What UK Netflix users are saying about the price increases
The Daily Mail has reported that users on X have been threatening to cancel their Netflix plans, as one person wrote: "Another £2 price increase from @Netflix… yeah time to cancel. They don’t bring out shows good enough anymore for that price."
"Sorry, but Netflix is not worth £19 a month," a second penned.
"My monthly subscription is now almost double what it was when I first signed up," a third commented.
"Back then, they had good first-run movies from various Hollywood studios. Now they produce their own mediocre content and we rarely watch it anymore. We are disconnecting this month, before the hike."
"Another £2 price increase from @Netflix... yeah time to cancel. They don't bring out shows good enough anymore for that price," someone else complained.
