    When I try to subscribe the price comes up as $9.99 and when I proceed I get "The item you were attempting to purchase could not be found".

    I did sign up via vpn for the US trial but had the cancel as it would not actually charge my credit card.

    Any ideas? Thanks.

    I'm having the same trouble as you, I found this on the Google support site:

    Signing up when traveling outside of United States

    Existing United States users of Google Play Music who are traveling outside of the United States are experiencing difficulties signing up for Google Play Music All Access. Our team is investigating this issue at this time.

    Gonna wait until maybe the 14/9 to sign up. Currently using Rdio which is great and have 74 days left in my subscription. I was so excited when I saw that it's available in Éire :D Also, poor UK with that £7/£10 price tag.

    Seems songs not available on Spotify, not available on this either from a quick look. Stairway to heaven etc.

    Stairway to Heaven is there

    Have you tried adding you CC to your google wallet in your general google preferences.

    What will happen then is google will see you have a CC linked through wallet and give you the appropriate option.

    Ive found that if you dont have the CC there pre existing and try signing up through the pricing pop up it will default to dollars and have issues from then on in.

    How can I not find it?

    Stairway to Heaven isn't on it. If you're seeing it it's from your library. No Zep on there at all.

    Hi All,
    I have a cc in google wallet that I have used before with google. When I go to signup for this new service, and click on start trial, it tells me that my cc is an unsupported one and instead of showing he amount of €7.99, the total shows up as $9.99. I have been on to google music support and there is a ticket opened for this issue. The cc and billing address is in Ireland and not the usa. I see a few people have this same issue. Has anyone else have had this problem and had it sorted? TIA.

    Are you using the card you initially used to sign up to Google music?

    I originally signed up via Tunnel Bear as if I was in the States, but I changed the card I originally used (and my details) and made a purchase on the Play Store.

    Maybe that's the reason it worked for me...

    Same issue here with the unsupported payment method. Instead of showing the amount in dollars as you see, I see it in sterling. I haven't gotten this sorted yet.

    I remember I did some messing about a few months back trying to get my account to appear as if it was in the UK so as to get Devices available to me so maybe it's something to do with this.

    Now I remember that I had bought a tablet while I was in the USA which had google music on it. I must have put on the credit card then. I have deleted the card in google wallet and put it back in again, put in a new billing address and still it won't allow me in. When I tried to add in another payment method while at the ordering screen, it only gives countries around the usa where this has been launched.

    I have a ticket opened with technical support in google play music but I am not sure when I will get a reply back. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get the system to recognise that I am not in the us? I do not know if downloading google play from the app store will help with this but I am afraid I will lose what songs I have in the app. If I cannot get this to work, I will probaly have to go back to spotify. TIA.

    What's the handiest way of clearing the local music off the app and just use it for streaming?

    I have the existing card I have always used with google play / wallet, and I also added another. Both show as unsupported. I think it's because I signed up previously by a vpn, at least that's all I can come up with.

    Settings->Apps->Play Music->Clear Data

    Go into the app and settings->untick cache during playback

    Oooooo didn't work.

    Tried this with two separate cards and get "unsupported payment type" for both.

    Gonna spend some time fixing my album art for all my music in the cloud :)

    Can you do this?

    Any idea how?

    Google made a hash with ids of some of my more underground shtuff....

    Do you mean songs you have on your card or songs youve made available offline from google music?
    If the 1st just delete them from your sd card. If the 2nd you have to go to each album in the app and remove the make available offline pin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭ezra_pound


    Have you gone to Google Walet and removed us cc and replaced with eireanach cc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,579 ✭✭✭BopNiblets


    If you add stuff to My Library from this will it stay there after the free trial ends? :)

    Itll stay there as long as youre subscribed. Otherwise its just free music :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    Strange thing to say but I want to wait before this comes out on iOS before I subscribe. Cant live without it, its why I'm using rdio right now

    Hi,
    apologies only seeing your post now.
    A lot of my old music I have on the cloud is from the days of getting a song off your friend without worrying about Copyright and all that stuff.
    So a lot of it didn't have album art.
    You go to Google Music and you click edit and it will allow you to edit everything including the album art.

    its remarkable because they're effectively pirates and the infrastructure is all they have to pay for. Most of Spotify's revenue ends up back with the record companies.

    ADD: Reading through this thread and others on the net, it appears the service is streaming fine for other users :(

    No problems streaming here either ok mobile. Had it streaming in hq for about 5 or 6 hours worth of driving the last few days, even saving the tracks onto device while streaming hasn't impacted quality

    I'm having an issue with the Play All Access & it's driving me nuts. I notice I'm not the only one either. I get the following message "unsupported payment method" no what card I try and pay with, therefore am unable to activate a subscription
    This has to be related to when I tried to get access to the services' free US trial a couple of months ago (but failed). I have removed any US addresses from Google Wallet, and then removed my cards and re-added them.Nothing is working so far. If anyone has found a way around it, please do share!

    Try removing your Google account completely from the phone then re-adding it.
