I called it: Netflix wasn't ever serious about removing them, but now they look like they listen to users (otherwise why give such an odd VERY far away date like 1 September?). Victory truly for Netflix, to convince users they matter :)

They were pretty adamant that the decision was made and they weren't going to listen to complaints, but they did listen after all. Bravo to both the people who complained and Netflix for listening.

This is about how I feel. My husband burns through the movies, whereas I sit on them. So much for that... – princessbride42, on June 30, 2008 15:52

There are very few companies I actually like. Netflix just removed themselves from that list.

Summary: Do you still need a 2, 3, or 4 at a time subscription?

With a 3 person profile for my family it made sense for a 3 at a time subscription. Without profiles I expect to go to no more than a 2 at a time program, which means less convenience for me and less revenue for Netflix.

If enough subscribers reevaluate their subscriptions to a lower number based on the announced profile removal and let Netflix know that's the reason, perhaps their business logic will change.

I, too, would mourn the loss of profiles. It means that I would lose the 1 of 3 netflix that my husband has graciously allotted me. It means that I would never see movies of my preference. I wouldn't get my own netflix account. And by losing my profile, you'd actually have to work harder b/c my husband watches a much greater number of movies than I do.

I don't understand how it's in the customer's best interest to remove a feature that's obviously very useful because it's "cumbersome" without a better feature in its place. Eliminating profiles is like destroying the work of your customers without giving them the ability to save that work. Netflix stores a ton of information about each of its customers, from reviews to ratings, so why are they so quick to delete some of it?

Netflix, you need a better solution than "we've decided to terminate the profiles feature." That's just not good customer service.

me replied on June 24, 2008 14:30 to the problem "Netflix to break homes by eliminating profiles!" in Netflix:

I am extremely dissatisfied with this decision to remove account profiles. My wife and I have very different tastes in movies and the profile feature has allowed us to manage this. Up until now I have considered Netflix an innovative service that provides what customers need, but now I have to reconsider my loyalty to a company that takes away useful features with no good explanation.
