Become a developer (Free) install Dev Preview App, Update to 8.1.1

Read the forums, there are literally hundreds of threads explaining how

All it really does is add an animated circle to Bing voice search in the UK. We don't get all the US Bing features you may have heard about.

Thanks guys but I really want Cortana but don't want to harm my device but is there anything else I can do

We may not get all of the features yet, but its worth adding.

-VPN now works with IPSEC.
-Cortana is great for setting notifications, I love location based ones
-Tile folders are great for tidying up your screen.
-Quiet time.... No more emails in the middle of the night beeping!

It's worth updating!

You can set your Region/Country - Speech and Language settings all to USA, that will enable Cortana too

Make sure you change all 3

Is there away to get Cortana uk if you live on a different country? I have done the same thing to get the us one. But I still can't get the UK Cortana

There is no uk Cortana without preview for developer !

I had the preview on my HTC 8X, Lumia 920 and now on my Lumia 930. No problems at all.
All you need to do is install the app, sign in, accept the terms and check for updates.
The terms say you can't go back once you update, but if you're using a Lumia, there is the Nokia recovery tool. Not that you will want to go back!

That's why I couldn't get it. I was on preview but I went back to 8.0 to download cyan.
