Thanks for the replies.
I think I have used NordVPN before, it certainly sounds familiar.
Not sure the shadowsocks app would do what I want though as I assume it just masks your location rather than enabling you to set your location like a VPN can.

I use NordVPN for work for when working away

Is Nord anygood with Netflix? I have Tiger for now and again just because it was cheap, but it's nodes are all blocked by NF. Also, is the best deal one the one which just popped up while googling, 3years for $99? Only $20 more than their $79 2year deal.
This deal doesn't appear on their website, but it seems like a good price:

EDIT: There's a small chance that you could get 40% cashback too - https://www.topcashback.co.uk/nordvpn/

I vote for PIA VPN, brilliant, I use it all the time and get full internet speed through it.

What is geo-locking?
And that looks good what you're on it's less than half the price, is it fast and no issues? I tend to use it all the time on my PC and wonder what it is like Vs PIA.
Where you can access websites that should only be accessed by IP addresses from that country. iPlayer never worked on their UK servers for example.

Can it get around Netflix? PIA never could.
Yep. Changed my location to one of their NY servers, logged into Netflix and there's stuff on there that I don't recognise from the UK version.
Caporegime
When you play it does it work? I can get the content showing but clicking on it shows an error.
Ah no, no it doesn't. Have PIA sorted the iPlayer issue out since I left? Seemed daft that I couldn't access a UK website when connected to one of their UK servers. I may have to get in touch with their support team and see what they say anyway.
NordVPN seems to bypass Netflix so might have to give that a try if all else fails.

Nice one Digibit here I come !

Why does my browser still know my real location when connected to a VPN?

Had good experience with torguard.

I've decided to give the 3year $99 NordVPN a go. I went through topcashback who were offering 40% cashback. So, assuming it tracks it's $60 for 3years.
edit- it has tracked, so it's cost £1.19/month. That's good value!

I've just started with Digibit, excellent, speeds fantastic too and Netflix bypass indeed works, brilliant for 2 quid 50 a month!!!
