BBC iPlayer and Hulu - how to watch in Singapore?

Post by Josephine_k » Sun, 07 Apr 2013 12:01 pm

Dear all,

I have moved to SG in January and missing Hulu and BBC iPlayer.
Anyone has good suggestion for VPN to watch them in Singapore?

Thanks all and wish you all a nice weekend

I wonder why she is still posting from Hong Kong IP address then? Sounds like a spammer to me. She WAS just limbering up, I guess. :P

hi Josephine_k, it's better you try different vpns and pick the one that works well for you as it depends on your network as well, usually should work if you are with singtel broadband.

I have been using URADODAsia dot com for a few months. It works well for me. It covers BBC, ITV, Hulu etc. You may consider the 10-day free trial and test it with you computer.

Before that, I used vpngates which later wasn't that well. You can also google search and there are some other choices, but not all of them have trial.

I think it's important to try before committing to one. let me know how it goes.

Well, her alter-ego just replied. Both on the same HK ISP. Kinda makes you wonder, yeah? Anyway, please way bye-bye to both of them...

It's funny when they've been called on their first post, and yet they are still unable to help themselves but follow their double-act plan through. It's about as subtle as walking naked down Orchard Road.



p.s. BTW you deleted the spammers, but left their spam/link ... ?
