I was also was considering the problem might be that before i got my nook i registered my B&N account WITHOUT using a VPN connection and now somehow they know i'm not in the US despite using VPN. If that were the case i was thinking about de-registering my nook and B&N account and make new ones, this time using hotspotshield since the begining of the process. I'll appreciate if you tell me what you think.
As long as you have registered your account with an US billing address a non-US credit card should work fine. I do not think how you registered your B&N account does matter.
I assume you understand that you need to buy the books from the B&N website on your PC with the VPN active, not using the shop function of your Nook?

I recently had a problem with my credit card suddenly not being accepted. I finally solved that problem by deregistering my Nook, changing the e-mail address of my account (new gmail address), and registering the Nook again to the new e-mail address. I used the VPN when changing the e-mail address.
I have no idea what caused this problem. And I do not know if changing the e-mail address was really necessary. Perhaps reregistering the Nook would have been enough.
I have decided to use the VPN every time I login to my B&N account, not just when I am buying books, just in case that was the cause of my problem.
