Netflix premium

Hi

 

I have a Netflix premium account but not through Sky. 

 

Anyone know how to transfer my account so that I pay sky directly instead of Netflix?

I can save £4 a month by doing this.

 

I know that you can get netflix with Ultimate package, but that is only the basic netflix.

 

Any ideas how to make it premium?

 

Regards

@reddude Hiya with Netflix it depends on what packages you have with Sky, as to how many screens and what resolution you get Netflix in see below



Netflix Basic              Sky Ultimate TV Pack (1 screen) 

Netflix Standard     Sky  Ultimate TV Pack and Sky HD pack (2 Screens)

Netflix Premium      Sky Ultimate TV Pack and Sky HD pack plus Sky UHD Pack  (4 Screens)


I may be a Sky Superuser but I am still just a Sky customer

Sky Q 2 TB (Silver)Box, 2 Mini boxes since June 2016, all connected by wifi
Sky Broadband Hub/SR203, Sky Ultrafast broadband
Ultimate on Demand, Q Experience/UHD, Sky Sports, Sky Cinema
LG 49SJ 810 V UHD TV, Google Pixel 7 Pro mobile

@reddude 

 

As @Laing1 indicates, on Q it's the Sky HD add-on which 'upgrades' bundled Netflix Basic to Standard, and then the Sky UHD add-on which upgrades Standard to Premium.

 

Unfortunately this does mean that unless you want to have those add-ons for Sky content, the Netflix saving is more than wiped out by the added Sky cost.

 

Also note that the 'Extra Members' feature for non-household use is not included in bundled Netflix.

Re: Netflix premium

Hi

 

Thanks for response.

OK I think I understand. 

So I already have Sky HD and UHD, so essentially if I add netflix to my Sky package I should get Netflix premium?
