Cable Forum - What have you just bought?

I still think just choosing 1 server and the unlimited offer with Windscribe is hard to beat $2 a month paid monthly so you do not notice it coming out the bank

No you just need basic Topcashback and then wait for the offers by visiting HotUKDeals alot like I do.

Re: Nord. The offers on tcb and Quidco are for new subscribers. Will you be taking up the offers on Nord when renewing?

Primarily I needed Nord for Formula 1 TV Pro to watch the races live and I knew this VPN worked as alot don't is why I went for it.

If I am honest I didn't really notice it coming out my bank but I know everyones circumstances are different. I've got until June 2026 before my Nord expires to look at alternatives that give me the servers I would need like Nigeria, Argentina, Columbia etc.

Very likely because it works with everything I've used it for without issue.

Technically a New subscriber is likely someone's existing sub that's expired, if that doesn't work I'd use the same Gmail email and place period somewhere in it as that email is then seen as a new email.

P.S Quidco currently do 95% off Nord.

Lol I used to live in Argentina for a Tidal subscription, then they stopped that because the payment method had to originate there, then I moved to Columbia and the sub costs me around £2.50 a month, Nigeria is cheap but can't be arsed to change.

I highly recommend a Revolut account, these virtual debit cards get around alot of payment issues.

Re: What have you just bought?

I wouldn't risk it. Nords too good of a product you want a ban from for violating terms. £65 is a bargain for 2 years 3 months. £30 a year.

Do you have flac on tidal?

I need to sort out my ID to get Revolut going.

On Saturday I got out the shower to blockage in my right ear. I know I shouldn't but I had to do something so I stuck an ear bud in to clear or move ear wax around which did relieve and clear the blockage. Now I'm on these ear drops for 3-4 days. I'll be treating both ears so 6-8 days one at a time.

Clear hearing is scary :LOL: I got frightened by the sound of my shorts brushing :shocked:

I need further treatment :banghead: Eustachian Tube Dysfunction

£4.49 in savers. My local pharmacy wanted £11.99 lol

If it doesn't clear after 2 weeks I need a GP appointment. I can't wait to frantically obtain an appointment at 8:30am :(

Beconase - good stuff, I used it for many years for hay Fever, before better tablets came along.
I still use it occasionally, and used it for my own (E) tubes the other year.

My GP won't allow that. It's strictly 8:30am or nothing. It's not a follow up neither so no chance of a doctor giving a callback :(
