    This is taken from a post from Danger781 in this post.
    All thanks should go there.
    1. Accessing the Play Store
    Since the Play Store isn't available in Ireland yet, you're going to need to order from the UK store. That's your first problem - They don't access Irish IP addresses. You have a few options here but the easiest one I found was to use Tunnel Bear. (http://www.tunnelbear.com/). Basically this allows you to act like you have a UK IP so you can access the store.

    2. Gmail account
    I used my own personal Gmail address that I've been using for years. In my account settings (https://wallet.google.com/manage/settings) I have my own personal address and phone number listed in there, and my real name.

    3. Parcel Motel
    Parcel Motel (http://www.parcelmotel.com) is the service I used to have the phone delivered to me. Register on their website and you get two free stays with them. Register with them and understand how it works using their delivery address.

    4. Payment
    You're going to want to add a new payment method to your Google Wallet. Click 'Add debit or Credit card' under payment methods. You need to register this as a UK card using the Parcel Motel Belfast address and post code.

    On the final section of payment both my shipping and billing address were set to the Parcel Motel address.

    Also note, I paid with a credit card.

    5. Your bank
    Not sure how important this step is but I rang my bank to ask them to add the Parcel Motel address to my list of allowed billing addresses. I've seen some peoples orders getting through without doing this - but I felt I was better safe than sorry.

    [2014-Q1 Update]
    Irish users can now order directly from the play store, so i'm unsticky'ing this.
