No your fine, I got that email and it was maybe 12 months later I got the email to kick me out of India. You're holding firm anyway for now!

Looks like Poland it is for me also. Have had the ads the last week, enough's enough!!

CuriousCucumber

Urgh, same email too.

Will be sorry to set it go, but I do watch awful shite on youtube.

Will only missing watching old gigs on it.

It's barely worth the €3 I pay at the moment. Definitely not paying the full amount

I just cancelled my current sub, turned on Nordvpn for Poland and added my Revolut card as payment method. The easiest it’s ever been when doing this.

I got no error or we didn’t recognise your payment method. Poland bing in EU may have helped? 🤷‍♂️

I’ve always managed to change but always had to try use differnet VPNs, browsers and cards. Was always a pain in the hole just look through the thread the past 6 months

Alos got the turkey email, it was inevitable. Will try another region when it elaspes. Never in a million years will I pay the Irish prices. Looks like Poland family plan is the way to go now.

I feel it's like whack a mole with subscriptions with companies now, but it's worth the few mins effort to save.

So where are the best options now, Romania & Poland?

Got Poland set up - used Nord and a random address generator to make a Polish address. Seems to be working fine for now. I set up a separate virtual Revolut card just for the sub.

Link to pricing and wether each country works

khazakstan was €5.12 for a single

Got Romania setup a few minutes ago as my renewal was due in 2 days time. Got the family plan for 55RON (about 11 euro). which is way less than €26.99 they plan on charging.

Used a random address found via google and a virtual revolut card. No issues.

Soarer

Got the dreaded expiring email a couple of weeks ago.

Have done nothing since, but received an email from YouTube this morning saying my Turkish sub is going up to TRY159.99 (approx. 4.30) per month from December 20th.

I'm assuming it's an automated thing, and their left hand doesn't know what their right hand is doing. But it'd be lovely if I didn't have to move anywhere.

Got the Argentina email a few days ago. Gave Poland a try with a little used gmail of mine and got to the payment section, but all cards used declined.Might give it one more try with a virtual Revolut.

Turkish family membership is increasing from around €3.13 in price to €4.32 from next month.

Still a great deal for those of us who haven't received any emails about wrong country yet!

159.99 TRY/month is it?

Funnily I don't get the emails about price increases, but a second adult on the account does, despite me paying.

Yep, 160 Lira per month is the new price

Surfshark

P_Cash

pm.

I signed up to Romina family plan a couple of weeks ago for 35ron (about €8) just got an email saying it's going to 55ron (€11.50) so Poland may be the best option it they haven't given a price increase

khazakstan is €9:43 for the family which is cheaper than Poland

micks_address

i got the argentina email last month but i went in and added my revolut again with the same argentina address i used originally and payment was processed this week.. maybe it wont work in the future but seems to be ok for now..

andydurnin

I had Argentina but got the email and so had to start again. I joined up to Vietnam and I got the above back in September. Still working at the moment. Used a normal VPN and app.

gillamandango

Signed up to Turkey again (individual sub), as mentioned using the Apple method.

3 days ago it was 79TL and got email today that its increasing to 104TL.

"Note that you can save on your YouTube Premium subscription by signing up directly on our website, where the new rate for your plan would be TRY 79.99/month."

Either their way of getting the 30% back from Apple or another way of catching us out?

The former.

No VPN needed to redeem the Turkish apple vouchers?

My turkey sub will cancel in another two weeks so will be looking at the apple option for turkey this weekend.

Unless you have a valid Turkish payment, it's over.

Got the same email, as did a few others.
