    They are currently doing half price 2 year deal on their website

    Cheers fo the heads up, I just signed up for the 14 day trial.:)

    Went through the step by step guide and changed the dns code on my PC, had to update the region settings on the getflix dashboard.

    I then logged into netflix and searched for walking dead to see if it was a success,
    Walking dead is available but it wont stop buffering.

    PC is wired directly to the router via ethernet and download speed of 240mbs.

    Any ideas?

    Try signing out and clearing cache etc then log in again

    Is it just a case of setting the DNS IPs to those of Getflix on their site? Is there more config to do?

    Who's your ISP? Maybe they've copped on to the getflix dns?

    I did a DNS Leak test and that's still working fine (no leaks) and tried with my mobile provider too just in case. The same in all cases so I don't think it's the ISP.

    (Which is a small local one so I don't want to name any names!)

    You can get the UK content of Prime without a DNS changer.

    Get on to customer services and ask them to change your Prime address to the UK.

    Prime is working fine for me on devices with Getflix set up on them btw but also works on devices without it.

    Does that work? I thought even UK dwellers got a limited selection when they were travelling abroad?

    Yeah works perfectly. New EU laws means you get your home content no matter where you are in the EU. There’s a lot about it on the Prime thread on here.

    I got onto chat a few weeks ago and asked them to chenge my Prime location to the UK which they did and I have the whole UK library.

    Easiest way to check that it’s working is search for the film Batman vs Superman which is on the UK store but not the Irish.

    I had same problem few weeks back, tried everything was asked by dns provider. Ended up it was amazon who had stopped me. Got onto Amazon customer care had few hoops with them, used a revoult card as proof of uk bank account, already had a uk address Amazon then enabled all content back.

    They didn’t even ask for an address. I think I may have changed my default address to a Uk address on my account. Either parcel motel or just googled one but can’t remember if it was necessary.

    I only have an Irish credit card registered.

    USA content on Netflix working fine for me using getflix, I sometime have to update my ip on getflix dashboard or on the app but that’s no big deal.
    Don’t have amazon anymore I ditched it so can’t comment on that.
