    Where are you trying to access the content from?

    Through the Amazon app. Wrong way to do it?

    It sounds like you have an Irish account or prime video is set to Ireland. Or you are using vpn or dns.

    Make sure your amazon account is registered to a UK address. Send a ticket to support saying that you have UK account but can't access prime video. They will sort it out in a few hours

    I have my default address as my UK address pal but I still get this message...This title is currently unavailable This title isn't available in your location.


    Default delivery address UK isn't the same as having a UK account. You need to change your country of origin to UK

    Ok I'm sorted guys. I got onto chat and they said sign out and sign back in. It worked I can watch batman Vs superman now

    Go into Your Account & into Manage Your Content and Devices. Click preferences then Country/Region Settings enter UK


    This link might bring you straight to the page. Log in first https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/mycd/myx#/home/settings/payment


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,857 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    Come to think of it.

    What's the U.S library for Prime Video like? The same as U.K or better, anyone know?

    Slightly better.


    As the US aren't part of the EU having a US account wont give you US Prime Video without a VPN or Smart Proxy DNS. I might go back to this set up when UK leaves the EU & we will need VPN/DNS to get UK content. I defiantly wont be sticking with Irish Prime Video

    The first thing that showed up for me on the UK version was Batman vs Superman which is not on the Irish version.

    Who's in the Irish version?
    Colin Farrell?

    So just to be clear, if I switch my country to UK I get better prime video and everything else is the exact same?

    Thanks for the tips lads, never really thought of using prime video but I will be now. Chat went the exact same way as above, no asking for billing address.

    Yes.

    You can move back to Ireland anytime you want. It takes seconds to change the settings


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,247 ✭✭✭leex


    Is this chat session done via the Amazon or Primevideo site?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,005 ✭✭✭iggy


    Just about to sign up for prime.
    Do I have this right?
    Leave my Irish address as is
    Get them to change region to UK for prime video
    I have an android TV box and firesetick. Do I just install primevideo app on android box and do I just leave firestick as it is?
    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,542 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Figured out why I was getting Prime delivery without paying for it or signing up - the wife has it on her account and our accounts are linked. :o

    Would I be right in thinking this only works if you have signed up for prime delivery, and not just prime video?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,200 ✭✭✭deadl0ck


    The Amazon chat sorted me out !

    Here's the full chat in case anybody is interested what I said:
