    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)

    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)

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

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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 :D

    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

    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.

    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

    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? :-)

    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!
