Pik TV while travelling in USA

[jarrod38]

Will Telus Pik TV work while travelling in the USA (yes we will have internet access while travelling)?

It would surprise me if it does. Optic on the Go is Canada only, as is Telus Wi-Fi calling. It would be nice, though. My guess is it is tied to distribution rights, not customer home address, so once you are connected to a non-Canadian IP address, you can't watch.

Thats kinda what i thought, can anyone confirm this that has tested it in the USA?

Hi Folks, 

Pik TV only works in Canada, the rights to play outside of Canada are not offered by the content studios.  The Pik mobile apps and STB will not work in the USA or anywhere else internationally.  

Within Canada, only content that is available for playback out of home will work.  Content that is only available in home will display with a triangle symbol & exclamation mark when not on home wifi at the Pik TV service address. 

thanks!
