Hey see if netflix thinks you’re in mexico. Subscriptions services are sometimes cheaper if you sign up in other countries

This happened to me and it was insanely annoying because so much content is ‘blocked in your country’.
The fix is easy though, just logout of netflix from all devices and log back in.

I somehow got the best of both worlds and was able to sign up with Mexico netflix pricing but then when I was in the states it switched to U.S. content. I don’t know how to recreate this though.

It’s dependent on your IP Address. So, if you login to Netflix with a device that registers a public IP in the EEUU, you get US content until that login on that device times out and requires you to login again.
So, take your laptop to the states and logon to netflix, it’ll stay EEUU bound for as long as that session is allowed, regardless of whether you return to MX again.
