You couldn't be more wrong on this, T-Mobile can keep giving it customers what they promised them when they signed up. They'll just have to eat the cost or make a new deal with Netflix. The benefit equates to $15.49 of value for the current one, now it's going to equate to $6.99, how is that not a Downgrade? I to, will be looking at other carriers and plans.

This is unfortunate but I would probably do the same if I was T-Mobile. It will increase profit margins and force people to pay more to get back into the higher tier they were in with Netflix. Although I am not happy about it, it's actually good teamwork between the companies. Personally, I may downgrade my plan and even consider other carriers. In the end I will probably have to choose to either ditch Netflix completely in the very unlikely instance that it reduces plan cost or pay the difference to avoid ads. However, I doubt that T-Mobile will allow the option of my plan without the Netflix with ads for a reduced cost. Let's not pretend that anything is really free. There would be no agreement between T-Mobile and Netflix if it wasn't mutually beneficial and you pay for it even if it isn't shown as a line item.

I'm sorry but if people realized it's actually costing you more do you have T-Mobile on us for Netflix or even Paramount then they wouldn't use those benefits. Because I was grandfathered in under a plan that they no longer have anymore and it was cheaper for me to pay out of pocket for Paramount and Netflix and tell my kids wanted smart watches so then I had to upgrade my plan to the magenta which almost doubled my phone bill so now I'm paying almost $400 a month instead of $150 because of the change in the plans and the additional lines for the smart watches. But also with that we get unlimited data which is the best benefit that is if it would actually work all the time. And also every time I went into upgrade my phones they totally screwed up my account so bad it took me months to get it fixed so when I do decide to upgrade phones again I will be switching from T-Mobile and I've been with them for 13 years. I thought the whole thing would be coming 5G was things worth just get better and possibly a little cheaper but it's only gotten worse and more expensive.

I called in for the third time about this change and asked for a Supervisor to discuss it. I finally got through to a Supervisor, who looked up my account and she said that as I am on the Magenta Max 55+ with 3 lines, my Netflix service is grandfathered in and will not be changed to the one with ads. I asked her to confirm and she put me on hold, came back a couple minutes later and confirmed no change to my Netflix. As this is different from what I was told the last 2 times I called, I supposed I will see what happens over the next day or two when the change is taking place.

As you've probably noticed, Netflix has undergone a number of significant changes in the past year. The oldest and most widely-used streaming service around, in 2022, Netflix added a new Basic with Ads plans and upped the price of their Basic, Standard, and Premium plans considerably. Suffice to say, many folks are thinking about downgrading (or upgrading) their Netflix account in light of these changes, so we're here to tell you how to do it.

Netflix now offers four plans ranging from $6.99 all the way up to $19.99 per month. Different plans come with different perks, so you'll need to choose the pricing tier that fits best with your lifestyle and budget. Is video quality important to you? Do you need the ability to download content for offline viewing? It's important to ask yourself these questions before settling on a particular plan. To make things easier, we've also broken down the four options below.

Aside from Basic with Ads, every Netflix plan lets you download content for offline viewing and gives you full access to the Netflix streaming library. The best video quality can be found with the Premium plan, and that membership tier lets you watch on four different devices at the same time. Standard lets you watch on two devices simultaneously, while Basic and Basic with Ads only let you stream content on one device at a time.

Luckily, no matter what level of subscription you currently pay for, Netflix gives subscribers the option to downgrade or upgrade their plan at any time. The only time this isn't applicable is if your account is on hold. If you're in that situation, no plan changes can be made until you resolve the issue. Are you looking to make some changes to your streaming habits? This step-by-step guide will explain exactly how to upgrade or downgrade your existing account.

If you don't see the Change Plans option when you scroll down to the Plan Details section, you should contact Netflix. Otherwise, follow the steps on whichever device you use the streaming platform, and you should be ready to watch whatever you want.

However, things differ when it comes to downgrading your plan. Unlike upgrading, when you choose to downgrade your Netflix account, both the change in features and the lower price won't take effect until your next billing date. You will have access to the features included as part of your previous, higher plan until your next billing date.

Whether you're the kind of streamer who likes to binge the latest season of a series in a weekend or a casual viewer who prefers to Netflix and Chill, Netflix has a plan to fits your needs. And if those needs change over time, Netflix ensures that changing those plans is just a few clicks away.

Netflix offers four tiers of plans for streaming, which allow you to watch movie and TV content when and how you want. Switch between the Basic with Ads, Basic, Standard, and Premium levels to see what works best for your viewing preferences.

As I've no options for to upgrade or downgrade so as it's a fully flexible package it's seems rather odd especially as it can't be upgraded through Netflix themselves either as it's BT/EE TV that manages the account...

Absolutely I agree but it doesn't show the management box for netflix at all in my manage TV extras but i can manage everything else that's included with VIP/The WORKS as it's now called I'm hugely disappointed with the service from BT especially given the premium price we pay for the packages.

I've been asking about this since October and I had the TV package removed as it's an ongoing issue as was being told 2 old accounts had been closed off but they clearly hadn't been it's dreadful really is.

I suspect @roger4269 there is an issue with your account . (I can see options to manage Netflix on MYBT so the functionality to manage still seems there.) Who managed your account fixes in October , was it the TV experts or Mods on the community or the normal customer service team ?

I've paid good money from October for the TV package untill I said enough is enough but obviously not said everything was fixed so I gave it another go & placed the order and it to be honest I'm absolutely sick of it now as not had anything refunded for the TV service since day 1 either it's a shambles plus I had to fix my own broadband issues too after the BT open reach technician couldn't fix it....

I have had my Orbi setup for approximately six months and all has been working well. A few days ago I started to have an issue using Netflix with all of my devices. The issue is Netflix believes my devices are behind a VPN and none of them are. If I connect any of the devices to another network, Netflix does not have the issue. I reconnected my previous ASUS router as a test and Netflix works perfectly. I have tried factory resetting the Orbi and still have the same issue. I spoke with Netflix and they have confirmed that my symptoms are due to being behind a firewall. Prior to a few days ago everything was working perfectly including Netflix. I don't believe the issue is with my ISP as everything works correctly with my old router. Netflix is the only service I seem to have an issue with.
