    Set my back up payment method using the Wize app. Was able to set up a virtual account in Turkish Lira and it comes with a Turkish Iban. Wonder if that would be enough.

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

    I was going through Ghana. Just got cut off.

    Just gona use Brave browser, that blocks ads on YouTube. Alternative is using VPN to Romania while on the YouTube app, ads aren't allowed there.

    Hi all

    ignored my cutoff date. I had a few pesos taken from my account as normal. Then this mail arrived over night

    So if you renew, do they stop service mid month cycle or just let it ride until the next renewal date?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,383 ✭✭✭Billy Mays


    Got cut off from Argentina this morning aswell. Youtube music still seems to be playing ad free and in the background aswell which I didn't expect. My Off The Ball sub that I signed up for through their youtube channel (costs around €1.10 per month as opposed to €9.99) is still active.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 212 ✭✭w4ntedman


    Could some nice person post a screenshot of the message in the app under purchases and subscriptions immediately after getting the email?

    I tried a lot of things and eventually it accepted my Curve card- no message under purchases and subscriptions anyway but I can't remember what message was there before (if any).

    Is this the message everyone else gets or the cancellation flagged on this page.

    I got the same email this morning, Dec 30th.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Griffinx


    Same here, even though I previously received a mail with a December 5th cut off date, they've now extended it to the 3rd of January



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,949 ✭✭✭✭dulpit




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,555 ✭✭✭✭Red Silurian


    The first email we all got had the date of December 6th, today. This is the date that you had to update your card details with an Indian/Turkish/Ukranian/etc. card to continue paying for Youtube Premium.

    The subscription paid for before today's date will cover until your next billing date.

    For me I pay for my subscription on the 4th of the month so I paid on the 4th of December and the subscription I paid on that date is good until the 4th of January

    The above idea of using kingvariety and associated worries are both valid. The site could very easily be here-today-gone-tomorrow however for $15 (~€13) for the year I think it's worth a risk to see will it last at least a month or 2

    ZL25.99 which worked out as €6.09 on Revolut. Much better than €17.99 in Ireland.

    I wish did Premium service without music as I use another service for my music.

    €6 pm for a Polish family sub? Will Irish cards work?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,690 ✭✭✭10000maniacs


    Youtube have single handedly made adverts a hugely negative experience. And now people associate Google with negativity because of this experience.

    Even worse for Irish people because we have one of the highest Youtube Premium rates in the Western World.

    I know they employ a lot of people in Ireland, but please Fcuk off home and go make the USA great again or whatever the orange man says, and take your bloody adverts with you.

    We were happy before Youtube and we will be happy after it eats itself and dies.

    has anyone tried using google play vouchers to pay in India? It is down as one of the accepted payment options.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,581 ✭✭✭JTMan


    Does not work with Google Play vouchers according to Reddit.

    Does work with Apple vouchers. But you need an Apple device.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,556 ✭✭✭ongarite


    Thanks to whoever posted the Apple Turkey store method. My Argentina sub was going to be cancelled next week so was able to seamlessly move with no interruptions with my family group.

    same here. Sorted for another 12 months. Little more expensive than before but still nothing close to the crazy full Irish price

    Looks like I've been rumbled but I didn't get any email, if I did I missed it.

    Money was due to be taken yesterday but never left my account and today I'm getting ads. :(

    What email address did people get the dreaded email from to say they'd been nuked?
