Did he fake his address?
He seriously emailed Hulu to ask about his South African credit card? Is your friend mildly retarded?
All the major streaming companies have taken steps against services that bypass regional restrictions. You need to be creative when it comes to paying for access, usually with false addresses, external payment providers etc.

It's a known thing with Hulu, just enter the details a couple of times until it accepts it.

I haven't asked the details about the address etc - but it has been working since registration last year. Just when his card expired and he entered the new details, it rejected it.
I'm guessing addresses were faked if it worked the first time

A bit nasty.
The assumption was it worked / accepted the first time with an SA card, there must be some other issue with the second.

Hulu have been doing this for ages now. They have always been the most strict. You have to use an entropay account.
If you had a local card that worked you were lucky.

I found that when I clicked submit a second time, it worked

My new ABSA Visa card gives the same issue - strangely enough - I've also found I can't use it on Takealot.

I subscribed about 2 months ago with FNB card and it went through first time. No issues.

Had a colleague saying the same thing when he tried to subscribe earlier this week.
I subbed about a year ago with my FNB card and had no hassles.

Spotify also full of carp like that
I don't understand why any South African would use Spotify. We have Simfy, Deezer, Apple Music and Google Play Music. Is there something magical about Spotify that I'm not aware of?
not lol @ using the great services our country have to offer.lol @ complaining about a service that you are not supposed to be using
