How to access Sling TV outside the US?
Undoubtedly, Sling TV is the best service to watch/stream American channels. If you try to access any Sling TV media from outside the US, you will get the following error message:
“WE”RE SORRY. SLING TV IS ONLY AVAILABLE INSIDE THE US. THANK YOU FOR INTEREST.”
To bypass these restrictions, you need to install a VPN on your Firestick. VPN is always the safest option to avoid the geo-restriction on Sling TV or any other streaming service. Install a popular VPN and connect to the UK server to access the Sling TV channels. While talking about VPN, there are so many paid and free VPN services are available. But, the paid services will give you the option to access more locations along with enhanced protection measures. For our users, we recommend you to use NordVPN. You can download NordVPN from the default Amazon App Store.
