yes, it would be good to know how they administer that. is it a residency check on your account details, a USA credit card prerequisite , or a geo check when you download each book ?

& without wishing to resurrect all 999 pages of the streaming & regions debate elsewhere, does the US amazon customer have to be in the US when they want to download a loan ?

I should be able to log in to my amazon.com account & then get the refused message...
yep.... welcome back, click the advert...We're sorry. Kindle Unlimited is currently only available for US customers. Please visit us again when it is available in your country. So I reckon it is an account details check - it sees my UK ship-to address & that's all it takes. (because it is saying " US customers" not " in your location" ).

PS From reading the UNOtelly support pages - you can outwit amazon re the USA Prime Videos service but you have to do 2 things: sign up to it via USA paypal or credit card, then also do the DNS trick. I shall give unotelly a few days then ask if they or other customers have a workaround for this new service.
