    They haven't been active for a few hours so maybe give them until tomorrow to get back to you, their here nearly 20 years so I imagine there's a simple explanation.

    it appears the family manager has cancelled the sub. Disappointing as there’s a few who are on same plan.

    Hopefully Scotty can explain/ find a resolution.

    Still going on individual sub.

    Due out next week 🤞

    alibaba.com let's let you join a "family"

    I just signed up for a year which cost about about €24. It says you get warranty, so will see how it goes

    That was always my worry about the vague way he was providing accounts...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,868 ✭✭✭Nollog


    Probably the family manager got caught by google for not being in the correct country just like users here have been, assuming anyway.

    Good thing about familying on here is they usually post of it happens to them.

    My scottie99 account still ok

    My worry about the family account work around, rather than your own actual family is, what if one of the family gets reported/barred for posting or searching for illegal content. Is everyone in the family account affected or just the naughty person 🤔

    Just the naughty person I’d say but if it was manager then it would probably cancel the family

    If your family group does get nerfed, just remember you can only change family groups once every 12 months.

    You could always just create a new Google account for you tube If needed

    Time is contagious, everybody's getting old.

    Here's the list of prices for all countries for individual membership. I'd start at the cheapest one and see how far you have to go to get a working one.

    In same boat myself but think I need to wait for the membership to expire before trying a new country. Currently Argentina, going to try for that again bit doubt it'll work.

    I got the same email a month or two ago. When I opened the YouTube app on Android I was able to put in a different Revolut card and it accepted it fine



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,176 ✭✭✭Bambaata


    Managed to finally get a polish account to work, had been failing and kept trying different revolut cards whilst using nordvpn. Had to put in random polish address and finally accepted and took the 11 for family, fair bit more than I had been paying but better than here



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 848 ✭✭✭maik3n


    Managed to finally get it working through my android fone with windscribe VPN.
    Had to add my credit card as a payment option and try purchasing a sub a few times.
    When it wouldn't work after like the 5th time, I removed the google account from my fone, added it from scratch and tried buying once again.

    I've signed up for the free trial though, so I guess it remains to be seen what will happen when it actually does try to pull the funds from my card and sees that I'm in ROI instead of the country I subbed from.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,700 ✭✭✭Del007


    Turkish money just taken from Revolut



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,563 ✭✭✭lee_baby_simms


    do you have to wait for your final month to expire? I for the email a few days ago. Can I update payment method now for payment next month?

    It only worked for me on the 20th and the 20th was actually the day my sub was to end so not sure if its related. I had been trying before that but those times it didnt work



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,218 ✭✭✭Inviere


    Got the email there, was using Turkey for ages but Google wants a payment method issued in Turkey it seems.

    Revanced and SmartTube it is then!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,145 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Also got the email. Why can't they just leave us alone?! 😉

    Where to next? There are no Youtube giftcards from Turgame or something?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,030 ✭✭✭irelandrover


    Just got the email as well



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,668 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Got the email too. All good things come to an end 😓



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,045 ✭✭✭jeffk


    Got the email was using Sri Lanka after a lottery on which payment would work

    I've been downloading my YouTube videos to watch via Plex as some videos get taken down, so might not bother with whack a mole premium again



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,469 ✭✭✭micks_address


    Email re Argentina.. I pay monthly and it says need to update payment method by November 24th.. what's the best approach? Wait and see or try somewhere else?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭harpstilidie


    Got the dreaded email there as well. Really hoping there's a workaround somewhere out there!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,299 ✭✭✭Fabio


    Got the dreaded email this morning as well. Not sure where to go from here with it.

    Do people just try Poland or Ukraine or somewhere using the same email address they used for their Argentina or India sub???
