For more information, see how to disconnect or downgrade Xfinity service with Netflix.
What happens to my Netflix account if I move?
Your Netflix subscription relationship is with Netflix directly, even if you signed up through Xfinity X1. Because of this, a move will not impact your subscription unless you are billed by Comcast, in which case, you will need to update your method of payment for Netflix.
Note: You'll need to sign in to Netflix again once you activate the boxes at your new address. If you move and no longer have Xfinity services, you will no longer be billed by Comcast and must update your payment method for Netflix or risk losing your Netflix Service.
If you have a previous, valid method of payment (credit or debit card, for example) on file with Netflix, Netflix will charge your previous method of payment. Contact Netflix to cancel your Netflix account after changing your service package with Comcast.

If you accidentally connect the wrong Netflix account to your Xfinity package, please sign out of the Netflix app on X1 and please contact us.
How does Netflix affect internet data usage?
Video in the Netflix app on Xfinity X1 is streamed over the internet. For this reason, usage of the Netflix app on X1 and all other programming and content from the internet on X1, as well as, the internet apps on X1 are subject to Xfinity Internet data usage policies.
To determine what amount of usage you can expect for a given hour of streaming, Netflix provides estimates on its website. Netflix estimates about 1 GB of data per hour for each stream of standard definition video, and up to 3 GB per hour for each stream of HD video.
Will my Netflix user settings carry over to X1 or Flex?
Yes. Existing Netflix customers who use their Netflix login information when logging in through the Netflix app on X1 or Flex will see their current Netflix settings.
Why is Netflix programming displaying in letterbox?
If you signed up for a Netflix standard definition (SD) package, the Netflix content will appear in SD in the letterbox format, even if you are an Xfinity HD customer. In order to get rid of the letterbox view, you must change your Netflix subscription to a package that includes HD.
Unfortunately Trigger Warning is hardly likely to be regarded as their next gem; it's another bloated Netflix affair in desperate need of some tauter editing and better focus. But as a vehicle for Jessica Alba to make a reappearance after the best part of a decade since her last semi-mainstream release, The Mechanic: Resurrection, it's vaguely acceptable fare for trashy - preferably intoxicated - 90s action movie fans.
Parker is a Special Forces operative who returns home after tragedy strikes to take over her father's small-town bar, finding herself increasingly embroiled in a local conspiracy involving arms smuggling and corruption that leads all the way through the Sheriff's department and to the politicians that control the town. Struggling to find any kind of justice through the proper legal channels, Parker has to tool up to take down the bad guys.
Reportedly pitched as a blend of John Wick and Rambo: First Blood, and attracting Alba's return not only in front of the camera but as a producer, audiences would be better served watching this with much more reasonable expectations. Trigger Warning is the kind of watchable nonsense Dwayne Johnson was chucking out early into his breakthrough into movies, some two decades ago, with his Walking Tall remake, or Seagal was making almost a decade further back with Fire Down Below. And if you're in the mood for that kind of thing, it's not an unpleasant flick by any means, reminding of a bygone era and ticking at least some of the same boxes as Amazon's recent Roadhouse remake, making up for its comparative lack of standout fight sequences with the glorious silver lining that there's mercifully no sign of Conor McGregor here.
But even an old school action romp has to consider its audience in 2024, and, if it doesn't have the script or support to colour in the peripheries (this doesn't), then at least prioritise the action element, with Trigger Warning instead wearing that Netflix flab proudly around its mid-section, hardly getting the blood pumping with its military opening, and not really rising to the occasion until its final act. Even at only 105 minutes in length, it still feels at least 15 minutes too long, like there's a tighter 90 minute vehicle in here, less burdened by protracted scenes of exposition or posturing, and more propulsive in its delivery of mayhem (whatever the complaints levelled at Road House, Liman managed to make his 2 hour remake feel much punchier than this).
Alba, hardly the famed thespian, and never having really achieved the kind of headlining stardom she perhaps expected, is still a pretty solid choice for an action lead - especially when you consider some of Netflix's similar recent fare like Jennifer Lopez in Atlas (better in The Mother) and Gal Gadot (Heart of Stone), at least not playing it superhero style, taking all that Krav Maga she learnt for The Mechanic: Resurrection, and putting it into a number of nice, small, often knife-based confrontations. Her character's penned as having some kind of PTSD - hence the title - but none of that really translates to the final cut, leaving her struggling with precious little weight to the thanklessly flimsy role. Dressed like a cross between Seagal and golden era Roger Moore James Bond, she at least takes a fair amount of damage and, refreshingly, doesn't appear to be immune to it either. But the supporting cast are utterly forgettable, villains indiscernible, and the payoff unsatisfactory, making you wish for a film that was leaner, more focussed and certainly more in-line with what you might expect from celebrated Indonesian director Mouly Surya's English-language debut.
Ultimately even Alba's perhaps surprisingly valiant efforts can't quite save the film, which you've seen a hundred times before, almost always done better, but it does make you hope that perhaps she can use this to forge a late stage Neeson-style action career in harmless nonsense b-movies, preferably somewhat better than this.
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines "trigger warning" as "a statement cautioning that content may be disturbing or upsetting." Why Netflix borrowed the phrase for a revenge thriller where star Jessica Alba wields a knife as her weapon of choice 95 percent of the time is a bit puzzling, as it doesn't even make any sense from a pun perspective. (Last I checked, knives don't have triggers.) But, rest assured, there's nothing here that is disturbing or upsetting. Now, boring? Yes, sadly, Trigger Warning can do boring.
See, the good thing about the streaming era of movie production is that a whole bunch of low-to-mid-budget, B-action movies (a genre I'm partial to) end up getting made either by or for the streamers, and some of them end up being quite fun. (Extraction hive, rise up!) There's nothing better than cinematic action mayhem that's elevated by invention and gumption more so than production budget. (One of Alba's chief supporters, director Robert Rodriguez, who cast her in his films six times, used to know a lot about this.) The flip side to that coin, though, is that the ones that fail to capture that spark end up not serving much of a purpose other than getting thrown on the "disposable content" junk pile, maybe waiting for the Netflix viewer who fondly remembers tuning into that first season of Dark Angel to click play right before they start folding some laundry.
Which brings us back to Trigger Warning, a film that, on paper, you want to root for. It's from Thunder Road Films, the production house that gave us the John Wick franchise and blessed us with the excellent Monkey Man earlier this year. And it was directed by Indonesian filmmaker Mouly Surya (Marlina the Murderer in Four Acts), making her foray into a genre that could use more women directors. Unfortunately, the end result is the end result, and Trigger Warning will be lucky to compel viewers to make it to the end of that basket of underwear before they flip to something else, let alone re-establish Alba as a star who can carry action movies like, say, Charlize Theron has been doing for the last 10 years.
