When I first moved to New Zealand I thought I did my research properly and decided IPVanish was the best VPN for me in terms of price and functions.Īnd for the first few days, IPVanish unblocked BBC iPlayer for me reasonably well. There are tons of VPNs that will *temporarily* unblock BBC iPlayer. Best VPN to watch BBC iPlayer in New Zealand See also: The 6 Best VPNs for New Zealand.
I’ve been using ExpressVPN ($6.67/month) since April 2018 and have enjoyed access to BBC iPlayer, BT Sport, 4oD ITV Player and US Netflix with no buffering issues or other interruptions. ExpressVPN ($6.67/month) also frequently changes its UK servers’ IP addresses – engaging in a game of Cat and Mouse with the BBC – to combat its blacklisting strategy. The best way to combat this new strategy from the BBC is to buy a VPN that replaces its IP addresses as soon as they’re blacklisted.ĮxpressVPN ($6.67/month) is the best for this with over 385 different servers in the UK. Any of you who have been using a VPN to watch BBC iPlayer will have experienced this (since late 2017). The end result is users of VPNs being unable to access BBC iPlayer on an increasingly regular basis. This is a problem for VPNs as they share a relatively small number of servers (and IP addresses) with thousands of customers.Īt present, VPN servers are getting blacklisted (by the BBC) faster than they can create new servers. It now actively looks and blocks IP addresses that stream/download abnormal amounts of content from BBC iPlayer. The way the Beeb blacklists a VPN is pretty simple.
