    Don't mind me asking but what card did you use with Curve?

    Revolut

    Revolut

    Sounds like a card inception - proxy over proxy :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,741 ✭✭✭Hococop


    Set my vpn to turkey, opened my youtube app, went to premium and it's 17 lira which seems right, do I just enter my revolute card and that's it?

    Set up the family, if applicable, before you pay.

    Not pushed on the family plan, just remembering someone saying to create a random address, but when I use the you tube app it just looks for payment as I'm using my main youtube account, is that right? As soon as I do that it's set up again?

    Edit: do I need to add turkish lira to my revolute account?

    You can use your main You Tube account.

    You do not need to add Turkish Lira to your Revolut account.

    Why did you use Turkey? Argentina is only about 1.13

    For some reason just remember some saying they never had issues setting up with turkey, I could be wrong, still happy at the price I got compared to the normal price

    I found them all the same to setup. Just had to find an address in each country from Google.

    Didn't need to enter an address, I had a vpn bought (surfshark) activated it in the app and went to my youtube app and just joined premium, I'm assuming that was ok?

    Once you paid the correct amount then happy days.
    As I think about it, I don't recall entering an address either.

    Great tip from OP and others. Just signed up for Argentina YouTube using Revolut. 1.60 per month, just used tunnelbear and a wework address.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,240 ✭✭✭Buddy Bubs


    Set this up in 3 mins following instructions in OP. Its a doddle. Starting to use youtube as a main viewing platform and the ads are a right pain.


    Indian youtube 4 months free then 129 rupees a month which is about €1.30, turkish netflix which brings price down from 17.99 per month to around 3 or 4 quid I think

    Well done B.A.

    How did you get the 4 months free?

    I think different countries have different free trials at the start.
    I joined Argentina, and got one month free.

    I find the same. You watch youtube more regularly when it's an instant watch on the TV with no ads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,599 ✭✭✭tossy


    Still getting ads on some videos when watching YouTube on the TV which is annoying.

    Yep it was definitely there, he was sitting beside me watching it on his phone and I heard an ad and when I looked at the progress bar on the video he was watching it had a load of the little yellow bars indicating where the ads where, I even double checked to make sure he was logged into the premium account

    No ads for me on phone or laptop - on these devices when i use youtube it says premium beside the youtube symbol but on the LG tv it still says youtube no mention of premium and getting ads, carwow is one channel i'm getting Ads on from the top of my head.

    EDIT: just logged in there now and seeing a full length banner Ad for the new VW ID4.

    Are you sure you're using the same account on both TV and phone?

    Yeah same account, this evening i will try logout and log back in again on the TV and see if it makes any difference. I did google it though and it seems to be a thing. I'm outraged it's not what I'm spending 179 pesos a month for! :D

    Update - signed out of account on TV then signed in again using the 'use your phone' option and it's working perfect now. Youtube logo replaced by premium logo on TV.
