Sadly not. I've been using my corportate vpn to access netflix.
It seems most of the US TV network streams wised up too and blocked them. I've reverted to bittorrent again.

Have you tried softether? Not sure if the vpn's on that list are blocked.

I'm in Canada and I just started using Express VPN to access US Netflix. Works fine but it a bit costly ($13 USD/ month or $99/year)

Depending on how much you stream and what your technical skills are like you could get yourself a low end VPS box for about $15 a year, setup OpenVPN or a SOCKS5 proxy and do it that way. You will need the relevant client software on your computer, it's what I do so I can watch things like BBC Iplayer while I am abroad.. although that doesn't matter much since they killed Top Gear.
Like I said you will need some technical skills such as Linux, although it could be done by following a few guides online, is there a desire for this kind of thing, I could potentially put something together?

On a side note, it's great for language study.
I hook up the VPN to watch Japanese netflix to keep my listening sharp. Words I don't know let me pause and look them up since they have subitles as well.

I have Express VPN set up on my router, but when I try to use Netflix on my Smart TV here in Mexico it say's its blocked because of the VPN. Mexican Netflix sucks.

Free VPN provider ProXPN still works for me to watch US Netflix in Poland.
A little grainy, but you can pay to get better bandwidth.

Think that would work for amazon prime also?
Most likely. Using a VPN makes it seem like you're in the US.
As I understand, the only way for providers like Netflix and Amazon Prime to block these VPNs is to block the individual US IP addresses of them, which requires them to identify and know which of the massive combinations of US IP addresses are US-based VPNs.
