VPN required, worked with exitlag Brazil server.
Not as cheap as Nigeria @ AU$0.79, and it's around $6.50 ongoing… But thought I'd post in case that deal dies.
Worked with Mastercard, AMEX gave an error
Note there's other countries cheaper than Nigeria if you can confirm student status. Colombia is cheapest, ~US$1.92/mo ongoing for student plan, but haven't tested it. The 60 days is COL$2999 (A$1.17), then student pricing COL$7499 (AU$2.92). It's currently the cheapest option over the ongoing ~$4/mo Nigeria pricing (no student discount available).
It's VPN only required for starting the subscription, or for playback as well?
