    So I bought the VPN and a new 4k Fire stick and I want to set it up to use the BBC Iplayer but its not as per the link in the Keepsolid link for installing on the fire stick.. There doesn't appear to be anywhere to down load the Tinyurl.com/vpnu51 link.

    Any chance some one could post a dummies guide please?? :)

    Many thanks

    Good One

    You download the Downloader app and that’s where you put in the tinyurl link etc. Using the fire stick is a bit of an education so you’re better off learning how to fish than buying a fish burger!

    Can't seem to pay for this deal. I keep getting an error.
    The deal still has an hour or so. Any ideas?

    EDIT: Changed PayPal to use USD and it worked. Or maybe they just fixed whatever problem was on the server...

    I used in Spain too and worked perfectly for ITV hub

    Did you manage to play episodes of shows? I can get it to live stream but when I try play a previous show it won't work. Says; "Sorry, this video isn't available right now"

    I'm on laptop; Windows 10

    I've tried:
    - clearing browsing and cache on chrome, exiting out, restarting computer then launching VPN, selecting UK, then opening Chrome, using chrome browser extension and selecting UK on that also, then opening an incognito tab and trying iPlayer and ITV hub

    Nothing working :(

    I also have my location turned off on the laptop

    I used this before and it used to cast fine to the chromecast. Now it only let's me play usa netflix on my phone, not on the chromecast, anytime I try to cst it times out. Weird.

    Tried to sign into DAZN using this VPN and I can get in no problem but getting this Error code: 65_075_403 when I try to play any streams. Selecting Germany lets me log in but when I pick Canada it won't , any ideas why?

    It was mostly shows I watched. BBC may not work sometimes but itv or c5 works perfectly.

    What server are you selecting? Choose the servers that have the bbc iplayer icon.

    Anyone recommend a server to use for IPTV on this VPN?

    I must be doing something wrong, not working for me. Thanks anyway!

    Was looking at Surfshark for 27 months for about 40 quid. Not sure if its better than this offer. I know Iplayer, ITV player etc will work on it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,368 ✭✭✭Fionn


    this is not bad for Netflix etc. I wouldn't bother for anything serious like security or anything, torrenting and the like.
    You'd have to ask how long will it last? and why theyre offering it at such low price, I'm guessing they're just trying to increase their user base for the next iteration of their product.

    good reviews for VPNs on this site thebestvpn.com

    Imho, the surfshark is a better option. There's no denying that €14 is a good offer, but there is genuinely no way of knowing how long 'lifetime' will be. They may have drastically reduced the price because they are bringing out a new version in a year. Even if it is 3+ years, I still think the surfshark offer is better. There is no messing about, it just works, including torrenting, BBC iPlayer, Netflix, Amazon etc.
    €40 and you won't think about it. The only thing is, I would imagine like NordVPN and Cyberghost before them the prices will undoubtedly go up.

    Customer support is good with Surfshark too.

    Also, like ExpressVPN and Nordvpn etc. You can try it for 30 days, and if you are not happy, get a full refund.

    Have surfshark. IPlayer worked once and not since.
    ITV, CH5 players work fine.
    If you know a way of getting iPlayer to work then let’s know. It loads up fine, can select programme and then fails when you try to play. Tried Manchester & London vpn locations.

    Thinking of buying a new Android TV (Sony) in BF sales.
    Is there any way to have both BBC iPlayer (using VPN) and RTE player both working on it?
    Anyone managed this?
    TIA

    Did you request through PayPal or through their support ?

    Have been using Nord up to now and no issues. Failing to get any connection at all on this one.

    Have u got the Disney+ app downloaded? On the 4K stick, once I pick the Disney+ option on the VPN app, it’s plain sailing (after I set up a Disney+ account on my iPhone by using a US iTunes account and USD gift card!).

    Yes, have it downloaded but it refuses to open. Have the account set up on my phone and tablet but no joy with Firestick unfortunately. My Firestick is not the 4k one, so maybe that's the problem

    The current 4K one and the non-4k one have the same chipset I think. Even without the VPN, the app should open and then say it’s not available in your country etc. I would try restarting the firestick and/or re-downloadin the app.

    I tried a few different sources for the app and did finally tried apps2fire using actual app. I have a 4k one in the cupboard so will give that a go. Was too lazy to set it up before now. Really appreciate the help though
