2. Netflix How To Cancel Account: FAQ

Let me answer some of the common questions you might have when you go to cancel your netflix account.

If you have any other questions feel free to drop them in the comments section below and I’ll definitely try to answer them.

2.1 Can I cancel my account from the Netflix mobile app ?

Technically yes, but it will take you to the web version of netflix.com regardless. So I suggest you use your mobile browser and go to netflix.com > Sign in > Deactivate your Netflix account.

2.2 Can I still watch Netflix shows after cancelling my account?

Yes, you can but only until the end of the month or as long as your current subscription lasts. For eg, you have a subscription that will end 20th of this month, if you cancel your Netflix subscription before the 20th, you can still watch all of your Netflix show until the 20th of that month.

This protects you from getting charged just in case you forget to cancel your subscription before the next subscription cycle.

No, unless it’s a different user you cannot use the same details to sign up for Netflix’s trial subscription again. You can read more about it here.
