    Which is the best value region at the moment?

    Paying about 12/12 euro with Turkey (I think!) at the moment.

    Turkey for the top plan is like 6 euro odd. No way you're paying that much.

    I now feel fleeced by UB, but don't see a way around this.

    Switch to PTSB for banking?

    Use Curve or Revolut. Avoiding FX fees really is straightforward.

    Some people are reporting that Netflix is not accepting adding Revolut cards to their accounts. It’s working fine for me but I set mine up ages ago.

    In the grand scheme of things even using an Irish bank Issued card you’re still getting 50%~ (depending on plan obviously) discount.

    :-) which is why I'm not feeling hard done by when reading some boardies are paying ~1e less than me per month.

    Yes, i was in the same boat, but once the time comes for card renewal, it will no longer work. Revolut worked for me fine for about a year till my card expired and then the new one would not work.

    It's probably because most Revolut cards are coded as prepaid and Netflix has probably blocked prepaid cards. Curve is coded as a debit card so should work without issue.

    I can vouch for Curve, works perfect for me.

    Just signed up for the free curve card, registered my revolut card with it!

    Trying to recall best way to change, as my region ( I actually can’t remember!) is essentially the same price as Ireland.

    Cancel the subscription ( giving the 30 days notice)

    After 30 dats, using a vpn, sign up again using same details but through a different country (for example, Argentina).

    Disable VPN, back to normal

    Have I missed anything?

    Haven't seen it said you need to wait 30 days, just let it expire and resubscribe from a different country

    I'm late to the party on this one.

    Is Argentina now the cheapest country? How much is it there?
    Currently paying €7.99

    So I just cancel
    Use VPN to set up Argentinian account
    Disable VPN
    ??

    I just got charged €3.74 yesterday for the 2 screen plan. I'm on Turkey.


    Yeah just cancel and wait for current sub to run out. Then just use a VPN for Turkey/Argentina and re subscribe. You won't need to enter card details since I assume you already have one saved on the account. You don't need VPN for watching, it's just for re subscribing.

    I used Browsec years ago to switch mine to Turkey. Should still work. There's a free trial you can avail of to make the switch and then cancel it after.

    Just buy enough to get you up to your Revolut expiry date as apparently Netflix don’t accept Revolut cards anymore. I’ve three different Turkish packages and all are being paid with Revolut cards without any issues, however I haven’t tested any account in well over a year.

    I pay 5.60 odd every month consistently via Argentina. That's for the full HD 4 user package.

    How much is the turkey sub? I might buy lira for future proof

    Seeing revolut cards not being accepted anymore for new accounts, once expired?

    Has anyone here set up recently on Revolut?

    If you've an issue using Revolut with Netflix, just get a Curve card and link your Revolut card to that.

    hi guys, no more free trial any more?


  • Registered Users Posts: 220 ✭✭KingCong


    Neither Revolut or Curve are working for me since my last Revolut card expired, even my normal debit card isn't working. Anyone else having this problem?

    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.
