    Can you use your paypal account for payment on turkey and mexico?

    PayPal currency conversion is terrible you would be better off using Revolut or another similar card

    I got one of the lads in work to do this.

    He proceeded to tell me he did this trick with Spotify.

    He now has Spotify Premium family for €2,75

    I don't use Spotify to try it. anyone wishing to give it a go?

    Try the Spotify thread you will probably have more luck setting up a family there

    Ah yes I forgot about that thread.

    Can you imagine combining the whole" Share family account with 6 people" and the main billing account is in turkey.

    That's €3 a month divided by 6. 50c per month, or €6 per year. insane

    I think spotify differs as in you need a credit card native to the country your setting the vpn to.

    I don't know how many boards users have a Turkish Credit card, but I'd assume not many.

    Anyone else setting up a premium account here?

    I pay for my Spotify family account using Paypal, I’m wondering thou would the address be an issue for the family membership

    Not sure tbh, I'm really only going by the info I was provided with by another poster who got me that Spotify for a year for a tenner. Sweet deal :D

    On another note though, is there anyway of buying Netflix yearly gift cards from any of these other countries?

    That way you could buy a years subs upfront - not have to worry about the exchange rate - and simply forget about it until your subscription needs renewing.

    Set mine up the other day. topped up revolut, used torguard and signed up for the premium plan at 39.99 tl a month. €5.69 roughly a month and could probably get cheaper but just wanted to try it worked. Logged out of my basic sub and back in with my new account. Perfect. I will try spotify later today. I don't use deezer.

    So if signing up to a Turkish account, i wonder if will they ever flag that the account is only used in Ireland? Or is it advised that you should always have a Turkish VPN active when viewing content?

    No need for vpn when watching only when signing up
    According to my Netflix setting I’m in America for the last six months this lol
    This is a great deal and long may it continue

    You only need a VPN when signing up... For now at least.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭daytob


    I have been using mine about a week now, no vpn and no issues with me using anything. It is however, only a week

    Has anyone ever gotten a Netflix ban for using this method?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 381 ✭✭sean72


    As long as you re-subscribe within 10 months, you keep your viewing history, profiles etc as far as I'm aware.

    So it's OK to use your usual netflix sign in email address and keep you viewing history?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,013 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    Yes. You just may not get a free month.

    How can you get banned, all you are doing is using the service abroad as it’s intended
    I’m still on a Mexican plan and view Netflix in America and Uk on a regular basis

    Use any Vpn you want to sign up, others have named vpn companies that allow turkey, once your signed up/joined you don’t need it anymore

    Yeah I done that already. I meant do you use VPN to watch US or UK netflix? Or you meant you went to US/UK and watched netflix while you were there?

    Is Turkey still the cheapest to sign up to? About 6 quid a month for the 4 screen package?

    Is this still working on PS4 etc.? I tried it yesterday on pc and it was fine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,261 ✭✭✭The Ayatolla


    What regions of Netflix would getflix give access to?

    I've used smartdnsproxy.com and they only allow the US Netflix.
