SIL is silently mooching off our Netflix streaming account

[Anonymous]

Maybe the kids are watching it without the mother knowing

I can't believe all these people are defending the mooching!

Because, in the grand scheme of things, this is not a big deal. Why get upset over something so trivial?

What would bother me more is that she would not only have access to shows but also my private account information like my bank information. I would change the password just because of that.

If it is not a big deal, then why doesn't the SIL just pay the 5,10 or 15 dollars herself?

Because what the SIL is doing is morally wrong. Your attitude is what's wrong with America these days.

Netflix is cheap. Your SIL can get it for herself, and you don't have to deal with weird things coming up in your suggestions!

Change the password and DON'T tell her. If OP uses the same password on anything else change that as well. Today I am removing my credit card from accounts that family members [college] been using .... new attitude is if you can't be my friend on facebook and twitter then I'm not funding your business. If NO access to college account for courses and grades then the cell gets removed from the plan.

No, she wouldn't. Netflix does not reveal your entire banking information. Stop being so paranoid.

Because it's no big deal. I wouldn't mind if family and/or a friend were using my Netflix account. As long as I can still access my movies when I want to, who cares? I don't sweat the small stuff...but then, I'm generally a happy and fulfilled person. YMMV.

I know on our account only two shows can be watched at a time. So if the kids are watching something and DH is watching something, I can't turn on another movie without getting an error message.

How old are your kids OP? We change passwords all the time because the older kids see us enter them.

I would just change it. It's annoying to have what someone else watched affect your queue and suggestions and technically it's not allowed by Netflix. If she has the gall to ask about it just say that it prompted you to change your password like it does every 3 months or something.

She is gutsy... change the password.

Viewing history does not affect your queue....only your suggestions.
