Geo-blocking tip

Official free broadcasters are usually limited to viewers inside their own country. If you are abroad, use a VPN to switch to that country before opening the broadcaster site, then create any required free account.

If a signup asks for a local postcode, use a valid public postcode for that country, for example London SW1A 1AA for UK services. See the VPN guide for setup notes.
