Streaming video giant Netflix recently shocked the entertainment industry by reporting the loss of 200 subscribers in the first quarter of 000. The company had previously forecast a increase of 2,5 million subscribers for this period.
Why are so many users leaving Netflix? The decline in restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic is one of the main reasons – people previously limited to video streaming at home now have more entertainment options available such as eating out, attending concerts or watching movies in the cinema.
Inflation isn't helping Netflix either. The high cost of food and gas is forcing families to cut other expenses, and Netflix's price hike in early 2022 may have drawn attention to it as a potential budget cut.
In its letter to shareholders for the first quarter of 2022, the company mentioned the war in Ukraine as a major factor in the loss of subscribers. Netflix claims that the suspension of its service in Russia resulted in a net loss of 700 subscribers worldwide.
As competitors like Disney Plus, HBO Max, Amazon Prime, and Hulu grow, more users might consider canceling Netflix. If you're ready to leave Stranger Things, Bridgerton, Russian Doll, and Better Call Saul behind, read on to find out how to easily cancel your Netflix account.
