If you forget to cancel, you will be charged for another full billing period and Netflix will not refund it, making it easy to be billed unintentionally.
Consumer impact
Netflix retains broad rights to change subscription prices and content availability with just one month's notice, and payments are non-refundable including for unused periods. The class action waiver limits your ability to join group legal proceedings against Netflix, meaning disputes must generally be handled individually. You can cancel your membership at any time by visiting the 'Account' page on netflix.com before your next billing date to avoid being charged for the next cycle.
