USA Netflix not working

Hi,

In response to the mail I sent earlier, I have VPN installed on my Windows 7 professional laptop, my iPhone 6 and Mac OS Big Sur.  These devices are were I watch Netflix.

My VPN is set to USA, Jacksonville on my iPhone and Windows devices.  If I reinstall AVG VPN on those devices, will thank solve the problem?

Hi, Bie.

Thank you for posting in the community forum.
Are you facing this issue with all your devices? 
Please try to change the location and check for the issue status.
Keep us posted.

All devices are working as normal. A few weeks ago I downloaded a US program a few weeks ago 'Beauty & the Beast' on my iPhone 6.
When I sought to view it, I get an error "Error. This title is not available to watch in your area. (2204)"
Vpn is still set to 'USA Jacksonville' and status is green.

Thank you for writing back to us, Bie.

Regrettably, certain streaming services have taken counter measures to block their users from accessing their content through Secure VPN servers.
While we do continue to add new servers and ip addresses, they are quite fast to identify the same.
However, you can try connecting to streaming servers (locations) that are available in Secure VPN & check.
Thank you for your understanding in advance!

The other North America locations listed do no provide any option to view US based content.
When will AVG update their locations to make this possible?

Bie, as we've informed in our previous posts, Netflix will not allow it's users to access it's content via secure VPN servers.
Hence, you cannot access other countries' media content, even when you're connected to that country's VPN server.
Let us know if you have further queries.
