Re: Using Netflix in Thailand

I use Netflix here on top of my satellite TV for even more streamed and on demand content. I can't understand why they don't offer it in more countries. It's totally streamed content requiring no support presence locally and payment can be set up in many ways including credit card. They offer it in Australia, New Zealand and a lot of Europe. There must be licensing or government regulations that keep them from offering it in places like Thailand. It's a great service and costs only a flat rate of $7.99 per month and they have an app for just about every internet connected device so you can watch on or download to anything that is connected. If you watch one movie per month, you've got your money's worth.

I use a VPN router which allows us to have a Roku box in every room with a TV and get Netflix, Amazon and many other streaming video viewing software.. Pay a monthly fee on my credit card and have full access to netflix...RoKu has no fees after purchase.... That and my slingbox and I have everything I could possibly want to watch or see.... Great setup for my needs, with the new 3BB fiber I run at great speeds....

Which ISP do you use? I've used 3BB and True and both of them have throttled VPN traffic so much as to be unusable for streaming.

If you're a TrueVisions subscriber you can download the TrueVisions Anywhere TV app from iTunes and watch tv and movies, I guess it's similar to Netflix.

Cartoon HD is back up and running I have just realised you can access Netflix through it question is can you log into Cartoon HD in Thailand. Does anyone have an existing Netflix account that could test this for me.

It appears Netflix is now in Thailand. Mrs m got something from a friend and asked me for our account sign in. We have an account in the states and never cancelled it since my kids sponge off it.

I told her that Netflix isn't available here in Thailand. She replied that her friend said it was. My reply was, "Sure sweetie, the same Thai friends that give you all that other reliable info" but gave her the log in.

Two minutes later she showed me a movie playing :oops: :oops:

Two separate companies. I don't know where Iflix is based. Netflix is US.

https://www.netflix.com/th/

EDIT; Just found that Iflix is a Malaysian private company. Netflix is a public company traded on the NASDAQ at $117.68 per share as of today.
