4400nk is the max package in Nigeria which is €2.73

Seen the same stats on a couple of websites re netflix prices, that Ireland is the 4th most expensive country in the world for Netflix subscription. Nuts money here. It's not within an asses roar of being even nearly worth it.

Couldn't get India to work for me using cyberghost vpn but Cambodia would without need for sms-9.99 dollars or 9.24 euros for top package, used an aib debit card.

Does account sharing with the premium Irish account , so if you had 4/5 people sharing the 20 euro per month so it would work out at 60 quid a year or a bit less ?

StaticNoise

I'm sure they'll pull you for having it in multiple homes at the same time?

I appreciate Netflix can clamp down etc etc but it's very dodgy keeping money for a service not provided. I think that could backfire on them yet.

StaticNoise

Very poor form. I couldn't dispute my payment with Revolut either.

I couldn't get Pakistan this late, tired, on my phone after discovering after 10pm it was gone. Started a chat with them and got the same run around as everyone else. Noticed I paid 6.29 for 4K on 8th Feb but managed to get Kenya using the Tunnelbear Free VPN. Windscribe and Tunnel bear didn't have Pakistan so maybe when they find the populations of Kenya, India and Pakistan rise even higher they'll catch us out again.

For me, switched to Kenyan VPN all via my phone. Paid with exact same Aib Credit card as Turkey and no text needed just approved from AIB app and went through. Temporary hold on my card appears to be €7.14 and that's for the 4K plan after all. Lot better than €20+ for the little we watch. I did not create a new account or use a different email, same email, same card, same users.

My mother shares my account(I'm very clearly the type of customer Netflix doesn't want) so can't be dealing with her asking what she can't watch the crown or something. Only this evening she asked about who owns her YouTube music account, said that is my Argentinian YouTube account but I don't use that because I've my Spotify "family" instead. Haha, sounds like karma caught up with me.

Whilst trying to get my Kenyan netflix working. I had my Turkish Prime Video on in the background.

What we do to save a few quid eh.

It's so strange how they seem to be spotting and nuking geo dodging accounts lately, a couple of days after sign up, but not refunding the payment that was taken. That is extremely dodgy.

It's still cheaper than what others are paying for India, even paying using vouchers

Result tonight with India!

Using the Hola VPN browser on my desktop connecting to India, then open Netflix making sure goes to the Netflix India site. Created a new account with a new email address. Selected the package (make sure it's in India Rupee). Select payment type and put in my Curve card number (which is linked to my Revolut card). It then sends a verification to your Curve app and then confirmed payment taken in Curve/Revolut apps.

Took a bit of trial and error but persisted and got there in the end. Payment went through after the verification @ 649 rupee or just over €7.32 for the full viewing package. Just logged in there and it's working fine. Lets see how long it lasts, got almost 6 years out of the Turkey deal so fingers crossed.

You'd wonder if some execs sat around a boardroom and thought "if we force them to their own country they'll pay us full whack surely.

Who is old enough to remember Xtravision? They told people that they couldn't rent a DVD because they brought the last one back late or whatever and people just said "ok, can't be ars-ed so" and just before the company crashed financially they said "all debts will be written off if you all just come back" and if was too late.

Nearly every Software company considers their financial future(a mix of other elements also of course) and earnings on ARR or MRR , in this case monthly recurring revenue. If you cull tens of thousands of customers that is a problem. Stock is down today for Netflix as it is.

Also had my Turkish account shut down this morning.

Set up a new Nigerian account tonight!

Used VPN unlimited to connect to Nigeria on my phone. Signed up using a fresh email address and entered a new card (Irish An Post Mastercard).

Payment screen then took me to verify by mobile number (Nigerian) - signed up (topping up $10) on sms-man.com to get Nigerian number.

Confirmation code received to Nigerian number in sms-man dashboard and then entered code on final screen of signup page on phone.

Success!!! Payment was taken - worked out at €2.63 for Ultra HD plan. Email confirmation of account received.

Checked Netflix app on Firestick, TV and phone with new account and all working.

Hopefully I’ll get a little while out of this account

Probably worthwhile watching through Nigerian VPN once in a while

I managed to sign up via Mexico but I’m getting errors saying ad region not supported or when I switch on vpn it’s saying to switch it off. Any way around that? Is there a cooling off period or what are the chances of getting money back? Not chancing that for loads of countries

webpal

Also beware of the phishing texts, b’stards have copped already

gussieg

Ahh, and they just took payment a few days ago, and Turkish account gone . Hmmmm.

TetraSonic55

My Turkish account was shut down as well.

Signed up via Kenya (Thanks Berty!) I needed a verification code so I used the PingMe app, cost about 2 or so euro to top up, got verification code and put it in, Paid with my Curve Card no problem. About 4.46 for standard plan.

It's only myself using the account so no need for the 4K plan. Happy as can be now!

What Irish card did you get it to work with ?

Tried my PTSB, N26 and Curve cards but no joy signing up for Nigeria. Was able to get the Nigeria prices shown through VPN Unlimited / KeepSolid.

An Post debit (Mastercard) worked for me for Nigeria. Had tried Revolut and N26 card but both of these declined.

Everyone said the same thing about their crackdown on password sharing and subscription numbers (and hence revenue) continues to rise.

3 Turkish subs = 1 Irish sub. They only need a 1/3 resignup rate to break even. That’s not hard. I’d expect a higher proportion to sign back up.

Chibs

Turkey gone for me too. Had it for about 7 years.

Failed all attempts to signup.. got on to chat.. sound lad, but could not get him to open up payment window in the chat.. but he kept saying, just use gift cards. I might give it a go.. So tried turgame and its a bit of a nightmare of a site.. OTP is a bit of a PITA on it.. then made the mistake of verifying my account using my Irish number, now only wire transfer is available for payment. Is this the norm or would more card options be available if using a Turkish number? How does everyone else pay on Turgame?

in2dark

Are you ppl getting email about cancellation of Turkish sub or just doesnt let you login anymore?
