on first skip thru, that's looks interesting - i didn't think you could do spotify via Turkey

OP, Tidal may be an option for you too - BA link here. I had it for about 2 years but then switched to Apple One as the kids got older it was just easier for 6 of us to be on that.

Spotify Family mega thread - Spotify Family.. Anyone interested? [Threads Merged] [Mod Note in OP] - Page 168 — boards.ie - Now Ye're Talkin'

Interesting, looks like you need to do the Disney+/F1 TV/Deezer trick re spare phone with a Turkish account only on it.

You need a mastercard for tidal ARG now (I think). Deezer via Turkey works sometimes and there's also YouTube music.

I've had a family account with fellow Boardsies for years now. Works out as €3 a month. I know you can save more by getting a Turkish sub but imo for the sake of €3 it's worth it to save the hassle and keep Irish chart recommendations and stuff.

sadly, not the silver bullets I was hoping for !!

You can change it in the settings I think. I don't have any Argentina stuff

Would you happen to have a free spot to join your family group? PM me if you have a free spot.

Brian017

Would a VPN Turkey and an Irish card work .or maybe a Ukraine Vpn and an Irish card like youtube

What payment method?

jvrk

Sorry was paying for family so saved me money.. So I set up a play store AC in turkey like for cheaper Disney + used the same ac signed into bluestacks.. then setup a new Spotify ac in turkey with it and paid via google pay in bluestacks. Used Turkey VPN it's free on playstore in bluestacks to get me turkey and worked.

Thanks, is your region in the app set to Turkey or Ireland. I set up a new account with an Ireland address as the rest of the family members will have that (link above says that's fine for Australia etc).

I can change the country on my browser to Turkey, but the browser won't let me pay via Google pay, will only let me use a card.

When I try on the app it keeps coming up as euro :(

(Using Nord VPN)

uli84

we have 3 family spotify spots if anyone wants to share the cost…Irish subscription though..

jvrk

I couldn't get Nord surfshark or ipvanish to work for me but the Turkey VPN worked for me had to use bluestacks I had no VPN on creating AC so set up free then put on VPN set it to turkey. Then paid via Google pay with my turkey AC in bluestacks.

cullenswood

Nice one, thanks for the help. Got it sorted in the end (I think), went as far as paying in euro via app, and then it gave me the option to change the country in the actual app.

What's bluestacks?

TheDriver

It's an emulator for android on a PC. Very handy for this kind of thing. You can also use an old phone and just have your "Turkish" account on the phone along with a VPN.

bobbyg

Any advice appreciated, I can't seem to find an option to pay with Google or via play store. I have the vpn on and have play store country as turkey and I'm getting the options for Turkish prices but only option is to be pay by card and that gets blocked. I managed to do it for disney plus but can't seem to get Spotify sorted

That happened to me on my reg phone.

I had to dig out my old phone that only has the turkey Gmail account on it and the Google pay option appeared. Even allowed me use an old Irish Spotify account (my reg email address) and pay through Turkish google account.

Problem now is that I've Spotify, tidal, Deezer and YouTube music subs which is overkill.
