    Even on the Irish Netflix it doesn't work? With a new card I had to sub to Irish Netflix first for 1 month and then switched to Turkey after the month was up.

    I've just registered with revolut and curve too and was hoping to use these for Netflix. So just to clarify, you would use curve as payment method on Irish Netflix first, and then can you change the region on that Netflix account to Turkey after the first month?

    Yeah if the Irish one accepts your card and you pay for a month's sub then you're good to go. Just cancel it after and wait for the sub to expire. The card should already be saved on your account so when you're doing the switch to Turkey, all you have to do is select the plan and hit Subscribe.



    Therefore there should no longer be any trouble with it refusing to accept your card since it's already on your account.

    Great thanks for that info. I took out an Irish subscription last month (due to renew end of Aug) so I'll try updating my payment method on that to Curve for the Aug payment then cancel the subscription once that payment goes out.

    Maybe that's where I went wrong as I just got notification I was refunded, I signed up from Brazil with my CC on my actual account.

    So I need to subscribe with my card in my country, cancel and then resubscribe with the same card using a vpn.

    My next payment due to be taken out is the 20th of August

    So is it best to cancel subscription before or after the payment is taken. And wait the 30 days from the last payment to subscribe again.



    And then select VPN for Turkey and subscribe again using the same card.


    TIA

    You're saying next payment, so that means you've already paid the previous month? If yes, then you can cancel it now and wait a few days until it expires and then make the switch to Turkey as you said. As long as you've made a payment for a single month and the card you want to use is saved on your account, then you are good to go.


    If no, then yes you'll have to pay for a month's sub, cancel it immediately, wait 30 days for it to expire and then switch.

    James thanks very much for your help and it says I can continue watching until the 15th of August.

    So I can subscribe to Turkish version on the 16th

    Is anyone using this with the Indian Disney Plus? A quick Google suggests you can get annual subscription for about 20 dollars

    It seems to be integrated as Disney+ Hotstar. I was trying to sign up but you need an Indian mobile number to get a code. The mobile number is linked to your account so an internet based number is not an option.

    Yes exactly. As I said before, your card should already be saved on your account so no need to enter it when you're making the switch.

    Guys sorry if this has been asked before but i have a question:

    Myself and a family member are currently on the 2 screen HD netflix plan via netflix turkey.

    2 other family members would like to share our netflix plan so we can uprade to the 4k UHD netflix plan. These two other family members currently pay for "regular" Netflix. Do they have to wait until their regular plans expire to join our netflix turkey, or should i just upgrade to the 4 screen plan and give them my username and password?

    Does each member have their own email and password or we all use the same login?

    Thanks lads

    You should iovrade your account to the 4 screen one. You can share your login details then. Their own accounts don't matter, and should simply be cancelled.

    If memory serves, you can change from 2 to 4 screen plan on Turkish account without using vpn too...

    Glad it worked out for you. Which card is on your account? Revolut?

    No no, just curious if they're still accepting Revolut cards is all.

    Seems to be the case. Existing Revolut cards keep working, but eventually you'll need to update the details when new card issued (when existing one expires) at which point you'll need to take action.

    I cancelled my Mexican netflix account to move to a Turkish one but they wouldn't re-accept my revolut card. How does this curve card work I signed up do I need to wait for a card to arrive before I can start using it or is there a virtual card

    Hi folks. Having the same issue. Had my Revolut card linked to my Irish Netflix. Netflix expired this morning so I set up the VPN and it won't accept my Revolut card, AIB debit card, AIB credit card. I'm currently downloading Curve to see if that will work for me.

    Any advice greatly received!

    My goddamn card details got stolen so I had to cancel it - now Netflix won't let me update the payment method with any card, Revolut or otherwise. I read some posts on here saying the only option is to start a new Irish account and then change the region later but what pain in the arse.

    Contacted Netflix support and they first told me my bank was declining the transaction, then when I confirmed this wasn't the case they told me my card is "not qualified for the service" and they're getting a "generic decline", they don't know the reason why and there's nothing they can do about it.

    Looks like I'll have to go through the whole thing again. :(

    Same here. Bloody annoying!! I tried Revolut, Curve then my AIB Debit Card, AIB Credit Card.. nothing.

    I did manage to sign in to the Brazilian Netflix but it was asking to send a text to my Brazilian number which I obviously don't have. Wonder is there a way around that?

    I gave up and registered my AIB credit card with the Irish one, going to cancel and see if I can sign up to the Turkish one next month as Revolut didn't work. I'd say they have some sort of check now in the background to ensure the card is in Turkey.

    It's such a rip-off !!!

    I'm pretty sure that you can just use the same account to go back onto an Irish subscription, and then go back to Turkey the following month.

    Just let your subscription expire, log in next day with Turkish vpn and update your card details. Had the same issue, my revolut card expired and Netflix wouldn't take any of my cards (revolut, boi debit, credit,kbc, curve...) I just let it expire, logged in next day and updated it with my curve metal.

    Just tried it there too

    Revolut, BOI Credit & UB Debit all not accepted
    When I got to the payments page I disabled the VPN and it took the card but next screen had it back to the proper price

    Has anyone tried the gift card option?
