Don't know why I bother said:
I hope those watching via Youtube yesterday have a VPN installed. A recent European court case makes it illegal to watch streamed copyright material. If they ask Youtube for all IP address connected to the content I'm sure they would oblige.

More than the 700+ people watching yesterday? There is a huge clamp down ongoing from Sky. Probably worst case you'll get a letter from your ISP but it's something to think about in future.

Can't see how they'd be able to enforce that on a wider scale. A lot of people don't have a clue who has the rights to what.

I tried to login on my ipad whilst still logged in on laptop, but it detected I was logged in elsewhere and chucked me out, so I'm guessing that might not work...

Yeah I just signed in on Chrome, had to switch to Safari as it had my bank details in and when I had them both open it kicked me out of Chrome, then when I logged back in it kicked me out of Safari. So even the same PC it won’t let you.

You could try a private YouTube stream or another screen sharing app lile TeamViewer, but I dunno what the frame rate/quality would be like.

Which VPN do people use for this? I used to use one of the chrome extensions (hola (?)) but it seems hit and miss nowadays.

Are they still doing the £5 a match option? I can't see it. I'd like to give it a try before I plunge to spending £110.

Match Centre equates to the 'Fixtures' button via the app

Managed to get it work by adding payment details to account so it remembered them rather than entering individually.

Thanks apparently you can't buy a pass on the app so had to use browser on phone. All purchased so can now sit on the beach and watch the match.

Have spent a frustrating first half trying to get in. Keeps asking me to sign in and when I do, asking me again!
Seems I haven't missed much though

First impressions of using it abroad is pretty good.

Things that let it down are not seeing your match pass in your account and not being able to buy them on the app

But main one is Sound quality and sync are the main issues for me. Sound was a few seconds behind as seam to lose the sync. Restarted the app a few times but kept happening.

But for €6 when on hoilday isn't too bad.

Hi all - can anyone help?

I'm a London fan. I watched the last game on ifollow (I siggned up using VPN and using UUK credit card. Appears to have gone through ok)

So I watched on my decent spec android box and again hid IP behind VPN. The game showed but:

  1. I kept losing the picture every so often (in intervals between 5 and 40 mins) - lost picture about 5 times overall
  2. On each occasion I got an error message saying 'Invalid parameter'
  3. Each time this happened, my account 'locked' - I was unable to access any premium video content, saying that I needed to 'upgrade my account' to access! This would be the same if I logged off and signed back in. The only way around it was to delete the whole app, download it again and then sign back in.
Has anyone had this happen to them? Or has anyone got any idea why it might be happening?? Appreciate any help.

(also, does anyone know if you can watch the live stream on multiple devices at the same time??)

I haven't heard of this happening to any overseas subscribers. I guess it may be something to do with using a VPN. My subscription has worked perfectly.. Added benefit is not having to listen to Clive Squeakin.
