Netflix going down the drain.

Okay, I'll say that this started happening after IMDB scrubbed their forum boards -- which I found very useful. The signal to noise ratio was pretty good, but I'm sure they dropped it so's to attract advertisement dollars. Like who wants to invest their money or give advanced information to a website that's likely to get trashed in there forums?

Now what's happening over at Netflix that I find upsetting? Films and television series that are not in English. Now I love asian films non dubbed with just Closed Captioning. And I understand that some people don't mind and that Netflix is trying to appeal to a global audience. But why do they keep it a secret until you try to watch it. I find it irritating and I'm finding more and more titles featured prominently on their front page that aren't in English.

Why can't they make a note in the mouseover info that it's dubbed or CC only and then what country it's from? Their even going as far as taking these foreign films and featuring them in their website Herald space .. the large marquee above the list of films? There's no account option to hide them and I've grown tired of it. I'll be cancelling netflix over this and their cozy deal with Obama.

Netflix charged two different credit cards for my account for an entire year (accounts payable didn't notice since we have about 25 different accounts) and when one card expired they turned off the service.

When I checked and found the double charges they would only refund the last charge and told me to take it up with my credit card company, they wouldn't even give me the email associated with the fraudulent charges on the other card.

It was about the time they hired Susan Rice so I told em at the time that I wasn't going to give them a new card because I wasn't happy with that and was considering canceling while the charges were recovered.

We provided the all statements for the legitimate charges to the credit card companies(5/3) fraud department and they didn't have to but they refunded every penny, THANK YOU and way to go 5/3.

We had both Amazon Prime and Netflix at the time and its more than sufficient for the little time we spend watching movies and now there is defiantly no way we're ever going back to Netflix.

The shark...

Netflix

they jumped it!

Are you going through Roku? I don’t have a TV. I watch on my large computer monitor and I select movies via their Internet website.

I do like science fiction. But then I grew up when astronauts were heroes.
