Is there any issues with the lifetime subscription? I thought I saw before that it's slower and doesn't work with as many services (e.g. US Netflix)
It works on US Netflix for me if using it in the router only
The vpn works for US Netflix but is much slower than your own broadband
No issues ever with speed though affecting playback for me in 8 years or so
No I do not have an account with getflix. Just wanted to know how people have purchased with stacksocial? I chose to pay with credit card and selected country US as tax was lower than UK, Then got an email saying to redeem the purchase along with "By: Getflix
We are currently acquiring your license for this product. Please check back soon."
I've contacted stacksocial support as digital purchases should be instant. Maybe there is an issue cos I'm in uk and said I was in US? Wondered if anyone else has tried to do what I did with success...
Actually says in the terms that it's new users only.
So they set up a getflix account for you ? Or is all they've said to you what you've posted there ?
Because there's no software involved with getflix and I don't see where then they'd be using a key or giving you one
Getflix are based in Turkey
I've sorted it! I bought it again with PayPal! No tax to pay this time using PayPal so worked out cheaper! The first order didn't go through anyway as I wasn't charged for it.
I had to use PayPal too. First order with the credit card was cancelled and refunded with no explanation.
I don't see BBC iPlayer in the list under "Regions". Am I missing something?
It automatically works with BBC iPlayer.
Thanks! Makes sense. Not like it works in other countries 😂
i seem to remember setting uk as a location for the smart dns to get iplayer working when i first joined
So has anyone figured out what happens if you're already a Getflix subscriber and you go for this offer?
There are only 4 hours left.
You go for it with a new account,different email address
I feared that.
I assume that means that I'd have to reconfigure all my devices?
It says must be a new account but I had a paid account to July, I entered the code & I'm sorted until 2052
Where did you do that @Sleeper12 ? In your Getflix account somewhere?
EDIT: I see the part in the account where I can enter the promo code. It tells me I have to cancel the other one first. Did you have to do that?
No, as far as I remember you set up the new account and refresh on the dashboard to register the IP address that you are using. Your devices don’t need to be altered
No I didn't have to cancel but I only had over a month left. It wouldn't bother me canceling. I've never found the signal quality good using Getflix for US Netflix. I use Getflix for Iplayer, UK Now TV, HBOMAX, Paramount & it never lets me down
Nope
Just log into the new account and register your IP address on the new account
No changes to the devices
Bugger.
I'm getting caught for tax, even through Paypal.
I added a US address in PayPal. Used a random address generator. Went with Delaware as they've 0% sales tax.
Transaction went through fine and code now added to Getflix. Thanks to the poster for flagging this offer!
Ended up missing the offer. Still have 18 months left on my current sub though, so surely it'll pop up again.
Re. Paypal @Quackster , how did you add the US address? Do you have a seperate US Paypal account, 'cause I can only add Irish addresses.
No, when I clicked on the 'PayPal' button to pay, a new window opened up to log into my PayPal account.
Once I did that, there was a drop-down menu at the top asking me to select my address with a button underneath to add a new address. I just clicked that and added the random US address, which was accepted without issue.
Then I paid with my Curve card, making sure to choose to be charged in dollars and all went through fine.
Just so people know, the offer was supposed to end last night, but it's back up again "ending in 7 days".

Nah, I'm jinxed.
Got to that window, have put in 3no. seperate Deleware address, and each one gets "Stack social does not ship to this address" and tax is added.
How much is it with no tax? Shipping to Ire it's 47 euro for me if my eircode is 0000 using my Irish address.
Thank you! This worked for me too though seeing 2052 is plunging me into a slight existential crisis. :)
Thank you! I tried so many different times and ways yesterday but couldn't get it to work. Today it worked by being signed out of both my Paypal and stackSocial accounts, I clicked the pay by PayPal button, clicked pay by card as guest, entered my card details with true billing address, unselected ship to billing address, entered Deleware shipping address and it finally worked!
Well knock me down....it worked!
No idea why, but it did.
Signed up until 2054, so it seems to have stacked on top of my current subscription!
Sorry but going slightly off topic for a second. How do the people with getflix feel about the service in comparison to a more traditional vpn like windscribe or nordvpn? Any issues connecting to certain sites or any throttling issues?
Main reason I'm asking is because I've never used anything other than a vpn.
Thanks and sorry again for going slightly off topic.
I don’t know anything about their vpn service.
But their smart dns service, with their customer service, is worth multiples of this price.
Came in at €45.73 for a 30 year sub!
