    Just got an email this morning to say the Turkish 4K plan is rising to 41.99 instead of 39.99. An extra 2 Lira. This is unacceptable and no longer a bargain. Cancelled my account!!


    * 2 lira is approx 31c and reaction above is sarcastic :pac:

    **slightly off topic, buy a similar theme**

    Signed up for YouTube premium via vpn set to India.

    When I send my invites out (family plan 2.50e pm) when I try and add members, it says something along the lines of the plan manager is in a different country and they're unable to join the plan.

    Tried using a VPN (the same VPN I used to set it up) set to India, but nothing (on the invited persons phone) but no joy.

    My Google account is set to UK (changed it in an attempt to get Deezer to work with my Google home) my son's Google play account is listed as Ireland.


    I'm wondering if anyone knows the quick and easiest resolution to this?

    I added family to my Google account years ago to share apps. They were able to use YouTube premium (India) as soon as I signed up.

    I think that is something to do with the credit card you use.

    Has anyone either opened a new account or switched to turkey since this comment? Did you require a Turkish phone number

    I did, and I was unable to get past the phone number requirement using a vpn, but when I used tor browser and set it to have turkey as exit node it worked fine.

    In case you don't realise it, YouTube premium will give you access to Google Play music.

    I've done this for Deezer family. Subscribed from Malaysia over a year ago. Less than€5 per month for family sub. Saving 10 every month. Only problem is all the playlists and top 10's or top 100 tracks are Malaysian. Just moved my playlists from Spotify using some website. It works better in my car. Spotify wouldn't let me shop when connected to car stereo

    Just signed up to Netflix Turkey using Tor browser with exit node TR as mentioned above (thanks!). It does ask for a Turkish mobile number but this is just for password recovery I just ignored it as the subscription had already gone through on my Irish Mastercard no problem. Cost 42tl per month after free month.

    I've just made the switch over to Turkey without any problems. Used my paid-for VPN to connect via a Turkish server, then disconnected when it asked for the mobile number verification. Before disconnecting, the field had been pre-filled with my existing (non-Turkish) mobile number and country flag, so I'm not sure it was strictly necessary, but I did it anyway (opening a second incognito window and pasting in the address of the mobile number verification page).

    So should I bother about switching from Mexico to Turkey? I'm paying €7.97 for the mid level sub at the moment.

    Do it, I switched from Mexico to Turkey a year ago. Despite price increases and some recent strengthening in TRY you're still looking at less than €5.00 per month for the exact same mid-level sub

    Thanks lads, that adds up over the long term alright. Just checked and my VPN provider (Newshosting) does not have a Turkish server. I'll probably change them when the sub is up, I'll remember to pick a provider that does when the time comes.

    So how does someone switch country? I'm paying out of Canada at the moment. I've got friends and family on my sub though so don't any down time if possible.
