Oh interesting. How did you get the billing to work? Mine keeps failing at that stage

TheDriver · 10-03-2021 10:27pm

You could setup your entire firestick with a Turkish account, you can change location of your device in your account to download apps from store and then change back to Turkish when installed. Don't think you'd notice

Thank you very much OP.
Prime Video Turkey up & running

Does the indian prime video have heavy censorship like cinema?

jakdublin · 11-03-2021 12:48am

Thanks for this. I’ve signed up and I was looking for a German series that was supposed to be launched last month called ‘Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof zoo’ (We children from Bahnhof zoo) but it’s not on Turkish Prime. Does anybody know if it’s on UK/Ireland Prime? Or if there’s any significant difference in availability of TV/movies in general?

There is a current thread on this. YouTube premium for around 1 euro per year. Less than 2 euro for a family membership

i believe you meant 1 euro a month and not year?

Does Turkish Prime also show live tennis tournaments like the Prime UK?

Also, would be interested what selections are there compared to the UK and the Irish one (which since the new year has been left with basically just Amazon Originals content)

If you're Amazon Prime is only showing Original content then it may be set up incorrectly. Can you seen Justified, Downton Abbey or Bobs Burgers for example?

Does it have the complete series of south park?

I have UK Prime and as you say lost access to most stuff but I now use Getflix and have the UK content all back working again.

Think you get a 2 week free trial with Getflix if you want to try. I also have access to US Netflix but I'm not sure what the difference is in the library.

iPlayer works too.

This is all on a Firestick. I didn't make the changes on my tv settings so still have Irish Netflix on that (same account though)

Dubai Duty Free WTA tennis kicking off today apparently on my Turkish A/C.

Posh Boy · 11-03-2021 3:37pm

So, does the UK content appear when using the Turkish or Indian equivalents?

Ush1 · 11-03-2021 4:09pm

That's grand, use the wife's email for the Turkish prime on the Android tv box and then anything I buy permanently I can just cast from my phone using my account. Cheers OP.

I can see those titles but when I click on them to view it says "This title isn't available in your location" It has been that way for me since 1 Jan 2021. You think there's a way around that that I've been missing (apart from using a UK vpn)??

I think you need to contact amazon customer support. They will change your location settings. They should all be available to you with an Irish prime account in Ireland.

If you won't use a VPN or smart dns proxy then you need to change from UK to Ireland content. UK content is geo blocked. From Ireland.

Pauly26 · 11-03-2021 11:00pm

So which is better for TV content, Indian or Turkish? Not bothered about the music, have the cheap Youtube premium setup.

I got the same. I just gave up and signed up to the Turkish site and didn't have much hassle.

Dunno. I logged into the app on my phone and it seems pretty much the same content as before. What's something that's only available on the English version?

I noticed that Coming 2 America didn't work last week (using my Irish account). It's working on this Turkish account. I don't know if that counts.
I tried it as a test, I know the movie is pretty crap

I don't see any live sports. I think they were showing before on the phone app with the Irish account. I can't remember, it's not something I'm interested in.

There's no way I can login to the Turkish prime video on my 4k firestick at all without the whole lot being Turkish? There's no clone app or anything?

Sorry i missed this, yes there is a very easy way:
Install aptoid
Look up prime
Select the prime video for android (looks like the native app)
Install app
Open app and select login
In a browser log in to your new account
Then use this page to register your new device:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/settings/your-devices/ref=atv_set_your-devices

The app will then load the profiles and you're good to go!
This also works in the fire cube

mistress_gi · 12-03-2021 10:14pm

Those who got the indian prime to work. Can i ask how you got the payment to work?
I'm playing around with it (i wanted to try the music feature) and I'm stuck on the payment page with the
International card is not available for this order.

Just signed up and it comes to 90c (thanks to the OP)

Does anyone have an issue where a number of episodes aren’t available on a series? For example The Handmaid’s Tale only has episode 3 of season 1 non of season 2 but the complete season 3. Just want to make sure I’m not the only one, can’t complain with the 90c regardless!

