    Yah they've cut back.... Go back 2 or 3 pages and the answer is there. You need to be an Irish account. Reg number. Change payment method then cancel and renew with new country... Just read back

    Thanks, but I tried using an old irish netflix account that is using a different email address and restarting my account via vpn. However, I am still getting the same issue.

    Did you use Curve? Revolut being refused

    You have to change to Curve when Irish account is still active.

    THIS WORKED!!! :D

    The trick I missed in previous attempts was to change the card I want to pay from Turkey with before I cancel my Irish sub.

    Steps for anyone who is still stuck
    1. Assumes you are paying in Ireland with an Irish credit card
    2. When still an active member, change your payment method from your Irish card to a Curve card (mine is linked to my Revolut Card)
    3. Cancel your sub
    4. Wait until the day after it expires & "Go to Turkey" (I used VPNUnlimited)
    5. Restart your membership

    Just paid €4.54 for the top package of 4 screens

    This worked for me today. Only difference was I also added an Irish mobile number before I cancelled just in case.

    Do you have to do the Curve part, or is that only if you're paying with Revolut? Have started a new account on a normal Irish Mastercard, can I let that expire then resign up with VPN activated?

    I would say no, I have a sub through Argentina. Stupidly agreed to the fraudulent activity on the revolut, didn't realise the card would be cancelled. Tried to use the new card, denied payment. Tried to use the Mrs revolut, denied. Used an aib card, denied. Then got on to Netflix chat, they wouldn't approve revolut as a payment. Told me to use a local Argentinian card. In the end they unlocked my account so I can sort out payment. Due to expire next Monday.
    Sorted now, signed up to Curve, enterd the curve card details on Netflix and bingo it worked.
    Argentina sub for 4k has increased in price to 6. 63 euro, it was 4.54.
    Thanks for the tip on curve, u beauty

    No irish debit or credit card would work for me once I went to Turkey. Revolut neither.
    Only Curve would work.
    Someone used Monese earlier I think.

    Do I need to sign up for Irish Netflix and pay for a month before I can take advantage of the Turkey option or is there any way to do it with a new account?

    Tried curve, revolut and aib.
    Changed my payment to revolut while still on irish sub then cancelled. I obviously did not know the revolut wouldn't work untill after my sub expired so might try signing up again from ireland with curve and go through process again.

    I think the common error here and solution seems to be: set up the payment method you intend to use with telephone number/etc added on Irish sub and ensure you pay at least once. Then move to Turkey.

    Thanks for everyone's helpful messages.

    Just so that I am on the page as everyone else

    Cancel Mexico account
    Restart membership in Ireland and pay for a month and then cancel.
    Restart account in Turkey.

    I am currently using revolut to pay in Mexican Pesos and have my Irish number is assigned to my account. Do I need to change my banking details again?

    Yes
    Revolut isn't working for most
    Switch to Curve from Ireland before cancelling

    I recently bought 360 Turkish Lira via Revolut for ~€40.
    I'm hoping it will look after my 29.99TL Netflix plan for next 12 months.

    Might be of interest here, I was paying at a petrol station today at a self service pump. I was using my Revolut card and my newer card (I have 2 linked to same account) worked initially and showed up as Revolut on screen. It then stopped working and I had to use my original card instead which showed up as Revolut prepay. So I'm wondering if they changed the way their cards are coded or something that might affect which cards do or don't work for this system?

    Yes, recently-issued Revolut cards are coded as debit cards and should work.

    Go to Turkey

    Hi all,

    New to this forum as not getting any answers over at reddit. So I'm from the UK, last month I managed to renew my netflix using speedify vpn and paying in turkish lira. However it looks like netflix has clocked on as they have cancelled my automatic renewal as when I login into my account it asks me to subscribe again, so I used speedify again and it changed to turkish lira, when I select a plan and it asks for my debit card details, it says something is wrong with my card, so I tried my credit card and same thing so it looks like netflix have managed to stop me paying with my card using a vpn. So is there another workaround I can do anyone please?

    Thank you frash, I have just ordered my curve card and will have to wait for it to arrive in the post, do you reckon I can still still try with the card details supplied in the app? Or will i have to wait till I have physically received the card and activated it.


  • #2978

    Tried it and still says problem with card but I haven't activated it within the app yet, I don't want to either till the card arrives as could fall into the wrong hands! So I will try again in a few days...

    So my method might not work then as I am already expired, I might just pay £11.99 now for one month with my debit card then change payment method while I'm still active then cancel then renew with vpn in turkey like how you explained.

    Or do you reckon it will work straight up with a curve card? Which i cannot try yet until I receive in the post and activate the card within the app.

    i signed up to curve a couple of days ago and joined netflix for someone straight away without issue, dont forget to add the details to your uk account for a month first and then move abroad to wherever you decide

    That makes sense! So does the curve card fool netflix into thinking you have moved abroad then? If netflix can suspect with your UK bank card that you are still in the UK, can they not also do that with curve?

    I cancelled mine last month and account has now expired since 00:01 this morning. So I’m at the stage where I sign in and ask to select plan, only showing USD prices. I am connected to Turkish VPN using NORDVPN.

    Do I have to wait a full 24hrs after account has expired before seeing the Turkish price?

    Are you sure you're in Turkish VPN? Try incognito mode too in case there is a residual cookie?

    Anyway, what’s the crack with Revolut now, not taking card like before. What’s the best process to get account to accept Revolut? Don’t want to sign up for curve

    Has anyone been able to use Tevokut recently when signing up? What was yous process?

    Signed up for curve! Went to sign up with Irish debit card (KBC) and again, something went wrong, vpn off, cookies and history cleared and app restarted!!

    Any ideas. I take it I sign up with Irish account with KBC card, when signed up, change payment method to curve and then cancel membership. When it finishes just renew membership while connected to Turkish VPN and it should renew taking the money out of my Revolut account that’s linked to my curve account

    Happened to me too, remove your email address from your account and create a new netflix account with the same email address or make a new email address up then it will accept your debit card then try again with the curve card when you cancel and renew.

    managed to change email by going to netflix.com/youraccount so i've changed it back to my original email again and now have been able to setup Netflix with KBC account.

    I've just tried to add in my curve card as I just activated it and it saying something went wrong please try again!!!

    The card won't be here until 12/11 but I take it I can still use it online with card details? I am new to Curve I take it that I just have to have the revolut card ready to use for transactions in the wallet. I have money in revolut.

    Anyone had this issue?

    Try adding it tomorrow. Netflix said to me in live chat before that too many requests put you on a cooldown for 13 hours on their payment system.

    Also need to make sure your debit card is attached to your curve account for it to be able to take money.

    If you're using Curve, you can link your Irish debit/credit card directly to it and Curve will handle the FX. There's no need to involve Revolut too but you can if you really want to. You'll get the same fee-free FX with Curve as you would with Revolut.

    So was unable to update Card details again today, Got onto Netflix chat. I asked them to update payment details, they said that they could only do CC. So I just said that my card (Curve) was a credit card (Never mentioned Curve).

    They added it successfully. Just see a €1 charge from Curve on Revolut, so it's working.

    Going to cancel sub now and Join Turkish Netflix on next billing date on 2/12/20

    I used to have my Netflix through Sky so they don’t have any payment information for me. Sky is now cancelled so Netflix doesn’t work anymore.

    What should I do to sign up through Turkey? Wait a month after the cancellation date or do it now?
