Guys,
Have always used the method has above, turned on this morning to watch strictly, had a banner come up saying it was going to cost me $4.99 per month!!!! Don't seem to be able to get past the banner.
Anyway around it, or different way to access iPlayer to watch BBC?

you have to have a vpn but i found iplayer a problem and found you can watch most things on you tube without expiry dates

If you have the 5mb package from multmax do you automatically get access to iPlayer and ITV player?
I am currently with nerhouse, so swapping will gain me a VPN any other advantage?

Butterfly,
Another thing you get with mm is 10 channels to watch live. ie bbc 1,2 itv 1,2 news, channel 4,5. Yo
u do not need 5mb. You get this as part of their internet service. You can also access iplayers through them if you connect through the vpn that they offer. You will find how to access this on the website.
As Denise13 says though, you can also watch programmes you want on youtube.
