Frequently asked questions

Can I get a refund from Netflix after cancelling?
It depends on the contract, when the service began and why you are cancelling. UK cooling-off rights can apply to some online contracts, but exceptions exist once digital content or services begin with consent. US rules vary by state and provider. Australian consumer guarantees may apply where a service is not delivered as promised. Check Netflix's terms and act promptly.
What if Netflix keeps charging me after I cancel?
Ask your bank about a chargeback promptly and include a screenshot of your cancellation confirmation. Timescales and eligibility vary by provider. Our personalised letter can include relevant UK, US or Australian consumer-law wording where applicable.
Will I lose access immediately?
Netflix's current terms determine when access ends. Check the cancellation confirmation for the effective date and keep a copy for your records.
What if I'm in Australia?
Australian Consumer Law may provide remedies where a service fails a consumer guarantee. For telecoms, unresolved disputes may be eligible for the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman. For other services, your state or territory consumer agency can explain available routes.
