    That's the Netflix price structure that hasn't been updated (missing the recent US increase). The currency conversion is automatic and up-to-date.

    Guys just a quick question on this.

    Last night I signed up for the 30 day free trial of the dearest package the 4 screens ultra hd. So before this finishes next month, can I purchase using the VPN, or will I need to cancel off this account and open a brand new acc ?

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,787 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    I opened a new account whilst using the vpn.

    Out of curiosity why didn’t you just set up the Turkish account with vpn while you were at it ?

    It never even entered my head. I was going to pay full price as it was then I remembered seeing something here and by the time I had a good luck through this thread I already had the acc set up.

    You reckon, finish this acc and set up Turkish ?

    Why not just set up a new account now using the VPN and it'll save your history while also on the trial?


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 An tAlbanach


    Tried NordVPN - could not get to Turkish site.

    Tried Browsec - can get to Turkish site and they say there is an issue with payment method. Tried BofI and N26. No option for PayPal.
    Tried using a former account that lapsed and a new one.

    Any other ideas? Should I try another country?


  • Registered Users Posts: 511 ✭✭✭RickyBobby1


    Unable to load the turkish netflix using HolaVpn..says""no servers available"

    the country makes no difference it sounds like your vpn is the issue, try deleting cookies etc or use incog mode or what i would do is use hola as mentioned in the faq in post 1

    I tried loads of countries, all options etc etc until eventually argentina netflix allowed me in under HOLA plus in incognito.

    Not too bad a price!

    As mentioned

    Clear cache
    clear cookies
    clear browsing history.
    Turn off wifi
    restart computer
    Connect to VPN
    and try again. :)

    Did you sign up to hola trial or are you trying to use the free limited version



    Read the FAQ people that’s what it’s there for, this works for 90% of people and that’s because they are doing it properly

    Steady on...jesus 😂😂

    Yeah I guessed that after..need to upgrade to the better version.


  • Registered Users Posts: 511 ✭✭✭RickyBobby1


    Dont reply then...

    Never saw the Faq do thanks for thatðŸ‘


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 302 ✭✭RFOLEY1990


    Will this work with other subs (if they are even cheaper in other countries)

    PSN or Spotify?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Standman


    It was mentioned earlier in the thread, but worth mentioning again so people don't waste money on it: Nord VPN will not work when attempting to sign up via Turkey - their "Smart Play" feature redirects you to the US site, and there's no way around it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    It works with PSN. But you have to buy all your games etc from that region. There's no changing it back sort of thing like this.

    Is it the same for Mexico?

    Edit: no matter what server I use on NordVPN I get redirected to US.

    Have cleared everything rebooted etc

    Bord vpn is crap
    As per the faq
    Use hola and sign up for the free trial

    Can’t even sign up, keep getting server unreachable, I’ll try another one

    I used turbo VPN and deleted once I was sorted with subscription. Bought via turkey..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭n1ck


    I bought a lifetime sub for VPN Unlimited and I find it great, they have specific servers for particular applications and it ensures most servers don't get bogged down.

    Used it for this as well and worked a treat.

    I'm with them also, find them great too.

    When I get to the final step, they are asking for a turkish mobile number to send a text message to. Anyone else get this or know a way around it?

    You're doing something wrong in the process. Shouldn't be required.

    Not sure what. Accessed Turkish netflix via Hola vpn. After I added revolut details it brought me to a final step where it asked for a turkish mobile number.

    They might have found us out and this is their way to stop it.

    Netflix have not found us out as you say they have known about it since the start but the amount of people doing it it’s not bothering them

    Mobile number verification is something for the us market as far as I know, have you signed up to hola full version using the free trial ?

    Was using hola free trial on android. I tried Argentina and got the same - they looked for a mobile number.

    Trying now on desktop with speedify vpn. Now there is a message saying there appears to be a problem with the payment method you are trying to use.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,581 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    Based on the amount of people who couldn't be bothered doing 3 mins work to cut their annual Netflix bill by 80-90 euro, Netflix don't care. Tons even pay through the nose for Netflix through sky etx


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Argentina is currently the cheapest. Full plan works out about 6.60pm at the mo

    This made me do it. Took me less than 3 mins actually, but I already have a VPN. Don't actually use Netflix normally but for less than €3 a month it just seems crazy not to have it as an option :-)

    I got that as well, but it's optional. I just ignored it and I was signed up immediately.

    Is there any Netflix families on the go?

    Currently paying for a Spotify for 5 other parasites, so wouldn’t mind going in on one for Netflix!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 956 ✭✭✭devil-80


    How much work out for 1 user ?
    I could be interested.

    It is. I have it.

    It's not I signed up 2 days ago for it. It's 5 odd euro I for the 4 screen non 4k plan it's about 6.50 for full 4k.

  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    I signed up a few weeks ago at 229 for full version. Still the same on my account when I checked there. Must've just recently changed.

    The Argentine 4k did actually go up 3 or 4 months ago. 299 sounds right. I pay about 7 with the transaction fee. Going to cancel and go Turkey and use Revolut.

    Remember one user could hog the 4 screens unlike Spotify where everyone gets their own account


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 956 ✭✭✭devil-80


    Argentine seems to be the cheapest its 299 so around 6.52€ anyone setting the family?

    Bought the 4K plan from Turkey around 6 months ago and only finally got a 4K OLED. My word planet earth looks stunning. Well worth the ~€6 I’m paying :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 157 ✭✭jkbah


    I'll take a place on family account if it's going. Revolut

    Did the Mexican price go up or did the peso go up in value ?

    Maybe the peso is stronger now, I never thought of the exchange rate


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,625 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    Euro Mxn was 24 odd June 18, 23 in December and has moved down to around current 22.00 to the Euro.
    2016 it was around 16 Mxn to the Euro!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,876 ✭✭✭ozmo


    Got a getflix vpn - but the only option for netflix was mexico - but the ip was so close to usa that Netflix considers it usa - so very little price difference to ireland- signed up anyway.

    Gone up to $16 a month now - way too expensive - cancelled netflix today.

    “Roll it back”

    Was waiting for my sub to end before signing up in Turkey again and it's asking for a Turkish number now. Have I just gotten unlucky here and they've copped it?

    I think it's only if you are trying to add a new card. Just 'took the hit' on the Irish card for the first month.
