      Hi Andrew!

      Thanks for leaving a comment on our page.

      I’m afraid finder cannot cancel your account for you. To cancel your Netflix account, simply follow the steps provided above.

      Hope this clarifies!

      Hi Kathlyn,

      Thanks for leaving a question on finder.

      Please note that finder is a financial comparison and information website that helps consumers make better decisions. We do not represent any of the providers we feature on our website. Unfortunately, I can’t say exactly what is causing this. It would be best to contact Netflix customer service directly to see what could be causing this.

      Cheers,
      Joel

      Hello Robert,

      Thank you for your comment.

      The Error Code 150 means System trace information was not specified in your CONFIG.SYS file or tracing is disallowed. [ERROR_SYSTEM_TRACE (0x96)]. One of the possibilities also is that the device is not compatible or your internet date is not enough. Please check the steps below on how to watch Netflix on TV:

      1. Determine if your TV is a Smart TV.
      2. Connect your Smart TV to your home network.
      3. Open your Smart TV apps
      4. Select the Netflix app
      5. Log in with your Netflix account.
      6. Browse using your remote.

      You may also want to get in touch with Netflix directly so they can check this for you.I hope this helps.

      Regards,
      Jhezelyn

    I have canceled my subscription to Netflix months ago but Netflix is still taking money from my account. $17.99 a month, my original amount was $10 a month. Could you please fix this for me as I don’t want to get a new credit card. Thank you.

      Hi Paul,

      Thanks for reaching out to us. Please note that we are not affiliated with Netflix or any company we feature on our site and so we can only offer you general advice.

      If you have already canceled your account by selecting ‘Cancel Membership’ from your ‘My Account’ and clicked on ‘Finish Cancellation’ as instructed from this page, your Netflix subscription should have ended and no further charges.

      If Netflix is still charging you and you’re still subscribed, please try it again or contact Netflix support by visiting Netflix official site.

      Best regards,
      Rench