I have most episodes except the 1st 3 of season 1.

I am using Smart DNS on Getflix with Amazon Prime set to GB.

Btw there is loads of stuff on it if you set Amazon Prime on Getflix to Canada. The Handmaid's tail is missing though as it's probably streaming on something else.

That was on my phone. Now that I'm up I checked it on my TV (Chromecast with Google TV). Same amazon account but that has season 2. Still missing the first 3 of season 1. Very confusing.

joc10 · 17-03-2021 1:45pm

The sign up screen on Amazon India asks for confirmation phone number...does anybody know how you overcome this?

Snake Plisken · 17-03-2021 2:35pm

So if I sign up to Turkey or India and use Getflix to change to Canada on my TV then I can get the prime content on Canada? I've bought accounts on AliExpress seemed to be Indian based on the content offered and it did seem to work on Getflix when set to canada on my TV

It works for me on the Firestick 4K using Prime Turkey. I'm not using the native Prime app but the one referenced by mistress_gi post#75.

It looks like amazon india is now checking cards and no longer works. Shame because i was looking forward to trying amazon music

mistress_gi · 28-03-2021 5:46pm

Ok so after much faffing about i got amazon India prime to work and it includes amazon music.
For those who would prefer this option.
I bought a giftcard from dundle.com for 1000 rupees (i paid close to 15 euro) . Added this to amazon.in and used that to buy 1 year of prime. For some reason i got 250 rupees cashback!
I then moved all i could find in amazon to India . Then insalled amazon music activated a VPN to India (i used Turkey VPN from play store) and opened the app, and voilà all is working.
I may consider topping up the account with more giftcards to last me a couple of years. But I'll play around with this first.

Thanks for this very interesting. What would be the difference in choosing Indian instead of Turkey? :-)

mistress_gi · 28-03-2021 6:14pm

Turkey doesn't inlude amazon music. The Indian subscription it is a bit more expensive but includes video and music which i wanted because all my stuff is alexa controlled.
I did get youtube from the other thread but alexa and youtube music don't seem to like each other!

Sleeper12 · 28-03-2021 6:43pm

I don't understand how they aren't geo blocked. Seems like a great deal

delboy76 · 28-03-2021 6:50pm

I have the regular prime UK with the video working but no music. Is the Music Geo locked?

mistress_gi · 28-03-2021 6:54pm

From my dablings in this amazon prime business it looks lile some countries have it included (India) and others don't (like UK and Turkey).
I guess India has it geolocked in the sense you can't use a foreign credit card to sign up to it, there is that gift card workaround.
Now I'm working on transferring playslist between services.

Hi all,

I have had a UK Amazon Prime video but after a recent Brexit, they switched it back to the Ireland Prime video. The content is very limited.

I have 4K stick and changed my IP to the UK but Prime video recognized that my location is not right and thus it didn't work.

Any other way around to get the US or UK Prime video?

They ARE geo locked unless you bypass them using a third party DNS service such as Getflix or a VPN as some posters have stated.

Posters who aren't bypassing the geoblocks are getting Prime content for whichever country they are living in BUT they are paying a significantly lower price by nominating Turkey or India when setting up their accounts.

Try Getflix DNS, it works great for my Amazon Prime, BBC iPlayer and ITV hub, I don't use it much with Netflix.

My Alexa app and all that is linked to my UK account.
What will happen if I sign up to the India Prime? Will i need to move device "locations" to India too?

I only had to move devices to allow control of music app in my devices. Basically i deregistered devices, jninstalled Alexa then set up alexa again with an Indian location, checked if cast in the music app was showing device and was usable and then changed location back to Ireland. Now 4 of the alexa devices i own show in the cast option of Amazon music and i am now able to control music through the app on my phone.
I'm still not able to stream to firecube or samsung sound bar. I'll figure it out i hope.

masterboy123 · 29-03-2021 7:41am

I already tried SmartDNS VPN and Keepsolid VPN.

Somehow Prime Video knows that I am using VPN and gives an error "Check your device location". So it's not working for other countries.
