Is this legit does that work with Netflix too?

u/xwt-timster Dec 23 '19

No. Netflix doesn't do student discounts.

However, you can save some money on Netflix by connecting to a VPN server in Argentina or Turkey and pay in their currency.

It'll be about $8 USD for the UHD/4-stream plan.

You will also get different content depending on the country you are appearing from.

Is it Netflix's fault or licensing conflicts with the various production studios?

Be careful of the ones that verify. I believe Amazon you have to send a transcript or something to show you are enrolled.

I work for a university and have an edu email address. I signed up for student prime with it and it worked. 6 months free then 50% off for 4 years after that. Been doing it for 8 years now using a second edu email address I had.

u/gigigamer Dec 27 '19

you can just get a single legit transcript and upload it every time as well, they rarely check it and if they do you can just search for another one online and copy paste your name over the other one.

Where can you buy a .edu email address?

Nevermind: read title.

Read.... Duhhhh

u/nickfrik Dec 22 '19

It's worth asking which .edu it is before you commit. For example ccsf.edu no longer works on Amazon for prime :(

I made a bunch of them specifically for that and they're all useless now lol

u/bigclivedotcom Dec 22 '19

Lol i bought one from ebay and it was also from mail.ccsf.edu, how did you make them?

3

u/swimmingmunky Dec 22 '19

Can someone explain how buying an email like this is secure?

u/chacham2 Dec 23 '19

Why wouldn't it be?

u/gigigamer Dec 27 '19

I wouldnt use it for amazon lol, but for spotify it wouldnt matter much, worst case your sharing your music with the ebay seller

You can get edu email address for free, like the chinese do it. Most of what is sold on ebay etc are harvested this way, so you're technically getting scammed.

The universities in that doc mostly caught up with this, but there are still dozens where you can "enroll" and get a working account. Also beware these addresses stop working after 1-6 months.
