I actually thought if it could be because last time I did it, I was on BT, now I’m on Zzoomm, so I went to my parents who is on BT and tried it, didn’t work. What worked was going to Ukraine.

Has anyone tried doing it from a VM/instance hosted in that region instead of using a VPN?

I almost went for the yearly sub. Jeez, bullet dodged there. India is still my home from home.

£3.19 pm at current exchange rate for YT premium Family account via ukraine.
India/Turkey/Argentina all seem to be locked down to native cards since the start of june.

so im guessing that they are locking down all avenues on this now? is it getting towards the end of the road?

tbf i would pay to not have adverts but not @ £12 a month

Setup YT Premium via turkey many months ago using a VPN and a Halifax Debit card, without using a VPN I changed my cards info to a Natwest Debit Mastercard and without any issues and YT just billed me 94p for this month so it still works great for now.

aww i really hope this still works when my yearly sub ends...

For new applications...

Oh yes, I tried India too, didn't work.

Indonesia is £3 a month, perhaps that's the next tier should Ukraine falls...(not in the physical sense)

Thankfully my Turkey monthly is still working from my revolut. Had to move from India about 6 months ago.

malachi · 26 Jun 2023 at 09:34

India is still working for me but I pay it monthly.

I am not touching it now, my little attempt in trying to save a few quid going from Argentina to Turkey failed and now i am paying 70p more a month than before...I feel bad throwing away £9 a year lol

My upper limit would be a fiver a month for family as we do get a lot of use out of it but hopefully a lot of countries left to work through before we hit that.

S.A.S · 26 Jun 2023 at 14:40

I just wish they did an ad-free version for ~£5 a month or something, im not interested in the music or originals etc. i’ve tried looking into this VPn option but got very confused haha.

EDIT: ok so i just VPN to UKR and put card details in and it took it, im worried they gonna do me but ehh, we'll wait and see haa.

I'll add if it helps anyone else, i used ProtonVPN and Monzo virtual card

Rannoch · 27 Jun 2023 at 00:26

Connected using Nord via Ukraine. Paid with a Virtual Starling card and it worked. £3.21 for a family membership.
