This test certainly fits that bill as it’s not fully banning users outside the owner’s home from using it but introducing enough resistance that might make some sign up for their own plan. So we’re looking at the situation (and look into) consumer friendly ways to push on the edges.” However, noted by The Streamable, Netflix’s Chief Product Officer Greg Peters has publicly talked about password sharing as far back as 2019 saying “We continue to monitor it. The main way Netflix has handled the issue is limiting simultaneous streaming based on the plan, with the most expensive premium plan allowing streaming on 4 devices at a time. The service has been notably lax on password sharing with some surveys showing 50% of Netflix users do this. It appears the test is limited to TV devices for now. The Streamable heard back from Netflix on the change who said “This test is designed to help ensure that people using Netflix accounts are authorized to do so.” However, the phrasing of the pop-up feels more pointed. You will need two credit card for this process as Netflix deletes. Delete your account and then create a new account with new credit card details.

The message includes an option to “Join Free for 30 Days,” or if you’re the owner, verify the account with a 2FA code via email or text, or “Verify Later.” While it looks like it would be possible to keep using the same account, it’s unclear how often Netflix might ask for the verification for those that pick the “Verify Later” option. Another method to get free Netflix accounts is creating an account with your credit card details and then use the free trial for one month. If you don’t live with the owner of this account, you need your own account to keep watching.
The move comes in what the company calls a test that tells password borrowers to sign up for their own accounts without fully blocking them from continuing to use the currently shared one.įirst spotted by The Streamable, Netflix users this week who borrow a password from family or a friend started noticing an alert about not living with the account owner.
Well, it was bound to happen at some point – Netflix has started to crack down on users sharing passwords.
