Disney Plus registration via VPN

Posted 11th Mar 2021
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.

    I tried to sign up when I was in Brazil a week ago (£45 a year there), but it wouldn't let me use my revolt or PayPal accounts (edited)

    Been over this before it's near on impossible to do. The best bet is to sign up for the yearly plan and save that way.

    Currently Disney+ is priced everywhere more or less the same. But Disney+ allows a large family

    But 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?

    I'm on my second free 6 months of Disney+ with the O2 extra offer. The first was with a £5pm SIM for my daughter and then an £8pm contract for myself. Depending which way you look at it you are getting cheaper mobile phone services or cheaper Disney+.

    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!
    support.skype.com/en/…ble

    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!!

    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

    I've had it since they started offering it as an extra, by far the best way of getting it imo

    Any ways of getting Spotify or Deezer in a ‘cheaper’ country using a VPN please? I spent a bit of time trying to get it to work the other day but PayPal was playing up. V annoying.

    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.

    Good to know thanks. Guess I’m stuck with YouTube music. It’s not bad, just not as good as Spotify.
    tried tidal too and that’s the same. Shame you can’t pay in Crypto like on the PS store (edited)
