Will the free netflix subscription stay if I delete the account and make a new one?

I have a free Netflix account with my sky. However the Netflix account I have made has a misspelled email and therefore I cannot verify it and ultimately change it.

 

if I delete the Netflix account linked with my sky and make a new one,, will the new one still be free or will I have to pay for it this time?

@Jamie521  You shouldn't need to delete your netflix account, simply update the incorrect email details at netflix.com.

 

Deleting the account may well cause an issue.

Hi,

I can't update the email on the account because I haven't verified the current one, Netflix won't let me put a new one until I've "verified" the current misspelled one. Should I just  leave it as it is? I've been told that verifying my Netflix email isn't actually necessary.

Phone them. They might be able to fix it for you if they can verify your identity
