    Therein lies the issue. You had to have a payment card setup whilst on Ireland before your move.

    Is my best bet signing up my new account to an Irish sub for a month then try changing the payment method to revolut before the month runs out?

    Others here might be better up on this but my understanding is yes but actually use the rev for the month too. Pick the 1 screen and you'll get a free upgrade to 2 screen for first month. Ensure your phone number is verified.

    My sub expired this morning.

    Loaded up VPN Unlimited on my Mac and went to incognito mode on Chrome.

    Tried to login to Netflix but I’m getting this error message:

    “ Incorrect password. Please try again or you can reset your password.”

    The password is definitely correct because as soon as I disconnect the VPN, it accepts the same credentials.

    Tried on Safari as well as on my phone and on 4G data too. No luck.

    I kept getting incorrect password as well on the computer. While using Chrome (both normal and incognito), but it worked fine with Edge. Password was accepted. (normal mode)

    OK I set up a new virtual card with Revolut and that worked on the Irish sub. I'll follow the instructions in the OP and hopefully be on Netflix Turkey next month.

    Maybe a leaky VPN or the way your number is stored i.e 08x xxx xxxx instead of 00353 8x xxx xxxx

    Just throwing it out there no actual proof its either of those.

    I haven't moved to Turkey yet but am planning on it in a month or two when my mexican currency runs out. I have been following this thread as a result. Irish phone number doesn't usually seem to be an issue with Turkey. I'm sure someone will be along who can offer you some help

    I only get that far if the sign in button with email & password is used - it
    appears to create a new account despite using the prior password and bank details - hence seeking the Turkish number.


    Adding the email and clicking get started should take you into the
    old account if it accepts the password - won't do it for me currently
    on 5 VPNs (including ProtoVPN Basic & Hola).

    It accepts the password if you use Edge browser, (it did for me), wouldn't work with Chrome.

    My sub ended today after initial 30day signup. Went to renew with Turkey but keep getting "There appears to be a problem with your the payment method you are trying to use"

    Have a Revolut card on the account

    Tried Argentina and Mexico, but wont accept password, so cant even sign into it with them.

    Tried Windscribe, NordVPN and CyberGhost VPNs

    Hi, i just signed up for Argentina after the Turkey was not working. The amount they charged is higher than it is mentioned in the plan. I took the premium plan and they charged 1097 AER, ie, 10 euro. Is this the extra 4 euros any surplus?

    I think they introduced a digital tax or something like that on streaming sites in Argentina

    Login with your irish ip and then use vpn

    That started a while back. Strangely it doesn't apply to YouTube.

    Yep you can. I did it a couple of months back. Same process as if moving from Ireland.

    If that fails move to Ireland for a month & try Turkey again.

    I've already converted a years worth of Turkish currency in revolut while it's good. I'll be moving there in a month or so

    Anyone know does this method work for Disney+? My annual sub will renew on March for €69 but in Argentina it’s €33

    Just to say I tried this today. I tried Argentina first using nord vpn on laptop. It took me to the payments page. It declined as my card was from a different country of origin. I also tried the American Disney. That was $6.99. I used the PayPal option with my revolut linked to it. That charged me €5.76. It processed but then I got an error saying billing error. The money was not taken from my revolut so I don’t think it can be done, easily

    Google play store is putting the foot down on Netflix, Disney etc in that they're annoyed all payment is taken outside of Google. If that goes through, we could see the option to pay via Google play for things like Disney and hence the payment card issue might go.

    Pay disney US. Going up to 70 dollars per year. That's only 58 euro per year. You can still access star in Ireland even with a US account
