Will my Telus TV+ app work in Europe?

We're going to Italy and Greece in April/May. During hockey playoffs. My husband is a big Canucks fan and they're doing amazing this year. I'm hoping to be able to use the Telus TV+ app to watch some games while we're there. Will this work?
  • Hi Jen19 , the TELUS TV+ app can only be used in Canada as TELUS and Optik TV only have content rights in Canada.

  • Ok, then get yourself a dongle to plug into a HDMI port of a big screen TV and Project the show from phone to the TV.

    Used to do that before TelusTV+ for prime etc.

      Exactly what I planned. Have an old chromecast I didn't think I'd need again. Glad I hung onto it.
  • Check your PC antivirus program. Norton 360 has VPN. Choose a location in Canada and watch the games.

      I won't have my laptop with me. I'll try getting a VPN on my phone. See if that works.

      What if I brought the android box with me. Would that pose the same problem?

        Yes. Same problem. It still needs a Canadian IP address to work. Easier to use a VPN on your phone or tablet than on the Android box.
