I just got a debit from them for R 146.69 :confused:

That's like what $12 some change.

I have the 4 screens option. Anyone can just verify the price for me quickly please?
 
I don't know what package I'm on actually, but my last charge was R97.45 on 8 May. If that helps :P

Maybe it's what they going to charge for the SA Netflix? :whistle:
 
Surely they'd announce an increase? Either via mail or as a banner on their site?
 
What is that plan supposed to cost? I can't open Netflix from work but found this:
Netflix’s family plan, which offers HD access for up to four screens at a time, remains unchanged and will continue to cost $11.99 per month, according to a Netflix spokesperson.

I think their price increase finally kicked in, because I am on the standard plan and paid R95 odd last month.

Thanks. Will double check when I get home. But it's definitely $12 now. Was just confused, I'm sure I was paying less. An e-mail would have been awesome. Either way. Still not expensive. I was just baffled :o

Increase Email was sent to us a year ago :) - searched my emails now mines was dated 09 May 2014 - so guess it kicked in now
 
Yeah, the fact that the Rand weakend from R11.90 this morning to 12.04 currently isn't exactly in our favour either...
 
No increase here:

Your plan price is guaranteed through at least 09 May 2016.

I've got a feeling he signed up after the increase which means he's been paying $11.99 per month for the top tier package all along.
