Beware: Another Potential NetFlix Subscription Hike!
Attention Netflix Customers! Everybody pay attention to your email from over the next month or two. You're about to be granted a special deal for one month! Due to a semi-class action suit regarding misleading advertising, Netflix is paying YOU the consumer reparations to the tune of one free month of 4-Disc NetFlix service!
Sounds great, right?

Of course what you really have to pay close attention to is your following month's bill. You'll be charged the upgraded amount unless you take action otherwise!
So let's review. Two years ago they started up with the whole 3-discs, $10 deal. After a year of booming stocks and high usage, they figure out they need to charge extra for the basic deal. So they jacked it to $17.99. Then they started misleading consumers by deliberately delaying their mailings and reducing the effectiveness of the service, which causes this settlement. But this so-called settlement could be nothing more than a sly marketing scheme for folks like me who don't pay enough attention to their accounts.
