I have a VPN service and can I use it to access BBC iplayer content especially because it asks whether I have a tv license and since I do not, can I get caught or fined ? I am not British or anywhere near the UK?
You can. Just choose England as VPN location. when the system asks you. Do you have license ? Click yes. After it you can watch from BBC Iplayer.
LOL, when I first tried BBC player it asked me if I had a license and I replied no then it denied me. I then tried again and when it asked I said yes… . OK, welcome and view away. So far in the last couple of years I’ve been using it with a VPN I haven’t received one of the 41 million warning letters they’ve mailed to British citizens nor have the TV police driven to my house in the US and told me to stop.
They should offer BBC without someone going through these hoops!
I don’t think they can fine you lol you’re good
Dude you literally just say yes and give them a burner email address…they don’t ask for your home address or any personal details
I’m a UK expat, the best way for UK free to air is a smart DNS service with a fire tv Stick. Setup the fire tv as a UK account, do the smart DNS settings and bbc itv and four/five etc work perfectly. Due to the time difference here Cath up is much more useful than IPTV.
i get a “something went wrong loading the programme” popup for anything on it, with or without vpn.
Lol. This one’s hilarious. On my way to do the same.
You can pay for britbox subscription?
I haven’t used the app in a month and I just received the same thing. I tried the app on my TV and it did the same.
EDIT: I changed browsers and moved from London to Manchester and it worked. My wife likes Manchester but I’m a London guy and find the Manchester people a little uppity. 
i’m using it on my firetv app, not a browser.
I think my problem was Chrome was saving my location because when I switched to the generic Samsung browser which I never use, there were was nothing saved. 8 don’t know a thing about the fire tv app, can you wipe the cache and data on an app?
