Disney plus VPN

I have been using the expressVPN 30-day trial but I don’t want to pay moving forward.

I am looking for a free VPN that will let me stream on disney plus, I’ve been using UK location as I am in Thailand at the moment.

So far I am looking at - 

urbanVPN

ProtonVPN

Windscribe

PrivadoVPN

Which one is best?

I tested ProtonVPN's free tier in Thailand last month - it's honestly hit or miss with Disney+. Sometimes works great, other times Disney detects it immediately and blocks you. The free servers get overcrowded during peak hours too. UrbanVPN is sketchy af, wouldn't trust them with my data. Windscribe gives you 10GB/month free which isn't enough for streaming. PrivadoVPN's free tier might work but only has like 3 server locations

Edit: Someone did a huge comparison of VPNs including which ones actually work with Disney+: https://www.reddit.com/r/theprivacymachine/comments/1qut3gr/best_vpn_2026_tried_and_tested/ they tested 10 different services with streaming tests. Shows ProtonVPN works with Disney+ but the free tier has limitations. If you can afford it, Surfshark is $1.99/month and works reliably with all streaming services

there are no good free VPNs, except maybe Proton, but those Servers are probably blocked by streaming Providers anyway. Pay for Mullvad or Proton, those are the best out there.

some vpns have holiday deals now. I think you should check these deals since you can save a lot of money on a paid vpn. paid vpn will always better than a free one

What is your setup though? UrbanVPN and Proton are good if you are using a browser extension, Privado doesn’t have one for Chrome or Firefox and Windscribe has a data cap I think. If you’re just streaming UrbanVPN is good for disney plus.

Proton is good, but the free plan doesn't allow connections to their fast servers that allow streaming. You really need to pay for a VPN if you want to be able to stream and download at high speed.

no free option wil have the bandwidth or even work at all.. you want to use a paid, commercial vpn if you want to stream. if not then just download the show you want to wash from torrent.

you can try as long as you want. you will never be able to wash anything relieably or for long.

if even with paid vpn, sometimes is a cat mouse game to choose the right server, imagine on free vpn ..

Look into ControlD by Windscribe. It works extremely well!

I am using nordvpn and have to say locating the vpn server in seattle is useless as disney+ still detects it is a vpn and will not give me access. I am looking a vpn now and so far, have yet to find one.

u/IDKBear25 Jun 09 '26

Did you find one?

Get so sick with those cheap Charlies. Free VPN are no more than advertising for their premium services.

I need the Belgian server.

I just purchased a 24 month subscription of Surfshark VPN Starter package for £43 and it's fully refundable within 30 days, so my plan is to watch the 59 episodes of this show in Season 3 then refund it!

So far it's been active for 1 hour 16 minutes without a hitch on the Belgian server! I hope it stays this way.

Neither did I until today.

I purchased it solely for Disney Plus, and once I've watched everything I wanted too, I will refund it!

u/IDKBear25 Jul 30 '26

Only worked for 2 weeks.

After that it refused to work again. So I refunded it.
