Error Grants Person Free Netflix for Years

Getting your email mixed up with someone else's for an account is confusing — our minds immediately go toward identity fraud and someone stealing your credit card information, right? Well, clearly not in every case — especially when the fates of Netflix accounts used by untold amounts of people are concerned.

Redditor u/SoftPocketss took to r/MaliciousCompliance to share this wild story; somehow their email had grown associated with the wrong Netlfix account, and after a pain of a time dealing with Netflix customer service they wound up just using someone else's Netflix account for a whole decade with no issue whatsoever. It must have been wild to see that empire finally crumble and finally consider whether or not it's worth paying for Netflix. Do they pay for other streaming services? We need to know more details.

For some more company shenanigans, here's a dude who got hounded for trivial debt and ended up paying them a dime.
