I’m looking into this a bit further, and it seems to be so idiotic if i understand this right… because their T&C didn’t say they may raise prices due to inflation, or because of increased production costs, or adding new features, it was voided. They just said they could increase prices, but a reason in the T&C was required.
Edit: And they’ve now since added a reason in the T&C because of this.
Edit2: Also because there was no clear way to cancel on the spot when they saw the prompt? This part seems more reasonable.
But they did inform?

Edit2 is the more correct one.
As per German law, a contract or a renewal of a contract requires both parties to consent.
Since Netflix only offered a “Yes I accept” button and no “I decline, please cancel my subscription” one, the Price Hike is illegal and thus void.
Do you think they would have let the no reason in the T&C pass (edit with a warning) had they offered the i decline cancel button?
