ChD Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 This is more a question about Netflix. So, I was just wondering the following thing. Netflix isn't available in my country, but I still have the option to log in. My question is: If I would ask a friend from the US to buy me a Netflix account (with me sending the money for the monthly payment), would I be able to use it outside the US?The only thing that worries me is that the IP's might be blocked. Anyone ever done something like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I think it's an IP issue. I tried to use it while I was in Japan a few years ago and it didn't work. Try to find someone from the US to lend you their login and try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 While I'm in Europe I'm using a program called "Hide My Ass" that allows you to use an IP address from another country (US, etc). It's only like $10 a month or something so I'd say it's worth it. Funny thing with Netflix is that I switched my IP to US, and then to UK, then to Denmark, and each country that it's available in has a different selection.

DeeCee Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 What TV shows does Netflix have and how quickly after they broadcast in the US are they available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil in the Blank Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 You can get around the ip geo-block by using a service such as http://www.unblock-us.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I know. That's why I asked. I was thinking of going semi-legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
