I used to surf Shopee and hotel staff helped me buy. But since a few days I get blocked "Shopee app not available in your country."

 

Changing my Play Store address would mean changing my Google address and shifting it out of EU could be bad for my medical insurance etc. You can also only change it once yearly.

 

The advice using VPN is meaningless. I am already surfing on Thai True phone.

 

How can I access the Shopee links appearing in Google? I can see the content for a split second and then it's blocked.

Use the phone app. Change the region in the settings in your phone. Download the app. 

 

Makes sense. After all, the only European countries that Shopee operates in are Poland and Spain...

I managed to download the app from Playstore but it doesn't help since it crashes for unknown reasons.

 

Thanks for VPN suggestion, surprisingly it may sometimes help to go from neighboring countries and not straight from my Thai nbr! I havent checked yet if the stores are chosen from KL and I must wait for freight. Prices are in Ringit.

 

But if I just get a screenshot I can maybe ask Thai person to image search it in their Shopee app.

 

Laptop is also useful.

It is also impossible to fool Google Play by using VPN etc.

It's possible,  but before using the VPN you must delete all data in your playstore app (in android, go to settings > apps > playstore > storage).

I have done it recently.

Well, I don't use shopee but understand the problem with playstore location (been there, done that). I keep my android phone(with Sim for Thai number) located in Thailand and I use an old apple (iPhone) located in America (app store). You don't need a Sim in the apple for it to work - you are only using the platform that is located in a different country (in my case America) I do this for banking purposes because my bank in America would update every year and I needed a playstore/app store located in America. I only use the apple for banking (which only gets turned on 2 or 3 times a month) and my android for everything else. In your case you could use the apple for shopee in Thailand. Should work

I've been using Shopee for 7 years by loging in on a web browser with no problem.

 

In fact my last purchase arrived 2 days ago.

 

Can't use a phone app as my Apple ID is associated with Australia

Did you know you can get more than one Apple ID?

I always log in with my phone number. No problem

Of course. Not interested in multiple ID"s.

 

Happy to use the web version of Shopee
