    There was only one option and it was MXN.

    Strange.

    No peso on revolut.

    Just cancel and try again next month sure.

    Not entirely sure how that happened - if I recall from when I signed up (also with Revolut) I wasn't asked for a billing address, so can't think how they'd have started to bill in Euros. Only thing I can think of is that there was some sort of cock up with the VPN.

    Yes it did, I was a bit worried it might fail, also I’m sure Netflix are looking at all the Mexican accounts and going “I didn’t know there were so many Mexicans living in Ireland” :D
    No doubt they will clamp down on this practice at some stage.

    Using tunnelbear and trying to sign up with revolut but it just keeps producing an error "There appears to be a problem with the payment method you are trying to use."
    Did you need to select something specific to use revolut? it's definitely correct and the card is fine elsewhere. It also has never been used with netflix, nor has the email.

    You don't need a VPN to sign up or use Revolut just for signing up to Netflix Mexico or whatever region you've decided to use.

    Revolut gives the best exchange rate though

    Yes it does, but you don't need a VPN to use it. That's the issue the above poster was having I reckon.

    Quote the person then rather than making a random system

    Using VPN is the way to go to signing up

    If I don't use vpn for Mexico, it just keeps taking me to the Irish site?

    And I'm not getting any warnings for authorisation failed from revolution app.

    Using VPN won’t make a difference to signing up
    Whatever! Gimp.

    Just to clarify for people looking to sign up for a mexico netflix account, you will need to use a VPN set to Mexico to go through the sign up procedure otherwise it will just display you the irish site, but you will not need to use a VPN to access netflix after you have created your account. Regarding your payment method, people are using Revolut as they offer very favourable exchange rates and no charges, where as standard banks and CC companies have a worse rate and will have transaction fees. In the general scheme of things though as the amount we are talking about here is only around €9 a month, the fees won't be a massive if you choose a standard debit or credit card.

    Mexico is only €4 a month!

    How does Japan get it so cheap. I understand the poorer countries getting it cheap but Japan is far from poor.

    After re-checking the link above Japans prices have not been updated for 2 years so I do not know if they are still that price as I never checked.
