I made use of Urban VPN * – which is free on Chrome. See instructions below, took me a few minutes.
Instructions:
1. Activate a VPN located in Argentina
Connect to a server in Argentina using your VPN provider – (HolaVPN, Tunnelbear, UrbanVPN etc).
2. Go to the official Plex website
Go to plex.tv * and click on your profile icon (top right corner), then select “Account Settings.”
3. Click on “Become a Premium Member.”
In the subscriptions section, click the option to become a premium member.
4. Select the Lifetime option (39483ARS)
This is the reduced price that appears when the website detects that you are in Argentina.
FOLLOW THESE REMAINING STEPS EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED:
5. Enter Payment Details
Fill out the form with your credit card. Make sure you select CAD as the Country at this stage and Canadian Postal Address (Don’t worry if the price is displayed in CAD – there is a trick to follow next).
6. Check the captcha
Complete the first captcha that will normally appear in the bottom right.
7. Click on “Continue to Summary”
A second captcha will appear – It is important here that you DO NOT confirm this captcha yet.
8. Change the country back to Argentina
Change the billing country back to Argentina on the payment form with Postal Code 23400 and the price in CAD will change to ARS.
9. Confirm the final captcha
Once the country is configured correctly, complete the captcha and continue with the payment process. Once it is all paid for, use as normal without VPN.
What is Plex?
Plex is a platform that lets you organise, stream, and access your personal media (movies, TV shows, music) from a computer or server, and also offers free, ad-supported streaming of movies, TV shows, and live TV channels
This allows you to put all of your favourite TV shows, movies, music that you’ve ripped onto your computer, server or NAS and stream them from anywhere in your house – just like Netflix, but you own everything that you put onto it. This makes managing media and sharing so much easier.
With Plex Pass, you get the following extra benefits:
– Activate/unlock our Android and iOS mobile apps simply by signing into your Plex account within the app.
– Access to Plex Dash (a Plex Labs app)
– Skip Credits in your personal library.

– Add lyrics from LyricFind to your music libraries to follow along whenever you want.
– Invite full Plex accounts (not just managed users) of family members to be a part of your Plex Home, allowing easy switching between accounts, and restrict what content you share from your server.
– Premium music features in Plexamp, like Sonic Analysis, Sonic Sage, Guest DJ, Track & Album Radio, Artist & Album Mix Builders, and more.
– HDR to SDR tone mapping * when transcoding, to help preserve colors for playback.

Removing Playback Limitations from Mobile Apps
As mentioned above, our mobile apps offer in-app purchases that activate/unlock the app to remove playback limitations when streaming from a Plex Media Server:
– Android and iOS mobile apps offer one-time, in-app purchases.
– Again, a Plex Pass subscription will activate these features without additional purchase.
