I was using a relatives Netflix who no longer has the package so I have now signed up to HD and have Netflix included. How do I change this on my sky Q and set up an new account as does not seem an option to log out.
Hi there @Will+Sussex You need to go to help section on the Netflix app and there is a sign out option there.
Once you have signed out you can reboot your Sky Box and go through the activation process.

I have the same issue as the person above. We've been using my daughter's account but now need to change this. I've tried logging out & rebooting my Sky Q box twice but my Netflix app still appears to be connected to my daughter's account, does it take some time?
No, it logs out but then if I go back into it, I'm logged in again. I had also lost access to Netflix but now it's back again, most bizarre. I'll get my daughter to check that she has access later! It's been ridiculous to sort out, I spoke to 2 different people at Sky today & neither could help!
I'm asking is because I recently acquired a slightly used Roku TV that had 1 previous owner. This owner neglected to sign out reset his TV to factory settings before giving it to me, so the TV is still tied to his Roku account. It would be nice to have the option to use this Roku Account that I created today to have the option to rent some non-free movies on the Roku Channel using my payment details. Any help more experienced Roku users could provide would be much appreciated!
In retrospect I probably should have asked my brother to help me do a factory reset while he was hooking it up and before I downloaded and signed in to my various streaming channels, but I was so excited to try it being a first time Smart TV User that it slipped my mind. Sometimes I can be such an Airhead! LOL! Any help that more experienced Roku Smart TV Users could Provide would be much Appreciated!
You can change the email address on your Roku account at That updates the account itself. The email address shown on your Roku device should update the next time it communicates with the Roku servers.
If you want to change the user account on a Roku device, you have to do a factory reset and configure it with the new account. All your existing installed channels will be removed and whatever channels attached to the new account will be installed. You will have to add any personal login credentials again for channels that require a login, such as Netflix.
How can I sign up for an Xfinity package with Netflix?
Xfinity packages with Netflix are only available in select markets at this time. To check availability, please visit xfinity.com.
How do I know if my Xfinity package includes Netflix?
If Netflix is included in your X1 package, it will be listed in the \"Bundled Services\" or the \"Regular monthly charges\" section of your bill.
I signed up for an Xfinity package that includes Netflix. How do I activate my Netflix account?
Launch the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box. Then, follow the prompts to either link your existing Netflix account to your Xfinity package or create a new Netflix account to be linked to your Xfinity package.
How do I find the Netflix app on my X1 TV Box?
You can either say \"Netflix\" into the Xfinity Voice Remote or you can go directly to the Netflix app by clicking on the Netflix tile found in the X1 apps menu.
I signed up for an Xfinity package that includes Netflix but never accessed the Netflix app on my X1 TV Box. Can I still create a new Netflix account or transfer an existing one as part of my package?
Yes. However, you must open the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box to activate the Netflix service included in your Xfinity package.
If you have an existing Netflix account and sign up for an Xfinity package with Netflix service, you'll continue to be charged separately for your Netflix account until you complete the activation process by using the Netflix app on your X1 TV Box.

What will happen to my Netflix account if I cancel my Xfinity service or change my Xfinity package?
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.
I accidentally linked the wrong Netflix account to my Xfinity package. What should I do?
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.
Last October, Netflix hiked prices for the second time in less than two years. The current monthly pricing for the Netflix Standard plan with ads is $6.99. Without ads, the Standard plan will run you $15.49 a month and the Premium plan will cost $22.99.
The company is cracking down on customers who share their accounts with people outside a single geographic household, introducing an $8 monthly charge in a long-threatened bid to retain customers and stanch a slowdown in subscription growth. Netflix uses location tracking to ensure subscribed users are logged in at a single home subscriber base, which is sure to test users already sensitive to growing threats to their online privacy.
Since the end of June, Netflix has blocked devices that attempt to access a Netflix account without paying the proper fees, according to TechRadar. Subscribers in a compliant household can keep using the service on the road, like on laptops or hotel TVs, without paying additional fees.
The Financial Times previously reported that Netflix had alerted internet provider partners in the UK that they should expect angry calls and support questions about the sharing price hike and location tracking features.
This move suggested that despite Netflix's best efforts, the company predicted a large number of subscribers would only detect the change when Netflix demanded an extra $8 for sharing the account outside their new "home" location.

Only people who live under the same roof can share accounts, the streaming company says. So you have two options: transfer your friends and family members mooching off your account to a new membership or share your Netflix account for an additional $8 monthly fee.
