Netflix

I have been using Tubi but their shows are kind of low end, yeah it is free so cannot complain too much, but I was thinking about maybe trying Netflix Canada no ad but the posts on here are sort of making me wonder.

First there is the account hacking and the agents not caring, then others saying they were watching a series and it just disappears.

I like watching real life shows like "the surgeons", "life and death in the ER" etc, real people in real day to day stuff. Not really into modern comedies as I dislike 6 year old kids acting like they are 40 and 40 year olds acting like they are 6.

I did try the free trial years and years ago, cancelled my sub after about 3 weeks.

Kicked my wife off the account as she attempted to watch a movie while in our home on her iPad.

After futzing with this for 30 minutes I got in queue to speak to a Netflix human. That took another 20 minutes. Then the temporary fix and bs excuses took another 20 minutes

Turns out we are part of a new customer hostile software trial. Because my wife uses a wifi attached mobile device, the new Netflix software presumes you are a non homeowner device and kicks you off even though you are on your homes wifi.

Apparently this gem can be temporarily worked around, but every 14 days it needs to be reset by the account email holder... That's me. I have a day job and I travel internationally. Netflix says that's not their problem.

I say they are not delivering service in compliance with their contract. Would a complaint to the ftc be worth my while?

This trial software I was told will be rolled out nationally shortly.

They just are not worth it. I wasted >1 hour on this bs today.
