You're probably geo blocked and need a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to mask your country of origin.

Opera web browser has just included VPN for free - though I haven't used it as yet.
www.opera.com

Or you can subscribe elsewhere for a minimal yearly fee. There are regular VPN bargains posted on OB

    Stop using Hola. Read the links below on why.

works for me, I just tried it then.
I think it's pretty obvious what to do, see this picture. https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/30374/38890/hola.png
