Hi all, tried to sign up to this today and used a revolt card and put in a random address from Argentina, showed up as 149/month which is abt 1.30 euro but when I clicked in it said my card issuer has declined this request. Any ideas why it won't go through?

Have you online transactions turned off or location based purchases enabled in revolut card settings. I'm paying with revolut for the last 9 months or so without any issues.

I think I had a similar problem and signed up via India and it worked on revolut. Family plan costs €2

Yes had to use India but would only allow a 3 month pre paid sub which will do the job

ongarite · 16-06-2021 9:05pm

Thanks for the tip OP.
Signed up with Argentina account using Hola VPN browser extension & fake address generator.
India YT seems to have suspended family account signups.

Made sure to make family group and add people to it before signing up.

Don't forget to get your Tidal and/or Spotify the same way.

Kolido · 25-06-2021 12:19pm

Or Prime video for less than a Euro a month.

I got the free month for tidal with Argentina , might try spotify if im bored , I think I like making it work more than saving the money

Scruff · 25-06-2021 1:38pm

Have Tidal like that but didnt know spotify worked too. Will give that ago cause after a few months of Tidal I think Spotify is much better, especially when it comes to having radio friendly versions of songs for young ears.

TheDriver · 25-06-2021 2:15pm

spotify doesn't work like this. It's a shared family that works with spotify.
I moved to tidal and never looked back.

Apologies.
I knew there was some sort of Spotify workaround. Forgot about the family thing.
I'm actually part of a Boardie's Spotify family, but don't use it anymore 'cause I moved to Tidal.

Is you tube music as good as Spotify/Tidal? I have all 3 myself but constantly find myself using Spotify

Content is probably equally good. Platform support - nothing beats Spotify. There is no Spotify Connect/Tidal Connect equivalent either.

Set your dns or vpn to turkey

Visit prime video website

Setup new account or change your existing account details to turkey address

30 day free trial -> try 7.90 thereafter (currently €0.76) pm

No need for a vpn, just sign up with amazon account to the relevant country.
If you sign up to the Brazilian amazon you get prime music too. It worked out for me for 13 euros for the year. Turkey doesn't include music, or it didn't when i looked into it.

Depending on how long you want to keep YTP, you can add a backup payment on your google account or change the disposable card to the regular revolut card details

Alkers · 20-09-2021 10:52pm

Is anyone having issues with the indian account being an individual accoutn and not sharing with the family? Do you have to be the family manager to share a sub or can any of the member share?

Nigzcurran · 21-09-2021 5:24am

Family manager controls the whole account, I’m having no issues with mine

nhur · 27-09-2021 9:34am

was just trying this with Revolut and Argentinian address as billing address... but it's not working - any suggestions? (i.e. do i need to change my address on Revolut? on my google account? etc)

yup - VPN: argentina, Revolut location security off and online transactions on, tried both argentine address and argentine address with the street name the same as my billing... (getting a 'temporary hold' on my revolut on some attempts

Payment failed – membership ending in 2 daysYour payment for YouTube Premium didn't go through. We'll keep trying, but we recommend updating your payment method so you don't lose access to members-only benefits in 2 days.

I have been using my AIB Visa Debit card without any problems and i have my Revolut card as backup but it's still not processing.

Anyone else having same issue?

Dinter2k · 21-10-2021 4:12pm

Ok, thanks.

I contacted AIB and they see no reason as to why the payment wouldn't go through as normal.

If I contact YouTube, they probably just pull me up on being in Ireland and not India.

Something similar happens me with Amazon Turkey. I get a message every month saying payment has failed but it still takes payment from my backup card. Maybe just hang tight and it might go through.

califano · 22-10-2021 3:37pm

I think they copping on about VPN' location and CC's location being at odds. I have mine done about a year and no problems but tried to set it up for a friend the same way using their cc and its not accepting it at all. Arg or India.

derra · 22-10-2021 7:08pm

Well I hope mine goes through tonight or tomorrow but I'm doubting it at this stage.

Be interesting to see if more come on with same problem.

TheDriver · 22-10-2021 7:27pm

I paid two days ago, no issues

wiz569 · 22-10-2021 7:28pm

Taken from debit card on Monday no problem.

Payment went through today thankfully.

It went through the default AIB card.

Glad that's sorted!

nhur · 25-10-2021 3:31pm

hi folks,

just to say that if you're getting the error when signing up and verifying your credit card etc (a.k.a. error [OR-REH-04]), try opening a private browsing window and signing up there 😜

Alkers · 26-10-2021 2:18pm

Setup succesfully with Revolut last night

Good stuff. Like I mentioned, I get the warning every month but it always goes through the default card.

I got this email this morning. How did your payments work out after they changed the account from India to Ireland? Did they keep charging in Rupees or did you get charged the full Irish sub?

Thanks.

cudsy1 · 02-11-2021 8:04pm

(i havent checked my bank account yet to see if payment went thru, but my account is definitely paused. apprehensive about 'updating' my payment details!)

Hi

We're having some trouble with your current billing information. We'll try again, but in the meantime to keep your YouTube Premium membership benefits please update your payment details.

ltd440 · 03-11-2021 2:16pm

I meant to get on this ages ago, has anyone updated their details and managed a way to keep their Indian sub ?

Can you not use Argentina instead?

barry181091 · 06-11-2021 11:21am

Hi all,

I am on a spotify family plan that is going swimmingly. I presume the YT family works much the same but far cheaper. Anyone want to join my Youtube argentina family?

It’s a euro a month! Just let friends or family use the spare spots for free

Tails142 · 06-11-2021 11:37am

Thanks OP.

Just signed up using revolut and nordVPN set to Argentina. Cost €1.04

Had bought the nordVPN to try bypassing firewall on public wifi in work but it was blocked too so I'm glad I got some use for it, although a couple days after activating it I got a message about google one which I'm signed up for offering free vpn but not sure you can set your country with that.

Anyway, hope it renews ok for a while.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118126581#Comment_118126581

Ah now, it's about 1.55 a month for 6 slots. Still don't understand why people look for families at this price point

Nigzcurran · 06-11-2021 6:27pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118126614#Comment_118126614

Yeah sorry your right! I have a you tube family full and they are all absolutely delighted with their free you tube premium, I also have the cheap prime video with a few free spots gone to grateful mates and I benefit in getting a Netflix spot for free off one of them so it’s a win win all round

martineatworld · 10-11-2021 6:27am

Has anyone here ever got the "confirm your address to avoid losing access" email from YouTube? And is there a way around it?

pastor · 16-11-2021 1:38am

Just to be clear can I check my situation, I currently have an Irish family account with all family slots filled do I simply need to cancel the Irish subscription and follow the OP's original instructions to get YT Premium for a couple of euro's? Thanks in advance.
