Price increases for the family plan in various countries.

YouTube Premium’s family plan just got more expensive

It now costs $5 more per month.

The Turkish option will be around £2.90 a month

I've just got the price increase email and thought it was a scam email - it's quite an increase.

I'm with Argentina and it's gone from a quid to £4.

I knew i should have got this sorted sooner..

I've got an India subscription, looks like it's gone up by 5 pence to £1.46 a month

I cannot believe how expensive it is for America and the UK. How they justify it being more expensive than every streaming package I never know

buy via India for 6 months for a few £. Otherwise not worth it.

That's exactly what I do, I just worry they'll eventually block it.
I've been doing this for a good few years

But do you then have to use a VPN via India to watch YT via Premium?

Currently no, I just use it normally. I just checked I've had it via India since March 2020
I can see they'll eventually change it to that I need to watch via VPN. My mate who lives in Gran Canaria was on my "Family" and he was removed repeatedly because he was in a different country from the "Family Manager"

I can see them cracking down on VPNs to buy packages.

I agree, and then they'll see a huge reduction in users.

Yep, indeed but the money they are losing they might be better off with less customers paying more.

Did you get an email about price hike too?

 

[Puzzled]

Might have to try the India route, number of ads at the moment is ridiculous. I'm not going to sit through 20 seconds of adverts to watch a 2 minute video.

Did you get an email about price hike too?

I went via Argentina, got the email today, price going from ARS 119.00/month to ARS 389.00/month - which is from 70p to about £2.28.

Now, do I cancel it to save 70p and go via India?

 

[djcj]

Does anyone know if it's possible to switch from an existing Argentinian package to an Indian one, as i'm thinking of emigrating

Edit: My email states my price is going from ARS 179.00/month to ARS 699.00/month. I'm not sure why mine has gone up to a different price to others?

Personally, not worth the effort for me. I watch a hell of a lot of content on Youtube, so a couple of quid for premium is still a good deal.

I see youtube are restricting certain high resolution formats to premium only.

That would save a lot of data and probably a wise move.
