• You want to rejoin?
• You want to restart your Netflix account?

If you cancel your Netflix subscription, your account will be closed immediately and you won’t be charged for your membership unless you restart your account. If you cancel with time left in your billing period, they will let you stream until the account cancels automatically.

You are able to rejoin Netflix if you want, just restart your Netflix account from your Account page.

If you want to restart your Netflix account, you can do so by signing in to Netflix and selecting Restart Your Membership from any profile (except a Kids profile).

In case you need to reset your password, you will be redirected to your Account page where you will select Add streaming plan, and then Restart Your Membership.

If your account is inactive, you’ll be asked to restart your membership once you sign in to Netflix. Your billing date will change to the date you restart your membership. If your account is active, you can retain your status by selecting the Restart Your Membership link on your Account page. Your billing date will not change.

You are able to change your billing day as well. You can choose a day that works for you.

This option is only available if you pay with a debit or credit card or PayPal (where applicable). You cannot change your billing date during a free period, on the current billing date, or if your account is on hold.
