    Any resolution on adding family members outside Ireland? Two of my kids are getting the error about being in a different country to me. Neither have cards attached to their account.

    I set this up a few years ago, dunno if it's since changed - but I had to have them added to my family before I set up the Indian account.

    You can cancel your current India account and also kick out your family members.
    Get a new "burner" gmail account, invite family or whoever then off to India again.

    On your devices you can add the burner account as a secondary account and everything premium plays happily

    I tried this on an iPad with a VPN, when I tried to subscribe, it told me I had to subscribe via iTunes Irish store?

    Do it through the chrome browser not through the app.

    Just Wondering ? What's the difference here ......?
    I got banned from boards years ago for daring to say you could get Sky Sports, Movies etc free on mobdro. The reason being, I was being dishonest, stealing etc Yet lying about your country etc is fair game. I don't mind a bit but I am aiming this question at the mods.
    Any Mod care to address this ? Dishonesty being the key word ?
    Ps I was banned for a month.

    Using an illegal service like you mention is illegal and you're effectively paying for stolen material.
    YouTube are taking money for the service they own and provide.

    There’s a bit of a difference between posting about blatant illegal streaming and legally (if not a bit morally wrong) paying for a service.

    But you are stealing by lying about your country. You Tube should be getting x a month for your content, but lying you are getting it for y. Are you not stealing from Ytube by lying. I think you are splitting hairs here to suit your own agenda.
    Are you a Mod ?

    You are streaming illegally by giving false info, No ? Is stealing just morally wrong and not theft ? I am just being pedantic here just because you seem to write the rules to suit your argument. Is stealing a bar of chocolate stealing or morally wrong ?

    Thanks guys. I'm just at the stage of setting up the family group. I haven't used the VPN to sign up to YouTube yet. It won't let them into the family group as they're not in Ireland.

    I'll get them to try again next time they're back here.

    Most People likely wouldn't pay the 17.99 family plan but if you can get it for 2 euro it's worthwhile. So youtube are up money in the end.

    That like dipping someones pocket and just stealing 5 euro instead of the 25 euro that was there. By your logic they are still up 20euro because you didn't steal the lot ?? Really !:confused:

    I had no problem signing up via Indian vpn and adding family later.

    Thanks OP.

    Super bargain and as mentioned already, it will be hard to top that in 2021!

    I signed up for a single account as i'm the only person that really watches it at home. Other than the kids but i dont want them having free reign on YT at their age.

    Is it easy enough to upgrade to a family account later or messy?

    Also, not only has the OP opened YT Premium to me, but this thread has forced me into trying a VPN which ive been putting off for ages, so thank you.

    No to the Netflix thread :D

    €1.71 a month for a family sub is serious value!

    Hi all. Just a quick bit of what i found out to set family members to share subscritpion.
    Ireland:
    I set up a family member before signing off, no problem.
    Also added an Irish member after and there seems to be no issues there.
    Abroad:
    after subscription i had to create new gmail accounts myself, add as family members in google, accept and then pass on login details and or the actual gmail account.
    I hope this helps someone who needs it
