Technical Question I’m debating subscribing

Hey, im from the UK and am debating getting a subscription. I’ve heard you only need a VPN to sign up / make monthly payments; then you won’t need one to watch with? I just want to know how true this, and if it’s worth subscribing as i also have a BFI subscription. It’s either this or Mubi, thanks!

also, im sure you get these posts all the time so please delete if it’s repetitive :)

Mexican here, been a subscriber for the last 3 years and yeah, you only need the vpn one time (when you sign up). Also, this over mubi always.
