    With the ukranian family account there's no issues with adding family members, they don't have to be in the same country.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,439 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Surely you would still get the country error with or without an active sub, Im not sure though as Ive not tried it. Can you change the country on your own account or do you need it for Google pay?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,399 ✭✭✭Zardoz


    The Google Account I have the sub on is one I created specifically for an android box I have at home to watch Youtube on.

    I created a Turkish Google account for it, I didnt need to do that it seems now, an Irish one would have worked fine, just use a VPN to pay for Premium.

    I didnt add my own personal account as I had ublock origin on my pc and laptop.

    I think I will just cancel the existing sub and create a new family on my main personal account then resub, hopefully that should work or are there issues now with creating a new Turkish sub.

    I found it completely random when trying to set up a Turkish/Ukranian account.


    It finally worked on my third google account but I'm not able to add any family members to it as I get the country error.

    The main error that I was getting when setting up the account was 'your payment is not in the same country as your account '

    Just use an irish Google account with a vpn on sign up. No need for setting up foreign accounts at all

    My Turkish sub ran out yesterday and tried all the tricks posted here with no joy to renew it. So I Signed up to the Ukrainian one costing €2.58 a month, it won't give a yearly option. Does anyone know if it auto renews or do you go through the same process every month to keep it going?

    Auto renews for anyway with Ukraine. Down with those pesky Russians, lol.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 871 ✭✭✭ECookie13


    I must be lucky - I am still having no issues with the Turkish sub, with Revolut Mastercard, and works out at basically exactly 1 Euro a month.

    I could never get India to work though. Seems very random.

    Just got an email saying Argentina based family account is going up to ARS 1569, from ARS 699. About €4.20, still relatively cheap compared to full price. Was only ARS 179 in July 22 when I started in Argentina, some change in that space of time!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,335 ✭✭✭✭dodzy


    225% hike. Some jump alright. Effective from December billing. Still worth it for premium. Won’t be bothering with a switch…..unless others prove it’s straight forward and bullet proof. Not worth the risk of losing it IMO.

    The individual sub has increased to ARS869/mo about €2.40. By this time next year that will be down to around €1.07 which I paid last week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 2,658 ✭✭✭Melodeon


    I got a similar e-mail about my Turkish sub, going up to TRY 57.99/month.

    That's about €1.93.


    It was TRY 16.99 when I signed up early in 2022 :-(



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,888 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    My family going up to 115 TRL, that's 3.85



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 871 ✭✭✭ECookie13


    The Lira is falling like a stone though, so that will become a better value over time I would imagine. But I see Google doing a yearly raise for these locations, like Turkey, Argentina etc.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 954 ✭✭✭feargantae


    Turkey Family is after going from 60TRY/€2 to 116TRY/€3.85.


    I remember having the student plan and it was 10TRY or about 30c!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,362 ✭✭✭✭The Nal


    Argentina email. Going up to 869 peso/€2.34.

    Wont break the bank.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,265 ✭✭✭✭CoBo55


    I got the same email, it's hardly a deal breaker in fairness, not very nice on the poor sod actually living in Argentina though 😡



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,297 ✭✭✭Fabio


    Looks like the Argentina Youtube Premium family plan is going up to ARS 1569 per month. About €4.50 per month.

    That's a shocking increase. I just got the email. I was actually considering cancelling until I did a Revolut exchange. 😝



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,729 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    My 10 year old spends all day on YouTube so even a fiver a month is money well spent, I share the other family spots for free but I suppose if it ever got up to a tenner a month I might not be so generous!

    Got my email this morning, I have it through rev and turkey. Worth it for amount kids use it (and me too tbh). Annoying but oh well. I suppose concensus is don't change location if have something working already?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,474 ✭✭✭✭tom1ie


    Folks does anyone know is you tube music included with you tube premium?

    If so does anyone know can you merge two songs together so there’s no break between when one song ends and one starts?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 10,303 ✭✭✭✭con747


    Music is included, the rest I don't know though!

    Possibly might take you up on the offer but just paid for 1 month so might be later in the month

    If you want to send me a PM



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,729 ✭✭✭Nigzcurran


    Just had a look and I dont see an option for merging the songs, Spotify definitely does have it

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,338 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    I'm interested in joining a plan if anybody has a space open

    PM if anyone is open



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 110 ✭✭Mobius2021


    Anyone know what happened an annual subscription when the year is up? From reading I believe it just expires and I need to sign back up for Premium.

    Got a deal last year for 1 year of Premium for 299.99 Turkish Lira.

    Not a hope in hell will I be paying Irish prices.

    Be careful of that, I heard from a mate that his annual expired and he could not resign back up. It seems once your account loses the subscription or it cancels, its virtually impossible to sign back up without a Turkish Card.
