How to Delete Netflix Account

Recently, Netflix has ceased to be the leader in streaming on demand, with companies such as Amazon Prime Video, HBO, Disney +, YouTube TV and many more emerging, offering similar or better services than Netflix.

For this or another reason, many people have decided to cancel their Netflix subscription or delete their account from that platform.

Canceling your Netflix subscription is relatively simple, but you should know that your subscription contract established that your data will remain on Netflix for 10 months until it is permanently deleted (this is in case you want to return to the service).

As of today, there is no method to delete your data instantly when canceling your subscription, if you contact the support directly from the “Help Center”, it is possible that the customer service will speed up the definitive cancellation of the Netflix account .

Netflix allows its users to cancel their plans at any time, and even if the expiration date of your plan has not yet arrived and you decide to cancel it sooner, you can continue using your subscription until you reach the final expiration date. Here are the steps to unsubscribe:

  1. Enter the link: https://netflix.com/CancelPlan
  2. to initiate unsubscription .
  3. Press the blue button ” Finish cancellation
  4. Your account will not be renewed after your current subscription expires.
  5. Another method to unsubscribe from the Netflix plan, just as simple, is to go to account and click on ” Cancel membership ” to cancel the plan.

Once your Netflix subscription plan is canceled , you must wait at least 10 months for the system to permanently delete your account. To expedite the process of completely deleting your account, you can contact privacy@netflix.com  and tell them to delete all your data upon receipt of the message. Said message, to request the definitive withdrawal of the account, could be something like the following example:

  • Subject of the message : «Delete account permanently when receiving this email»
  • Recipient of the message : « privacy@netflix.com »
  • Message content :
    Hello, my full name is XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX and my email is XXXX@XXXXX.com. I request the deletion of my Netflix account, including my playing history and data linked to my account. I am aware that I will lose my favorites, my history, my user profiles and other information related to my account.
