Netflix & Sky Stream

I'm in Ireland. I've Sky Stream ultimate with Netflix. I have logged into Netflix on the puck, but have been charged separately by Netflix. I've spoken with 

Netflix and they've directed me to see if the account is activated on the puck, and the message on the screen is "you'll need to upgrade your account with Sky". I've never received an email or text with an activation code or link (which I got previously when had Sky Q).

I've spoken with 5 different Sky reps to get the correct access on the puck. But they still cannot fix this. What do I need to do to activate Netflix on my sky stream and stop additional charge from Netflix?

Hi @PCHILL 

 

You don't need to activate anymore - signing in to Netflix should send a signal to netflix to switch billing to sky. See: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/how-to-activate-netflix

 

Are you definitely signed in with your Netflix account (i.e you don't have more than one?) - if so try going netflix > login > profile pic > get help > reload netflix and sign in again.

 

You should get a message telling you to link account etc. when viewing your account on netflix website it should say billed by sky.

 

If that doesn't work post back and we can escalate your post to sky.

Re: Netflix & Sky Stream

I'm definitely logged in correctly. And my Netflix account is showing that I'm still being charged by Netflix and not paid elsewhere. Please escalate this. Thanks
