Betfair Exchange from Abroad

Hi Guys
Please feel to delete the post if is irregular.
My girlfriend will be likely to get an offer to work in France in a roughly an year from now so means moving away from uk.
The Betfair platform is not a thing in France so was wondering by using a VPN will be possible to keep on trading using the UK platform associate to an UK bank account.If someone as done this before and could give some info/tips will be much appreciated
Have a great day

On the topic, I use geeks toy through nord VPN. Anyone know of a VPS I could use instead of VPN? I know bet angel offer their own VPS but it's expensive.

I was able to access Betfair/Bet Angel from Spain without even using a VPN or VPS! - just as if i was in UK

@Giorgio You can use a VPN but I've found it can run pretty slow and you need to remember to switch it on on whatever device you are using.
I use a couple of UK based virtual private servers to run some trading software and a bot I have. You can load windows software like Fairbot on them and they are pretty easy to set up (there was another thread recently about doing just that).
Once a VPS is set up you can access it easily via your mobile, tablet, laptop. If you want to do some time sensitive trading I'm guessing it might run a little slower than on your own PC but I may be wrong.
Key thing is to make sure your VPS has a UK (or Betfair legal) country IP address
