    I just used my existing CyberGhost VPN to sign up in Canada, there was no Mexico server option and I don't trust the web based proxies for credit card details.

    Still, the 4 screen HD pack is only €9.46 in Canada.

    Pair with Revoult, a free month (-9.46) and 11 months (104.06) = €94.60 for the year. If I let the Irish subscription run on it would have been €167.88 for the year, so a massive saving of €73.28 for the year!

    I didnt even need a new email address, with Gmail if you put a full stop anywhere in the email it delivers to the original inbox!

    Thanks OP, I owe you a pint!

    @Kencollins - I'm stupid about these kinds of things so would love if you'd talk me thru' this.

    I have Hola already so that should do instead of your CyberGhost?
    Also, I have a Revolut card so can use that.
    Where does the free month come from?

    Thanks.

    Any risk adding Irish phone number onto Mexican account, I wonder?

    You always get a free month when you set up a new netflix account

    I haven't, accidentally used same email and they took money straight away. Also, I think if you use same card they do it. So you need new email and new card.

    P.S. or I think I used the same email, it was registered ok and didn't complain this email already exists.

    Yeah, it needs to be a new email address and a new payment method. Thankfully in my case, I recently swapped my original Revolut card for a new free contactless one,(another bargain from bargain alerts) so Ive a new card number now also.

    Interested in joining a group if someone is signing up - Paypal
    Cheers

    I'm also interested in joining a 4K group. I'll transfer money by PayPal


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭cletus


    Ye have half a group there between the two of you. Why not set one up and ask for more members, you'd probably get a quicker response

    There's only about 6 steps involved, and I've listed them earlier in the thread, but whatever you like :D

    Would like to join a 4k group too! Just signed up for revolut there!

    Looking to join a 4k Netflix group.

    Cheers for this. Mexican prices are more in line with my wallet these days.

    I used Tunnelbear, put a . in my gmail address and used a new debit card to sign up. Got a free month and it should cost me around 7 euros for 2 HD screens going forward. Will switch to Revolut as payment method if the currency charges are massive but I probably won't need to.

    Tip : Don't login into Gmail when you're using Tunnelbear for the sign-up as Google may think your account has been compromised and send you alerts accordingly.

    Mexico upping prices end of year to mx199 about €9 so from 30th December


  • Registered Users Posts: 760 ✭✭✭Terminator


    Do you have a link for that price increase? The amount I've signed up for is mx149 and there is no mention of a price increase.

    For which tier? My current price is mx199 for the 4k package


  • Registered Users Posts: 210 ✭✭jvrk


    I got an email today I was paying 159 for 4k plan for the last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 760 ✭✭✭Terminator


    Oh that's the old price for the 4k package - looks like you had a good deal.

    I signed up for 2 x HD streams which is mx149 / 7 euros per month.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,726 ✭✭✭podge3


    Colombia was slightly cheaper than Mexico when I signed up a few weeks back. Dunno if it's going up, I got no notification about it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,917 ✭✭✭0ph0rce0


    I signed up on the mexican site.

    Got charged 6.99 for the free month.

    And in the email which is in Spanish it says EUR/10.99 going forward.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,413 ✭✭✭EagererBeaver


    Huh? You got charged 6.99 for the free month?

    If you signed up on Mexico, you'd be getting charged pesos. How come you're getting charged convenient .99 euro figures.

    The money actually never came off the card my bad. Free month in the bag haha


    When I signed up it said $149 MXN

    When I got my confirmation mail it says EUR/10.99

    Did anyone else's confirmation mail say 10.99 in euros or the MXN price?

    When you go to the Mexican site using your VPN and go to Billing Info or Change plans do you still see the MXN price. All I see is euros.

    See pic
