With Netflix Standard with ads you can watch on up to two devices within a household at the same time. You can upgrade to Netflix Premium and watch on up to four devices in the same household at the same time for the discounted rate of $16, through your T-Mobile bill. Visit this page to upgrade now.
Log into My.T-mobile, select Account, and then select Manage add-ons. On the Manage data and add-ons page, add Netflix in the Services section. T-Mobile pays Netflix directly for you. For customers with an existing Netflix account, it may take one or two Netflix billing cycles for your billing to transfer to T-Mobile.
@Jenny349 My initial reaction was to "just say no." However, I then realized that Netflix memberships are geographically based. So a US membership won't be workable on servers in another country, or the content will be limited. I have friends in other countries that use a VPN so that they can access the US based content on both Amazon and Netflix.
I would not give out your personal password, but if many of your guests are from other countries far away, it may be worth it to purchase a separate guest membership for your property. On the scale of things, it's a small price to pay for happy/happier guests.
@Jenny349 Perhaps they tried and ran into the issues I mentioned. I think you can log in but you get a message that your content is limited. Something like that. I experienced that the last time I traveled outside the U.S., but it's been a while so I don't remember the exact message.
That's a good question, but when I look at the billing info when logged into my account, I can't see anywhere where sensitive info is displayed, only the email address that I am signed up with (password is hidden). Perhaps that's enough for someone who knows what they are doing to scam you, but it seems Netflix already has in place security measures.
I would be more worried about guests using services where there are additional fees, e.g. Amazon Prime or Apple TV+, where there is both included content and paid for content. Guests could run up quite the bill if they had access to your personal account. Even if you set up separate accounts for guests, I imagine they could still do this, unless there is a way to restrict that?
@Jenny349
The TV in the guest apartment is set up so they only need to click on Netflix app in the menu. I just have one account but two devices can use it at the same time. They don't enter a password its already entered. The option is "John" me and "Airbnb Guest" and in insructions I ask they click on the the Guest one, so they don't populate my selections with the kind of shows they like to watch. One guest with a kid just checked out and so now I see a bunch of cartoon shows which means mom clicked on my channel, but not a big deal. They don't have any passwords and can access streaming cable and NF just by clicking on the app option. You don't need a separate account for them at least here in the US. I have have had one guest sign into their account so need to check each time to make sure guest didn't sign out of my account and into theirs.
Nope. Nope. Nope. (not to mention remote access to your account after they leave). You can either pay for a Netflix account for the unit (last resort), or you can buy a Roku box and put it in guest mode so they can't log into your accounts.
We provide a DVD player with a ton of movies and television series.
We once had a guest ask for the cable password to buy a movie and offered to pay the cost. She was such a great guest we waived the fee ($3.95) and she didn't abuse the privilege during her stay. But for the most part, nope - we don't give out passwords. But I did stay at an Airbnb that had streaming services already activated and I may consider that for future (I'm dropping cable due to the expense), but I will child-lock any pay-per-view options if I do.
BTW - Roku TV bought Quibi and rebranded as Roku Originals (free), and there are plenty of other apps on Roku that can entertain guests with free streaming and movies without them needing your passwords.
do you offer access to Netflix in your listing? If so do you use your own account? Pay for another account? Make them sign in with THEIR account? I have a Netflix account myself and a ROKU I can hook up -- I just today got my first inquiry about Netflix in the unit. I'm wondering how others do it.
I have an additional device account, one for guests. If a guest doesn't have their own account, they can request me to set up access to ours as a guest viewer. Although after 2 years and many bookings, I have had only 2 requests for me to set them up. Most have their own account these days.
We have a guest account for Netflix and Hulu and an old iPhone with nothing else on it signed in for guests to cast to the tv, via google chrome-cast. Old fashioned but does the job at low cost. (We have no tv service.)
Hi Emilia, I'll just be starting to offer Netflix for my guest this coming month and thinking of the same set-up as yours (guest will have access to my account, but with a different user profile). I'd like to ask if you had any instances where your guests have messed with the other profiles on your Netflix account. If yes, what did you do? Or if not, what have you done to prevent this.
@Jose-Feliciano0, just this week I noticed the Grinch was watched on my specific Netflix profile and there were two young children staying in one of my Airbnbs at that time. It doesn't bother me and doesn't happen often. No one has ever messed with my settings or anything like that. I would say it is more frustrating when they log out of my account and into their own. I have to check every time I am turning over the space for a new guest that Netflix is correctly logged into the right account. I would never give my password to a guest so if they get logged out it would require me going over to the apartment to log them back in (luckily, no one has asked me to do that.)
Hi Jose, So I'm a little behind on this thread & I've been looking into all this stuff with Netflix & if you offer up your own account could the guest potentially mess with the other accounts on it. Anyway, their is a way you can lock your other profiles so they would only have access to the one you want them to have..
I have a "guest profile" for Netflix/Hulu/Amazon but it is still my account. The account requires a password to be modified in any way, including ordering movies that are not included in the subscription so there's no way guests could change or charge anything.
The only issue I had once was someone signed in on their own account, then messaged me claiming that someone was watching stuff on their account after they checked out. We didn't have any guests during the time they claimed this was happening and we had logged them out anyways, so I think they had left their account logged in elsewhere.
@Kelly1126 I have the Netflix account that allows for streaming on 4 devices at once. I just leave the account signed in. Same with Amazon: I'm actually not sure how many people can log in at once, but there has never been a conflict, maybe because Amazon Prime is pretty poor in Canada and there isn't much to watch. Some people choose to use their own account, but I do provide mine also so they can use it if they want.
We have Smart TVs and/or Roku's so that guests can access their own accounts. We remind them to sign out when they leave. We've also been using YouTubeTV instead of cable TV in some properties. So far, so good. The savings are great. Good luck with whatever you decide!
The culprits? My beloved family. My mother, father, brother, and cousin all have access to my account. But, while offering up my password to my entire family might have seemed like a benevolent gesture at the time, I'm starting to regret it deeply.
Here lies my predicament: how do I tell my beloved mother who brought me into the world that I need her to hit pause on Grace and Frankie for a hot sec so I can relax after a tiring day at the office? Do I kick off my dear cousin, an impecunious university student, when she's midway through a Riverdale binge?
