts some of the best movies and TV shows on the planets. It is, however, perfectly fine if you no longer need your Netflix subscription. Do you wish to cancel your Netflix UK account? You can do it in a few simple steps.

Canceling Your Netflix

If you hope to cancel your subscription, you may use the app or web browser. Tap on your account at the top right of the page. Select the option 'Account.' You do not need to lose access to your account if you simply need to downgrade. You can contact the customer support team and ask for the help you need.

Tap on the option 'Finish Cancellation' to end your subscription. You will continue to access your account until your current billing period ends.

If you have a gift card or there is a promotional balance remaining in your account at the time of cancelation, you can continue to stream until the balance runs out. Your cancellation will be automatically effected.

Your profile, account details, favorite sows, and account details can be reinstated up to 10 months after canceling your subscription. You simply need to re-subscribe.

Canceling Your Netflix Free Trial

If you wish to cancel your monthly free trial and get a paid subscription, you can cancel it in the same way. If you forget to cancel your free trial subscription before it runs out, Netflix will automatically charge you for the next month. You will not receive any reminders or notification before you are charged for the next month's subscription. You should, therefore, set your own reminder if you do not wish to get a paid subscription.

Removing Your Netflix Profile

If you wish to delete a profile from your Netflix account, navigate to the account icon. You can find it at the top right corner of the app. Click on the option 'Manage Profiles.'

Your profile accounts will be displayed with a pencil symbol. Tap on the icon for the account you want to change. You can then edit the profile. You have the option of changing the profile name, icon image, and language. You can also find filters for mature content or delete the profile. If you want to delete your account profile, you will have to get rid of the entire account.

Deleting Your Netflix Viewing History

Click on the profile that you wish to delete from your viewing history. Click on the 'Account' icon and then tap on 'Account' on the drop-down menu.

Scroll down to the section 'My Profile' and then 'My Activity.' All the shows that you have been watching recently will appear there. Click on the 'Hide All' button and your viewing history will be removed. Note that once you complete the action, you cannot undo it. The deleted titles will not be used to make recommendations after 24 hours. If you click on them in the future, they will no longer be shown as 'watched.'

If you need help canceling your Netflix UK account, you should seek help from the customer support team. The best way to contact them is over the phone. You should be connected with a representative in an average of six minutes. The customer support team is available on the phone 24/7.

You may also get support for your Netflix UK account on Twitter. It is a good option if you do not need to cancel your account urgently. You may receive a reply at an average of four hours. Twitter conversations are public so you are likely to receive the help you need fast.
