As I found out on a recent trip to the US, having a foreign IP address isn't even enough to watch the game on iFollow... so I'm not even sure using a VPN to change the IP address would work. Though obviously I'd be happy to be proven wrong and you're welcome to try. As I understand it, it is the bank account that pays for the iFollow subscription which must be from a foreign bank as well as the IP address. Pain in the a*se!


It's about what country you register an account in and not where you are when you use it. If you use a VPN to make an account and pay for it then I'm sure it works anywhere.

Try signing up for a new iFollow account and use a VPN to purchase a match pass. Worked for me to watch a Saturday game earlier in the season. However you can only do that once because once you've used a UK bank account to pay for a match pass in another country they put a blocker on the account.


You may be able to get round that if you use paypal in US$, even then they will know your address from patpal? Worth a try though?



If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.
