REX of how I got a cheaper netflix account

VPN
1

Hello,

I’ve seen many topics everywhere on the web to understand how to subscribe to a cheapest account on Netflix by using a VPN so that I decided to put my REX of how I performed this.TLDR: I got a premium subscription to netflix in Colombia for 8 euros and without password-sharing lock.

My account was created many years ago in France, now I live in Canada.When Netflix deploy the new password-sharing protection, I decided to fuck off morality and I tried to have a cheaper Netflix account.

Here’s the step that I followed:

1: Let your subscription expires at least 1 day. I just turned off my subscription and wait 24h before doing the other steps. IDK if 24h is important.

2: Use a proper VPN, for me I use hide.me vpn with a 5 days free, it’s a good vpn, and connect to a country. In my case I tried so many countries like Turkey, Egyptia, Brasil etc and in all of them, it was not possible for me to connect to my account with a message “Password Incorrect”. So I use another method =>

2a: Without VPN, send a reset password link to your email, and copy it.

2b: With a VPN, in Colombia for my case, open a private tab and put this link, reset your password. You should be logued now.

3: Subscribe to the plan that you want, I personnaly use a Revolut card but I’m pretty sure it will work with any cards. I don’t use the system with foreign gift cards because Revolut is sufficient for me.

4: When I disconnected from the VPN to Canada, I discovered that I was region locked, but if I put my VPN in France, or in any another country, I wasn’t, it was so strange so I believe that Netflix will region lock only the first country which differ from the country where you subscribed.My guess is that if you put your VPN on another country and refresh your page, you should be region locked in this country, but turning off and you will be completely free where you live. It’s too late for me but you could try if you want.

5: I was region locked only 28 days, during that time I tried so many times to read something with and without any vpn" Now it’s completely unlocked. Obviously I can access to the entire canadian catalog.

Now I’ve also upgraded my plan without a vpn to the last because password protection is not currently in Colombia and it works too, I can share my account with my family.

Hope this post will help you

Pricing (Colombian Peso)
Basic: 16,900 COP / month
Standard: 26,900 COP / month (extra member slots* can be added for 8,900 COP each / month)
Premium: 38,900 COP / month (extra member slots* can be added for 8,900 COP each / month)
Unfortunately, the password-sharing crackdown is already underway in Columbia, you just haven’t encountered it yet.

OK, curious to know what the difference is between choosing Colombia as opposed to Turkey when creating a cheaper account? Yes, the password crack down is not in Colombia just yet, but it will be in a few months or even weeks. Seems like Colombia Netflix is twice as expensive as Turkey. And you also get the 28 day region lock at least in your home country, Which could be a dealbreaker for most people. So you still get a partially working account for 28 days, And not as cheap. And BTW, the household is still completely optional, as of now, and newly accounts are not forced to choose a household yet.

I live in Asia. I used a VPN to subscribe to Netflix in Colombia. But when I tried to play an episode of a tv series without VPN…it says “Your account can’t be used in this location. For more info, go to help.netflix.com”

I know this means I can only access Netflix content with VPN but is there any way I can access from where I’m at without the VPN?

Currently netflix premium in turkey is 6,13 € so only 2 € less :slight_smile:

The first issue I encountered is that I was not able to connect or reset my password to my account. So i took a webpage which list cheapest netflix subscriptions on the web and I tried all the first rows until I found that Columbia works.

28 days region lock was a surprise for me, but yeah, it could be a dealbreaker. Obviously you can subscribe a regular subscription for only one month during that time and you will be worth it in 2 months.

You seems to be region locked for like one month, try again after this delay

I would like to understand this too. I want to watch in on TV, but won’t have any VPN on there.

My Turkish UHD Netflix was 4,44€ today. I’ve never paid 6€ for it.

10

So $8.78 in US dollars. That’s a significant price difference because Turkish premium is $5.25.

11

How did you get it unlocked?

12

Ok, that was the amount I found on the web, so it’s effectively cheaper to have a turkish subscription and that’s a good price, GJ to having it.
As I said, I personnaly wasn’t able to do any login or forgot password attempt with a location based in Turkey so this is sadly not an option for me.
But Colombia is still acceptable because I have a half price subscription than before, and I’m happy to make this work :slight_smile:

13

What’s the price in euro for the cheapest mode?

14

My premium is $19.99 in the US. The amount of users and devices is less than Turkey allows for $5

15

Automatically after 28 days

Oh sorry I should’ve specified I was saying in US dollars. Lol I will edit my comment
