I am new to the paypal. I am having problem how to link my bank account to netflix as they required credit card or debit card which it is usa but i am from canada so how that work when i click on netflix and need put paypal but they still want credit card or debit so how that work so can you explain how?
It sounds like you need to link your bank account to your PayPal account and then set up your Netflix account. You can add your bank account by logging into your PayPal account, click on profile, click Bank Accounts under Financial Information (If you do not see this step, Follow the instructions below), click Add, enter requested information and then click Continue, review the information and click Add Bank Account.
How about the fact that paypal seems to keep not fixing my account when i had mine linked to pay through my bank account all was fine till this month then all of a sudden it changes to my credit card i did nothing to change it and you guys at paypal blamed it on me when i did nothing to change it and its still not fixed yet even though you guys keep saying it is.
I have already linked my bank account to Paypal and it is verified. Everytime I try to set up the free trial with Netflix it asks for my Credit Card or Debit card info. I don't have a credit card linked to my Paypal account. My nephew has his Netflix fees coming out of his bank account and I want to do the same. I just can't get it to ask me to set it up using my bank account instead of a credit card.
I signed up for netflix using my paypal account however it keeps asking me for a crdit card. I dont have one because I only use debit and I cant afford any more debt. lol. 8 bucks a month is affordable. why doesnt netflix add a call my cellphone feature when setting this up and just get the account number and allow us to pay that way. I dont think a prepaid card would be wise considering it costs 4.99 to use once per transaction. if thats th case, netflix just wants to rip us off.... is that the case? I hate th fact paypal and netflix havent made a "partner" payment option whereas netflix is so big and everything.
how do i set up my debit. i have everything confirmed but still it asks me for credit card.......... if it doesnt work im afraid it will charge me in a month for a netflix account i cant even use.... my friend has hers set up and im just wondering why my debit wouldnt work ....
I have already linked 2 of my Bank Accounts to my Paypal profile & there is enough money to pay the monthly fees for my Netflix membership of $8/month. How will Netflix receive their $8 per. month--Will it be taken of the balance in my Paypal account or will it be charged to the card they are demanding I provide them with?
When I called "Kristi"/"Christy" over at Netflix she could not tell me how I would be charged for the monthly fee. She said all they receive is an email from Paypal saying that the money will be given to Netflix. This correspondence never explains how.
I do not want the monthly fee coming from my Debit card. I want the monthly fee to be taken out of the balance on my Paypal account. She told me my question is for the people at Paypal. So, Will it be taken of the monthly fee to maintain my Netflix account ($8 per month) be taken from my Paypal account or will it be charged to the Debit card they are demanding I provide them with?
First of all, I am sorry you are having so much trouble getting Netflix set up. I did go directly to the Netflix.com website and went through the sign-up/check-out flow and was able to select PayPal as a payment method. I was then directed to sign into my PayPal account. I do know that Netflix requires an instant payment which would require a credit card to be linked to your PayPal account. When you add a credit card to your PayPal account this does not mean you have to use the credit card as the funding source.
I am very glad to hear this. & yes, it is a complicated process but I think Netflix should be made aware of how payment will work. This seems to be a common question & I do not know why no one explains this to them.
We are not Netflix members, and I don't remember signing up for a membership, so I called my CC folks and retrieved a phone number associated with that transaction, then called up Netflix at that number.
I asked her what a Netflix transaction normally appears as on a member's CC statement, because "NETFLIX NONE" seemed like a strange phrase. I googled "NETFLIX NONE" and couldn't find anything relevant.
Never seen a specific city listed in ours - yours does seem weird. What did Netflix say when you told them what the transaction said? (I mean, did they say, ours wouldn't say that, or ours might say that?)
We had a similar thing with "Apple iTunes". I kept yelling (figuratively) at the kids for buying songs without asking and they swore up and down they didn't. Frankly, it was too much effort to try and figure out who was telling the truth for a few $.99 charges here and there. With the occasional $2.99 charge thrown in it added up to $92 over the course of 15 months or so. I finally got fed up and called the CC company and determined that it was fraud.
I have heard somewhere, that the identity thieves will usually start off with smaller amounts as stated above to make sure the info they have is valid and the card works. Eventually, they try to get larger amounts.
Definitely sounds fishy. I would do what you already planned. Everytime I have something weird happen with my card I cancel and order a new one with different number. Its worth the 30min of updating varias things with a new card number versus taking the chance of having a large number of bogus charges popping up.
Absolutely, shut down that cc # and get a new one. Best to keep the bank liable for all fraud charges and keep yourself in the clear. Low charges are a way to test a card and then WHAM, you get a $1000 phone bill from London. Happened to me.
I have a credit card that I only use for internet purchases. Today, I got the email/call from my bank telling me that they are sending me a new one. Seems someone tested it at a hotel in PA for $8.75 this morning. This is why I have a dedicated cc for use on-line.
That is exactly how it worked on our cc. We had a couple netflix charges, we called and had them taken off, but a month or two later we had a bill for a hotel in Spain. I would call and cancel ASAP. Within a year of that happening, our checking account was hacked. Someone was able to electronically cash a check from our account. That really sucked, so keep an eye on everything. Not sure if the 2 were connected, but I would keep a close eye on everything.
As it happens, my credit card was in fact compromised back in January; there were a few fraudulent charges, but AmEx reversed them and overnighted me a new card, and the whole matter was over and done with. the new credit card number is only about a month old.
My bill on my credit card statement reads "Netflix None" Los Gatos, and has for a long time. In Quicken it downloads as "Netflix" but under the memo each month is a series of numbers followed by the word "NONE." I have not noticed any odd charges on any of my accounts...I check them two or three times a week after having various cards compromised over the years. I dunno what the "NONE" means, but I don't think it's a problem.
Last February I gave my uncle a year's subscription to Netflix as a birthday present and I paid it in full. Today he called me and said his Netflix wouldn't work because there was a problem with the credit card on file. About a month ago I had my cc company reissue the card because of a suspected fraud issue. I found out today that you need a valid cc # on file with Netflix because they test it every month - even if the account is prepaid. That doesn't seem right that they can force you to do that but I'm sure at some point in signing up I clicked "accept" to three pages of terms and conditions.
Netflix spearheaded the streaming movement and changed at-home entertainment as we know it. For this reason, it remains one of the giants of the industry today. Scammers often impersonate well-known, trustworthy companies, making a household name like Netflix a prime target. With scam texts holding their spot atop the list of phone-scam threats, Netflix text scams were all but inevitable.
Phone scammers steal billions of dollars from Americans every year, leaving them with drained bank accounts and lingering psychological effects. However, there are ways to protect oneself and fight back. Keep reading to learn about Netflix text scams and how to avoid falling for fake messages.
Netflix text scams are a specific type of smishing attack (which is a type of phishing scam) whereby fraudsters try to get valuable personal information from their targets by disguising themselves as Netflix. They hunt for sensitive data like credit card numbers, email addresses, and login credentials they might use to hack into other accounts. Some scammers go directly for your money, while others sell your stolen data on the dark web.
One type of Netflix text scam claims your account has been put on hold, possibly due to declined payments or suspicious account activity. The text contains a link and instructs you to follow it to input your credentials, update your information, and regain access to the streaming service. Unfortunately, the link actually sends you to a fake website where scammers can steal your information. Alternatively, it may download malware onto your device.
Scammers like to center scams around problems with payment or billing information because it allows them to target your most sensitive data right away. Some Netflix text scams claim you must update your payment details because your card expired or was declined. As usual, they send a link that allegedly allows you to update your financial information and reactivate your account, but your financial details go right to the scammer.
