Leaving the States was painful in many ways, but one of the most
heart wrenching for some was the loss of a constant companion, dear friend, and
faithful provider...Netflix. Tears were shed, subscriptions were canceled, and
many ex-pats were only left with fond memories and all too short holiday
visits.
But those days are no more! Now you can spend your Valentines
night snuggled up with some Netflix.
A new company, Hola, is attempting to speed up the internet. They
haven't really succeeded yet, but a side effect is Netflix, Hulu, and US
content streaming sites are now available in Israel. This site is Free and you
don't have to deal with those proxy-servers that don't really work. Go to www.hola.org download their thing, and get out of the
dark ages.

Yes, Hola works and unblocks Netflix but the problem is payment. You cannot pay the subscription using an Israeli Credit Card or PayPal in Israel.
ReplyDeleteI tries the PayPal option and the payment was cancelled because Netflix only accepts $US.
True for some Israeli cards, but if you have an American Express card in Israel you can use that to create your Netflix account.
