I have tried unsuccessfully to get DAZN to work with a VPN numerous times. I have ExpressVPN by the way. Even turning on the VPN to a different Canadian city (when I have a Canadian account), causes it to not work. I get a message saying "Dazn is currently unavailable in your country". I've tried multiple servers and none have every worked. So I wouldn't suggest going this route.
Alternatively you can use "BCE Premium TV" live sports streaming services. We are using it for a while and we are completely satisfied. They have 100+ premium sports HD channels ( Sky Sports, BT Sport, beIN Sports, ... ) all in one package with only $20/monthly or $85/yearly.

I made a Canadian iTunes account and added $25 Canadian via iTunes voucher code. It let me get an active subscription but when I went to play content via ExpressVPN it wouldn’t play and said “sign in” or “finish signing up” - then I messed it up - don’t do this - I tried a USA location and it let me sign in and play the content - but it was only boxing. I went back to Canada location and now it says I can only use the account for USA content - aaaargh.
TLDR. don’t access any other countries using your new DAZN account or it will lock you to it.
I've had some success using NordVPN in Canada to access the German and Austrian DAZN. It's trial and error as some IP's used by Nord are known by DAZN to be VPN's and are blocked, but many still work fine. No decrease in stream quality/latency. It's German commentators though lol, but still better than nothing
no way, tried with but is not working. still in search of the right VPN possibly free or cheap. We can say that, by today, following the indications here, the following VPN doesn't work anymore for DAZN Canada:
If you knew others let's put in the list. I'll update it soon with new. Ciao
YES - It worked thx! I'm watching live with ffwd/rew/pause capability and can also watch past games, using BBC
BTW AVIRA VPN does not work (60 days free). BBC still complained.
NordVPN does (30 days $15 with option for $ back cancellation)
Yep, I'm in Florida right now. Last year ExpressVPN+private browser worked. Now it appears DAZN has blocked all known ExpressVPN IP addresses.
I already switched to Fubo for EPL and if it wasn't for CL/EL I would have left crappy DAZN already.
Some VPNs may work if they switch IPs often enough but really, we shouldn't have to go through this garbage to access a service we pay for. It's not like they couldn't restrict my account to Canadian content regardless of my source IP.
On top of that, now every highlight has what, 3 or 4 ads to start. Just gross.
From what I have read, not all VPN services work with all regions. I was thinking about getting ExpressVPN and signing up for DAZN in Canada, since they offer the Premier League and so many other Futbol leagues as well as NFL Game Pass. I'm interested in Using Germany DAZN for MLB games. I hope it works once I switch VPNs from country to country. For now, it looks like Windscribe covers all DAZN regions but I have not heard of this VPN.
Sorry to hear it. As a Canadian fan, I guess I assumed we were getting the worse deal since football is niche here, but you're right, those fees are eye-watering no matter how good the coverage might be.
I wish I could help with UK specific advice re: VPNs. I experimented a bit with trying NordVPN to see other countries' Netflix catalogues and it worked OK. I'd have to periodically reset the VPN though as it would stop working; it seemed like Netflix was able to detect it over time, but then I'd switch to a different server in the same country and it would work again. It was cheap, but I ended up cancelling it. It was easy to cancel, no hassle.
I'm not connected in any way with NordVPN and don't know if any of my experiences are typical.
Hope you find something that works. I get that the clubs and the league have to be profitable and the sport is extremely expensive at this level, but it shouldn't be a financial hardship to watch your boys play.
For work reasons I have a completely stabilized and reliable network setup along with a gigabit Bell fibre connection. I use a lot of streaming services (don't have regular TV) and have no issues with DAZN, ever, so this is likely a problem on your end I'm afraid.
I'd start by hardwiring your TV/device if you can. Also check the bandwidth and latency on your connection with fast.com. The Netflix network test on your device could be useful too. If everything in your house is good, it's also possible you have interference from neighbours, or even a problem with your provider - I have seen both.
As an aside, what I do have problems with is the functionality of the DAZN app on Android TV. It lacks a few features that would make it great and they rub that in by running ads showing the mobile version which seems to get lots of love.
Yup. ExpressVPN. I just get the "we are experiencing difficulties at the moment. Please try again" view. Doesn't matter how often I reload. Doesn't matter if I reconnect to another server in Canada, same problem.
I think they've caught on :(
I purchased a uk subscription for £1.99 per month and the I use NordVPN and set it to canada and I get all the EPL etc Set the vpn to Germany and get the motogp Set it to Spain and get the new DAZN f1 channel
It's a bargain
Hi there :)
The people being StreamLocator actually started the whole SmartDNS service approx 10 years ago with but sold it to IPVANISH. When they realised that SmartDNS wasn’t enough for some services (think Netflix etc)
Why would you think StreamLocator would get shut down? It’s no different to say ExpressVPN (bar the fact StreamLocator doesn’t suffer from a drop in speed etc)
It uses the lightest possible touch - any changes DAZN make - we can make instantly and push them to the hub.
But look at it from a business point of view - as long as DAZN appear to be doing something about VPN’s - I mean how many posts have you seen on this subreddit saying my vpn no longer works etc. Then generally they say job done. Company has been going a lot longer than 8 months and nobody has missed a single DAZN match
Due to the technology we use. It would be very hard for DAZN to block us - even if they did we would implement a way around that - push it to StreamLocator hubs without the person even knowing there was an issue.
Yer, NordVPN was working brilliantly for a few months and then within the last 3 weeks it doesn’t work. I can tell you the other 2 but DM me and I’ll let you know. Not best putting it on here because people don’t like that
New message for me. The last week. When I am trying to access using ExpressVPN, I get an error saying that I am not able to access from a country’s different from where I setup the account. So when I am across the border in Toronto I am getting the same message. When I am in Buffalo it lets me sign in. So this may not be an ExpressVPN issue. They may have chosen to block accounts in another way.
PROBLEM SOLVED
DAZN 1.69 I've used
Although when it loads it says not available in this country, there are 2 boxes
Click either one to take you to the subscription
Put your details in and it comes up with email address already in use, do you want to sign in
Click yes and loads perfectly
UK resident, using NordVPN on firetv
NordVPN user here, my VPN access works on PC and smartphone, but not on the SmartTV. Same IP (router with VPN) but only working on my non-TV devices. Error message is slightly different (65_000_404) but I guess it's the same.
It's so much better than that pic suggests too. Yeah ExpressVPN, I jumped on their 15 months for 12 promo last month. Don't know if it's still on. Can switch between Canada and Germany and watch the FA Cup games too (albeit with German commentary.)
Hi and sorry to just drop in but I was hoping someone might be able to help. I am using Ironsocket and it's great however I can't get Dazn Canada to work on the Fire stick it keeps telling me I need to restart the app and refresh the content (Error Code 65-003-403) Does anyone else use a Firestick and does it work fro them?
Thanks in advance
I have some good vpn servers that offer dazn but none of them works for dazn germany on pc
