Hello Everyone, I have seen cheap Netflix and YouTube deals using VPN (only for registration) from Turkey, India etc here in HUKD. Do any of you know whether it’s possible to register for Disney Plus in a country where it’s cheaper and then watch in the U.K. (without VPN)?
Many thanks in advance.

sorted byBut you now need an Indian phone number. If anyone can get past that then it is like 15 pounds a year including all prem league games too but live sports had problems with capacity to be honest.
Can Skype provide a temporary Indian number?
hi my cousin lives in india he signed up to disney hotstar and just sent me over the login details kind regards
India, will come around £16 a year
Thank you, I am only interested in movies, series etc for my kids.
Please can you explain how it's done.
Getting an Indian mobile number isn't going to be big problem
A long time ago I created a Hotstar account by email. I paid someone on fiverr from India to make the payment for me as it needed Indian payment method. Lately I cannot log in anymore as needs to be registered with an Indian phone number.
If you knew someone with Indian phone number and payment then should be easy just to create an account and use an Indian VPN.
I used both website on pc and also firestick app.
good idea! alas doesn't look like it!

there's two types of phone identification.
one is a one-time password and there are websites that show phone number text messages (ie you only need a one-off code)
but I think hotstar is requiring you to log in via a phone number. what I don't know is whether you need that phone number for regular text messages of codes. in theory someone in India on fiverr could buy sim cards and register new numbers for us. but I suspect that you need ID for phone numbers and they will be getting attention from the powers that be for having so many phone numbers!!
Hello There, it would be great if you could share how you managed to get India account working in the U.K.
This seems to be via hotstar. I had it in the past but then needed an Indian phone number. I originally paid someone from fiverr to set up but then was able to renew it myself. But then they blocked email only accounts.
Thank you. That was the issue I am also facing. My friend shared India login details, but when I try to login (via VPN or not), it’s directing me to account creation page
Thank you Jay. But I tried the same and it’s asking me to complete subscription in GBP. Not sure what I am missing here (edited)
I've had it since they started offering it as an extra, by far the best way of getting it imo
has your contact in india paid using his indian card e.g. bank of baroda etc and used his mobile number to sign up?
once you login into the uk disney the hotstar dissapears (edited)
Yes, he paid using HSBC India account and used his mobile number for verification
I know tidal is cheaper in Argentina. I have a share from hukd and it was in Spanish for the original sign up messaging and presume that is where it is from.
No.
Both services use the country your payment details are registered in to confirm your location and if it doesn't match the country you're trying to register in, there's no chance. Deezer are particularly pro-active about checking this as well.
The easiest and cheapest way for both is to start a family share and rope other people in. Works out just shy of £3 quid each per month.
tried tidal too and that’s the same. Shame you can’t pay in Crypto like on the PS store (edited)
