I already have free premium Netflix through EE

My sky package comes with a basic Netflix subscription but I already a premium subscription through my mobile EE account for free which I want to link to my sky stream Netflix but it seems I am unable to and if I like I my details I will just be downgraded to the basic account that sky offers me.   Is there a way to remove Netflix from my sky account so I can just log in with my email details and add my already owned premium account.

Not on Glass or Stream, because 'Sky Signature' isn't available on that platform.  Both Ultimate TV and Essential TV have Netflix Standard with Adverts bundled.


One suggested workaround may be to create what's effectively a dummy Netflix account using a different email address and initially log into the Netflix app on Stream with that: this links Sky billing to that account for Standard with Adverts.  Then log-out and log-in with your Premium credentials.

 

Not guaranteed, I'm afraid.

Thank you. I will give that a try otherwise I'll just have to keep switching to my Firestick when I want to watch Netflix.

Hi, just letting you know that what you suggested worked, I created an account just for the free basic  Netflix account which is billed by sky then logged out and back in with my premium account and it's all good.  Thank you.
