Netflix installed and set up on your TV. I'll log you in, show you how it works, and make sure you can actually find something to watch without getting frustrated.
Just Want To Watch Something Without The Hassle
You've heard everyone talking about shows on Netflix. You might even be paying for it already. But the last time you tried to set it up on your TV, you gave up after 20 minutes of menus and passwords.
Or your kids set it up months ago, but now something's not working and they're not around to fix it.
💡 Pro tip: Once Netflix is set up and logged in on your TV, you rarely need to fiddle with it again. It just opens when you select it.

| Password saved, auto-login | Typing passwords with TV remote |
| Simple demonstration of basics | "Figure it out yourself" |
| Remote buttons explained | 47 buttons, no idea which ones matter |

🔧 DIY Tips
Want to set up Netflix yourself? Here's the process:
🔧 What you'll need
- Your TV (smart TV or one with a streaming device)
- Your Netflix email and password
- WiFi network name and password
- TV remote
- Patience with typing on TV remotes (it's slow!)
📱 Setting up on a Smart TV
- Press 'Home' or 'Smart' button on your TV remote
- Find the app store (might be called LG Content Store, Google Play, Samsung Apps, etc.)
- Search for "Netflix"
- Download and install the app
- Open Netflix
- Enter your email and password (this bit's tedious with the remote)
- Select "Remember me" if given the option
💡 If your TV's not smart enough
- Get a Fire TV Stick (£30-50) or Roku
- Plug into HDMI port on back of TV
- Connect to your WiFi
- Netflix comes pre-installed
- Much easier to type passwords with included remote
⚠️ Common issues
- App won't download: Your TV might be too old for the latest Netflix
- Login fails: Check you're using the right email/password
- Says "Can't connect": Check your WiFi is working
- Screen goes black: Usually needs a TV restart
🎯 Pro trick: If typing passwords on your TV remote drives you mad, most streaming apps now let you activate via phone. Look for "Login with code" or similar - gives you a code to type on your phone's browser instead.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
📺 Not just Netflix: While I'm there, I can set up BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, Prime Video, Disney+ - whatever you want. No point having me back separately.
Multiple family members? Netflix lets you have different profiles. I can set those up so everyone has their own watchlist.
Elderly relatives or parents? This is a really popular service for people setting up parents with streaming. I'll take time to explain everything clearly and leave written instructions if helpful.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to already have a Netflix account?
Ideally yes - I can log you into your existing account. If you haven't got one yet, I can help you sign up on your phone or laptop, then get it on your TV. You'll need payment details for Netflix themselves.
What if I can't remember my Netflix password?
We can reset it - you'll just need access to the email address linked to your Netflix account. I'll walk you through it, get you a new password, and save it on your TV so you don't need to type it in again.
Will you show me how to actually use it?
Yes - that's half the job. I'll show you how to browse, search, play something, pause, go back to menu. I'll also explain the remote buttons you actually need and which ones to ignore.
My TV's not a smart TV - can I still get Netflix?
Yes, but you'll need something to connect - a Fire Stick, Roku, or similar. I can advise what's best for your TV and set it up. You'd need to buy the device (about £30-50), but then you get Netflix, iPlayer, everything.
Can you set up other streaming services too?
Absolutely - BBC iPlayer, Prime Video, Disney+, whatever you want. If you're having multiple things set up, we can do them all in one visit.
