Question: how do you go about getting a sterling Revolut card?

I think you'd need a UK / NI address, driver's licence, passport.

When getting the English prime content I didn't use a VPN, revolut or change anything, just contacted them on the chat.

thanks !!! nobody has answered the question though, do Amazon allow you to bring the firestick on your travels? they obviously know your location hence it not working for lots of people - but once you get it sorted with their support team is there a cap on how long it can be operated outside the country of your plan?

You can bring it anywhere in the EU and your prime will work perfectly. Outside of the EU I can't see prime working as it's geo blocked

It worked for me in South America but there wasn't as much content.

Did you just get Prime originals or was it like when Irish Prime first set up. We had Prime Originals & a tiny amount of content?

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 14-10-2019 03:03PM

I sort of accidentally signed up for a Prime free trial the other day and I've had a good old nosy around the site and while it's definitely improved since first launching there's still not a whole lot of content there. I reckon with a bit of time management Id get through everything I wanted to watch before the trial runs out.

Yeah signed up and forgot to cancel so had a month to have a mooch about. Nothing there really to keep me paying every month.

Really enjoyed Undone S1. A rotoscoped show about mental illness

Came in to say this. Absolutely loved it. All the characters was very likable and kept the show moving at a good pace. It didn't hurt that they were half hour long episodes, easy to watch on the train home etc. Although I generally tended to get through 2 or 3 of them at a time.

Makes me want to check out the Keanu Reeves movie, "A Scanner Darkly". Its animated by the same studio.

Is there a legitimate way of changing prime from Ireland to UK?

You need to contact them on the chat, whether you think that's legit or not I'm not sure. Don't think there's another way.

People should note that the Premier League games will not be on Amazon Prime Ireland, as Premier sports have the distribution rights in Ireland

What if you're registered to the UK Prime but in Ireland? Will they block it because it's an Irish IP?

Will premier sports have all games available? I thought they only had the Saturday 3pm games and the Amazon games were a separate package.

They have the Amazon games too and have promised to make them available. It’ll be interesting to see how they do it. My understanding is that Amazon will be making the games available on Sky for commercial customers (most of whom just aren’t set up to do streaming) and it may be that Premier will be able to piggy back on that.

Thanks for the information

Tin Star is a Sky commission and is on Sky Atlantic/Sky Go/Now TV.

Afaik even in the UK it’s only available to purchase from Amazon.

All I did was contact Amazon on chat and say that I was living in Northern Ireland. I had my primary address set as my Parcel Motel address. They had no issues changing it or for me.

Finished season 1 of The Fall and it's really good.
Hadn't seen it when it was on TV.
