Change Netflix account on Sky Q

Hi there,

 

I got Sky Q installed a couple of days ago but could not get it to recognise my Netflix account which was already setup. I entered a generic email address and password just to get it working, which it did.

 

I am now trying to change it to the correct Netflix account - I go into the Netflix app and sign out - when I then sign into the Netflix app with the correct details, Q tells me that there is already a Netflix account linked and reverts back to the original one.

 

Please help.

Thank you. So it appears in the FAQs once an account is attached it cannot be undone.

@Chestermunch I think if you link the wrong account you need to contact netflix direct

Did you manage to get them to do that then?

Thanks for the reply but I just couldn't get through to customer service. It was easier to leave the wrong nextflix account attached and cancel the payment to them.
