Ways to save money using a VPN?

The mugs paying and still not being legit lol. I'd rather (and do) pay 0 and stop messing around. YT premium turkey trick being the exception because it's hard to pirate that.

You say yourself you have YT premium via VPN, are you a mug for paying 89p a month for the privilege instead of full price? My use case is not the same as yours and torrenting everything is not a viable option.

Not strictly adhering to one point of the likes of Netflix Terms of Use does not equal piracy.

Canva is an cloud based online graphic design app that i have been tinkering with.

You do you, you are still as much as a pirate as someone using usenet (torrenting different as you are technically sharing the content too).
 
Anyone recently been able to get YouTube Premium via VPN?

I'm encountering a "We couldn't verify your country." message this time around. Also of note, they've changed from an annual subscription to monthly rolling it seems - booo!

Just to update my own post - Egypt "worked" in terms of getting through the "couldn't verify your country" block, however when trying to make payment using my Revolut card I encountered another block which was that my payment card of issue didn't match the address provided - This would have worked out at £1.10ish per month had it worked.

I instead managed to renew from Kenya, which didn't require an address match to country of card issue - this works out at £3ish per month, which I'm happy with.
 
Have any F1 fans had any success getting F1TV Pro recently?

Did it a few years ago, currently on a long holiday in Australia so unable to access Sky Go, and can’t subscribe to the Australian equivalent as I’m in loads of different locations.

I’ve tried with PIA and Tunnelbear though the US, Netherlands and New Zealand, but keep getting “You’ve connected from a georestricted area” on both the F1 app and the website, no matter what country I go through :confused:

Smart DNS Proxy was what I used successfully the last time I was using F1TV. They do a free trial so worth a shot.

Turns out F1 had made it so you HAVE to use a card that’s registered in the country you’re trying to register in, I gave up earlier today as had to get on with my day but it seems almost impossible to get around it now :(

Ah yes that rings a bell as to why I stopped using it.

It’s frustrating how expensive it is to watch. I’d happily pay a reasonable amount.

Nord VPN to the states and the F1 app on a fire stick work for me and has done for years, the app subscribes via the Amazon App Store which doesn't care where in the world you are.

£5.99 a month for Live F1 and access to supports/back catalogue etc. No Premium 4K service yet though.

I’m sadly pretty Apple centric for everything other than main PC, iPhone and Apple TV.
 
Is this still a thing considering all websites and Apps know you're using a VPN? I can't even watch the stuff I pay for when I'm on holiday e.g. NowTV.

Although, strangely enough YouTube still thinks I'm a Brazilian hairdresser and charges me $2.19 a month.
