I tried the avast secureline 7 day trial in order to watch US netflix and it was all good and dandy and then i went ahead and purchased it and it doesn’t even update my netflix page to US netflix anymore, let alone playling movies
Unless you subscribe to a VPN provider that is built around streaming, you will always run into an issue where streaming does not work and you have to contact their support for help.
So if your goal is to stream Netflix or other services, look for a service who’s forte is streaming and not general VPN protections.
Last I checked Avast was just using Hide My Ass servers since they own AVG now, could be wrong. But would be a game of whack a mole, have you asked their support and/or got refund?.
