Ok so here is my dilemma, tried to sign up with Hulu behind a proxy, says cannot accept non US credit card (ABSA and Discovery)- given.
Tried via paypal, cannot accept non US credit card.
Tried via Entropay, then paypal - still cannot accept non US cc.

Anyone have an alternate solution?

Thanks in advance.
 
same with me too
i think someone mentioned that I should buy a voucher on ebay
 
Sign up for a US paypal account, use the entropay as a credit card when singing up.

Be sure to use your paypal account on the same day to register for Hulu.

Once you register on Hulu then you can just top up via gift vouchers.

Just note the Paypal will block your account within a week asking for social security number and credit card statements.

Did you use a US code that looks like your area code?
 
Sheesh what a mission, im up and running on Hulu now (if anyone wants the workaround I will gladly share it, they appear to have most of the banks blocked).
Anyhow cant seem to run off XBOX ONE (works 100% off pc on same network), even though changing Location and DNS - Ive heard that XBOX ONE is a problem so I changed DNS settings on my router, still not working - anyone have any other ideas - im about to go out and purchase amazon TV as ive heard this will work!

Please pm the details
 
I was the one to recommend the gift voucher from ebay. However, all the vouchers on ebay seem to have been taken down, so that is now out of the question! Ill try find another way round as my subscription ends soon, so I need to get another voucher. I'm sure Ill find some other places that sell it!
 
Well I did the following, you may find a short cut but i was gatvol and did as follows:

1. Sign up a new Itunes account in US - you cannot change your account to US as it will ask you for a US CC , you cannot even add a new account on the same machine as it will ask for US CC - im not sure what happens if you reinstall. So I used another pc installed iTunes and completed the US details with one of those fakeUS addresses.
2. Buy iTunes vouchers on http://www.wildtwig.com/
3. Load vouchers into iTunes and then purchase Hulu app via iTunes and sign in via iTunes - pay for the year (or whatever your choice with the vouchers - you get a free trial so you may skip to paying for it).
4. Use whatever other device with DNS settings set to the US - login with Hulu account from step 3.
