Then you need to lower your expectations.

Yes, true. I certainly have to lower my expectations regarding the Opera VPN service.
Have a nice day, I'm out.

And you could have asked it in your previous topic.
And it's not necessarily a flaw. Websites may have ways to find out that someone is accessing through a proxy or VPN.

Maybe I'm a little bit spoiled because I never had this problem before with other VPN service providers, but I expect top-notch quality from a VPN service, even if it's for free. A few minutes ago I used another VPN service provider and it did connect me immediately with "uitzendinggemist.nl".

When I have contact with the site, f.e. Kijk.nl

This site seems to use Flash and plugin content doesn't go through VPN. That's why plugins are set to 'click to play' when VPN is enabled.

Like I mentioned in an earlier post this is the first time I've encountered this problem. I've used many VPN service providers in the past and they all did work when trying to watch TV programs from "uitzendinggemist.nl".
I just tried to use another VPN service provider and got connected immediately.

I've made a thread about Opera's VPN service a few days ago. Not being able to solve the problem I'd like to contact the developers of Opera about a (possible) flaw in its VPN service without having to open a Twitter account. Any ideas?
I've used many VPN service providers in the run of the years (and still do) but have never encountered a likewise problem. To me it puts the reputation of Opera at stake.

Here is my previous thread about the (possible) flaw:

At the moment I'm abroad but sometimes I watch Dutch TV programs on "uitzendinggemist.nl". Some of these programs can only be seen in the Netherlands and then a VPN comes in handy. But despite my Opera VPN Virtual location is being set in the Netherlands I still get the message from "uitzendinggemist.nl" that I can't watch the program that I want to watch because of "geographical legal restrictions". Actually this is the first time I've ever encountered this problem using a VPN with a virtual location in the Netherlands. Rather disappointing and the question is: how come?

My answer: yes, I did.

Thanks for the replies. I'm now going to open a new thread about how I can contact the developers of Opera, without having to open a Twitter account, because I want to ask them about this situation which to me could be a flaw in the system.
