In fact, much of this information on this page is superfluous because this Netflix phone number is a direct line to a human being. The line is well-staffed and you should anticipate a very short wait on hold or none whatsoever, as long as you are calling during business hours.
We don't know of any phone menus you would encounter when calling either.
What are the hours and when should I call?
Netflix operates the call center for this 800-585-8131 phone number 24 hours, 7 days.The short answer is that you should call on a Wednesday.This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 127,802 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
Call when they- and you- are open
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, you can also schedule the call with Netflix at a time when they are open and when it works for you. We will confirm you are ready before placing the call, just in case. That means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Netflix phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Netflix staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call Netflix is Sunday.The most busy day to call is Friday, which averages 63% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 127,802 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Wednesday.The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Friday, which is 64% longer than the minimum.As you can see, there is more fluctuation in hold time over the course of the week than there is in call volume.
In summation, the best day to call Netflix is Wednesday.It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that Netflix staffs up on Wednesday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
Once again, please put this information in perspective because this phone number has no phone menu or long waits. It generally gets picked up right away if calling during their opening hours. If there is any way, it will typically be very short.
The majority of people call Netflix to resolve issues relating to accessing accounts, consulting tech support for using their app/devices and changing/canceling subscription plans. Upon calling Netflix, you'll stay on the line for English or press 5 for Spanish.
If you're already a Netflix customer, the automated recording directs you to log in online at their website using your account info, and then enter into the phone's keypad a six-digit service code found at the bottom of the webpage. This method provides faster service over the phone.
Since I don't have a Neflix account, I couldn't take advantage of this expedited method. So, I waited for menu options but received none; instead, I was placed on hold to speak with a customer service representative. Music played, and then, the call went silent, so I hung up and called back.
I repeated the process by waiting on hold and was told by the automated system that my call would be answered in about 30 seconds. In about that time, a representative came on the line and asked if I had a current account. Since I was a new customer, she proceeded to share the variety of plans offered through Netflix, starting with a basic $6.99 monthly plan that allows you to watch limited shows and movies with ads up to a premium $22.99 monthly subscription for unlimited shows and movies with no ads.
In addition, the rep explained that you can access your Netflix subscription on multiple devices, based on the plan you purchase and can watch online through the website on a tablet, on a TV or via the app on any device. There are no contracts, she added, and you can cancel at any time. She reminded me that the monthly subscription payment will be processed automatically at the beginning of each billing cycle.
The rep was knowledgeable and patient without being pushy or persistent. She advised me to sign up online by choosing any plan, creating a password and adding a payment method. I was curious about any promotions, deals or trials that Netflix offers, but she confirmed that currently, there are no trial periods. She suggested I sign up for the basic subscription to try it out and upgrade to another plan at anytime.
She also shared that I could purchase a $25 gift card at any local retailer or online to try Netflix for a short time. This way, I could watch Netflix until the gift card amount runs out before making a decision. Gift cards are redeemed online.
Once I asked all my questions, the rep ensured that I had everything I needed before we hung up, and she again directed me to the website to set up an account once I was ready. While the website has extensive links to online help, I found calling customer support to be a productive and supportive use of time, thanks to an efficient and accessible team.

Information about why customers call Netflix is extracted from issues that customers have reported to GetHuman.
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, Netflix provides this option.
Netflix, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Netflix customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.

For large companies that includes tools such as our GetHuman Phone, which allows you to call a company but skip the part where you wait on the line to get a live human rep.
