I've got Netflix on the mobile. Will it work in Europe?

Yes.

Well - mine worked in the US. It even said 'Hi molgrips, it looks like you are in the USA. Be aware that your selection of programmes might be different' so it looks like they are catering for travellers.

Depends where your going in Europe, Netflix isnt available in France so won't work natively.
You'll need to use a different dns or VPN or some other way of viewing Netflix abroad.

I'm off to Germany via Holland, returning via France

I realise this is a daft route.

I think you must have done something wrong!

My UK subscription works fine in Australia using unblock-us.com

I have a Canadian Netflix account and can use a British or US VPN to access UK or US content.

Someone on here told me to download the hola extension in google chrome. It worked a treat.

Edit, just read you said on mobile. Depends if you can fool the mobile into thinking you're in a Netflix country. I don't know why, but France doesn't have Netflix at present.

Install [url= https://hola.org/ ]Hola[/url] on your device and while you're away you can use it to tell Netflix that you're still in the UK. You can also use it (either while you're away or from home) to tell it you're in the US, Canada, or any other place where Netflix is available, and you can use your normal login details to access the shows on that particular network. As molgrips mentioned, the selection of shows varies from region to region.

Just installed Hola on my Android phone and discovered the joys of US Netflix. Now got seven series of The West Wing to wade through. Is this as bad as pirating? Can I expect an imminent visit by the CIA?

Oh yes it does!

Netflix will work fine over here - I was using it on Sunday. As said, the selection will be somewhat different to the UK.

Are you on vacation? if yes do you really need Netflix? Maybe go and see local attractions, drink wine in bars etc.
If you insist on watching tv and netflix don't work install filmon for tv channels. Works in Wifi well.
