    I've a few QS on the steps needed.

    Questions
    Is a VPN necessary. If so which one?

    If you have a current Netflix account do you cancel it?

    Do you then search Google for Netflix Argentina and sign up normally using your Irish Bank Card and then use this account on your TV streaming Box?

    Thanks for any help. I've read through the last few pages but haven't seen a step by step process. I

    First off sign up to Netflix Ireland for free month,add a payment method,I used my Irish card, and an Irish mobile number,

    Then before the month is up cancel it, let it run out then use a VPN to connect to Netflix turkey, login using the same credentials as you did originally and start your membership up again,

    Enjoy 🙂

    Thanks very much.

    Ive already signed up on the app from Google Playstore using PayPal

    Should I cancel it now or let it run out and then cancel closer to the end of the month?

    Personally I would wait til later in the month,it doesn't look as suspicious in my mind lol

    But I would change your method of payment as there are reports of renewal problems using paypal, dont forget mobile number as well :)

    I had that issue, trying to change from PayPal to my debit card. Had to contact Netflix support to change my payment method (Irish account, haven't been able to change yet to Turkey due to the payment method issues)

    Probably about 100. Vast vast majority of people are happy to pay full whack.

    I got an email from Netflix recently "what are people watching in your area?" - which of course is Argentina. They are so thoughtful. :D

    Signed up for NF on 6th March
    Cancelled the sub right away.
    Sub expired on 7th Apr
    Installed Speedify VPN and picked Turkey
    Logged on to my a/c and picked the sub with 4 users and UHD etc
    VPN is now off and everything is good.

    Originally I had signed up using Irish credit card, I tried changing to Revolut but NF didn't accept that. It would have cost me 5.70 with Revolut but it cost me 5.87 with AIB credit card so not a big deal.

    Thanks lads for all your help.

    Thank you. I followed these steps and everything worked perfectly. €5.55 a month for the premium plan. Can't argue with that!

    Hi folks,

    Apologies for the possibly oft repeated question here, but it's been so long since I set up my subscription to Mexico that I wouldn't be confident, how do you change from say, Mexico to Turkey?

    Cancel Mexico, let sub lapse, log into your account whilst on a VPN to Turkey and click your sub package. Turn off VPN and never worry about it again.

    They are giving free upgrade to the next package for 1 month. So if you are looking for the standard package with HD, sign up for the basic package with SD and you will get free upgrade to the HD package.

    Add irish card while on irish sub. Pay for 1 month, then cancel. Then move to Istanbul and off you go.

    From what I've seen here, seems like Revolut will I n lh work if the card has been on account already, they don't seem to accept it as new payment method any longer.

    Had you kept the payment card on your account the same when first signing up on the Irish plan, cancelling / lapsing and then trying to sign up to Turkey?

    Goes a bit haywire if you switch cards in-between. If not, they could well be catching on - it would be very easy to only accept a payment card from the country your trying to sign-up to.

    Yeah, BOI card on account, it didn't accept that do tried Revolut physical and virtual cards all rejected..
