Effectively, up until now, Netflix could only be shared legally among people from the same household. So, your family or flatmates, for instance.
But if you’ve ever shared your Netflix password with someone else living outside your house, you’re not alone. This practice has become so common that Netflix used to overlook this fact and tolerate it graciously.
But now, this is not tollerated anymore, so there are specific rules for sharing Netflix with people living elswhere legally.
There are three types of Netflix accounts to choose from:
The Standard plan with ads costs £4.99 a month. You get unlimited access to Netflix movies and shows (except a few titles) in Full HD. This plan can be shared with 1 other person.
The Standard plan costs £10.99 a month. You get unlimited access to Netflix movies and shows in Full HD. Plus you can watch on up to two devices at one time.
The Premium plan costs £15.99 a month. You get unlimited access to Netflix movies and shows in Ultra HD and 4K Streaming. Plus you can stream on up to four devices simultaneously.
As stated above, it is legal for people having the same address to download the Netflix app and share the password with the account owner.
With its Standard and Premium memberships, subscribers are allowed to share account details with people, be they family members or flat-mates, in the same household.
The Standard plan allows you to share your account with 1 other person. The Premium plan allows you to share with 3 other people.
All you have to do is open Netflix on a browser or on the Netflix app, choose the Standard or Premium plan, and create multiple profiles, one for each family member, for instance. Each person will have their own profile that is totally customisable and access to a Netflix account.
With the new rules, the owner of the subscription will have to decide how many people not living under the same roof to share with. At that point, they will send an invitation to the Extra member who will then receive access to their own profile with a unique username and password.
Therefore, now there are three new options for sharing this streaming service outside your house:
Netflix Standard + 1 Extra:
At the cost of £15.98 a month (£10.99 + £4.99) you can add 1 Extra member that lives outside your house to share your Netflix subscription with all the benefits of a Standard plan;
Netflix Premium + 1 Extra:
At the cost of £20.98 a month (£15.99 + £4.99) you can add 1 Extra member that lives outside your house to share your subscription with all the benefits of a Premium plan;
Netflix Premium + 2 Extras:
At the cost of £25.97 a month (£15.99 + £4.99 + £4.99) you can add 2 Extras that live outside your house to share your subscription with all the benefits of a Premium plan.
It’s reassuring to know that Netflix sharing is now completely legal, but that doesn’t make it any easier to organise sharing costs.
If you’ve tried this before, you’ll know how complicated and tiring it is to manage a sharing group. There are those who always pay you late, those who promptly forget to do it and those who make excuses not to give you your money back. Let alone if you really don’t have anyone to share your account with.
