I have X1 service and my own netflix account. I watch Netflix using my own account through the X1 Netflix Apps. Last week when I had a whole system refresh, when I go to Netflix Apps it automatically login with another user account (I don't know who she is but I can see her netflix registered email address and profiles). I acn watch netflix with her account but I want to use my own account. Comcast tried resetting the box, I reloaded the app and as soon as it comes up, it uses her account. I can force logout the account from the X1 DVR box (Arris AX103ANM) and login with my netflix account. But as soon as I logout, it switches to her account. Second problem is from the small companion tv boxes I use in other TVs, I cannot login to Netflix with my account. It piggybacks to the main DVR box and it thinks her account is the main account.
call during daytime east coast time 800-comcast and select billing. explain the problem to the agent and ask them to remove and reprovision your account then add the device back to your account. fixed?
I just got off with the customer service folks. They will try a full reset of my account at 2 am today. Will take approximately an hour and then I can check. They also scheduled a tech visit (although its restricted due to covid-19) between 1 to 3 pm later today. If the full reset works, then I can just cancel the appointment. I will post the results here.
Did you sign up for Netflix on AppleTV or via the website - I did so via the website, so possible you might need to contact Netflix if you signed up on AppleTV itself and can;t find a way to change it - was there an option when you signed up if this is the case?
OK So here it is. Since you have to sign up on the Apple TV for netflix to be billed through itunes you cannot just upgrade. You have to cancel your subscription. THEN wait till it runs out for the current month. THEN renew and it will let you upgrade. My sub does not end for another 10 days so I will come back then and let you know how it turns out...
Yes please let us know if it works - it will be interesting to see if you can sign up again on AppleTV with different user limits and that it doesn't simply re-enable the 2 user plan. Did you need to contact iTunes support or Netflix to find out?
You will need to contact the app developer for this, to ask if they have a plan that will accommodate your need. The developer is the appropriate resource for information about different plan types for customers. You can reach them at:
1. From the Home screen, tap App Store.
2. Tap Featured from the menu at the bottom.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap your Apple ID. If you don't see your Apple ID, tap Sign In and enter your information. Then tap your Apple ID.
4. Tap View Apple ID.
5. If prompted, enter your password and tap OK.
6. On the Account Settings screen, scroll down and tap Manage App Subscriptions.
7. Tap the subscription you want to manage, then choose a subscription category.
8. Use the options to manage your subscription. You can choose a different subscription period, or turn off Auto-Renewal.
Of course, if you want to allow more users now and don't mind paying for the overlap of what remains for the month, you can create another account now directly through Netflix with another email address. It should be possible to change back to the other email address once the iTunes subscription runs out, but I've never done that so I can't say for sure.
In a matter of minutes, you can update your address, not only with all your subscriptions, but every single service and company you use. Without even picking up the phone, you can inform everyone from your bank and the NHS to HMRC and the DVLA that your moving house.
You can access your Netflix account information, including your plan details and personal information, on the My Account page. Here, you can also change your preferences, such as your video playback settings.
Ideally, you should aim to complete your Netflix change of address at least 1 week prior to moving house. This way, it will give Netflix enough to time to fully update your information and ensure they have the correct address for you.
Changing your Netflix region is easy and free if you have access to a VPN that lets you pick and choose your server location. All it takes is a few clicks and you can enjoy your favorite Netflix shows while traveling. It's important to note that using a VPN may violate Netflix's terms and conditions, and you may receive a warning message if you try to watch Netflix with a VPN.
Are you out of the country right now and want to change your Netflix region immediately? With Avast SecureLine VPN you can choose from dozens of secure server locations across 5 continents, select your location of choice, bypass geo-blocks, and visit any website as if you were at home.
A VPN can unblock websites too, making it the perfect tool for students seeking specific educational content, as well as journalists, activists, whistleblowers, and anyone looking to avoid censorship. And remember, the physical distance between yourself and the VPN server location plays a role in connection speed, so selecting a server nearby can help speed up your VPN connection.
An important difference between Smart DNS and a VPN is that Smart DNS doesn't encrypt your traffic or hide your IP address. While Smart DNS will get the job done for changing your Netflix region, it does not offer the privacy and security benefits of a VPN.
Netflix claims that using a VPN to access Netflix will hide regional content and allow you to stream series and films that are only available globally. But there is some uncertainty around this, because the latest VPN protocols can mimic regular internet connections, which prevents them from being detected and blocked by governments, ISPs, or other authorities.
Netflix recommends that if you want to permanently change your Netflix region, you should cancel your account, wait until the end of your billing period, and then reactivate your account from your new home country.
The Netflix catalog varies from one country to another due to licensing and copyright restrictions, local broadcasting regulations, and company preferences. Determining the best Netflix catalog depends on your personal preferences.
Surprisingly, not all Netflix originals are available worldwide, despite the fact that Netflix owns the global rights for most of them. Sometimes this is because the film or series was created before Netflix was available in that region or because another company already has rights to the title for a specific region.
Download Avast SecureLine VPN to bypass geo-restricted content and enjoy lightning-quick, HD streaming on up to 10 devices at once. On top of complete access to your favorite shows, a VPN hides your location from snoops and encrypts all your internet traffic to keep your personal data secure. Install Avast SecureLine VPN today.
