This may be old news, but a friend of mine just cancelled his Netflix subscription and he told me that when he tried to cancel, a screen popped up prior to the final cancellation that offered him a savings of $3 a month if he would agree to continue his subscription for another 6 months. If you do cancel during the next 6 months, you get charged back the $3 you saved.

Although I'm quite happy with the service and had no intention of quiting, I clicked on the cancellation button on the website and sure enough, I was offered a savings of $3 a month to stay with Netflix. $18 isn't huge savings, but works out to almost a free month after 6 months of service.

Is it clicking the Cancelation Confirmation button or just click cancel? I tried clicking cancel, and got nothing.

click the cancel confirmation button and it comes up on the next screen.

I didn't get anything either.

Ugh...well, now i've canceled my account. I didn't get this offer.

I wanted to give the new BlockBuster system a try, so now I have a reason to try it.

not everyone will get the savings..there was a post about this I read (someplace, not sure if it was here or not) how only certain members (depending on when you signed up/how long you are signed up) will get it ..alot of people were pissed they were cancelling their accounts and not getting discount, so it's not for everyone..

sorry. I thought after it went 2 for 2 that it work for everyone. I stick to reading and not posting from now on.

Hmm, how long has every been a subscriber before trying this?

Iv been with netflix for about 2 years. i dont want to try, but i dont mind if you guys do.

Just for the record, I did the cancellation trick and signed on for the 6 months lower price. I had some issues with Netflix and cancelled about 2 months later and they did not try to charge me for the full amount.

Any deals for returning customers? Tried Blockbuster and they are bad. Wal-Mart does not rent Un-Rated materials. Should have stuck with Netflix.
