TIDAL (Equiv to Spotify) for 1.11/month SEE OP POST

Darwin

I think you revert to a 30 day free trial, but I can't be sure about that. Hoping I can get payment accepted again once my "free" sub eventually expires.

63 cent this month.

The Argentine Peso will be worth nothing soon at the rate its falling.

To those having problems with payments a buddy of mine pointed me towards this info (doubtcha Ferg!): https://www.reddit.com/r/TIdaL/comments/10t4z3p/tidal_argentina_billing_issues/

Due to recent changes in the way Visa handles Argentine Peso (ARS) currency exchange, our payment processor will only allow cards that have been issued by an Argentine bank for the foreseeable future. Depending on what country you currently reside in, there are a couple of options available: 

If you currently live in Argentina and are using a VISA card that was not issued by an Argentine bank, please update your payment method to a VISA card that was issued in Argentina. Failure to update your payment method may result in a billing failure, and ultimately in the cancellation of your subscription.

If you have moved to a different country, you’ll need to create a new TIDAL account that is registered under a different username and in the country you currently reside in. Once your new account is created, we can help transfer over all of your playlists and favorites. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

So seems like Visa is out as an option, which is why people using Mastercards are having better luck. That said, I did try it with an American Express card (!) and it got declined as well.

that will happen for a while with the failed payments before it closes the sub

baingal nancer

Ah well, was great while it lasted

ubermick

Yeah, last chance saloon here for myself, I signed up for a Clevercard Mastercard and got the same error message as I did with multiple Visas, an American Express, and a prepaid Visa, all through tunnelbear's Argentinian VPN.

N26 mastercard works

Give it a try after it actually stops working, I couldn't get any cards to work until it had stopped working, then the revolut virtual mastercard worked and payment went through straight away.

markad1

baingal nancer

I've changed the revolut virtual 3 times there, got it working on the 4tg attempt haha, strange but I'm not complaining back in now

ImportMeHappy

Hadn't realised my payment had failed until today, went on to the website and paid using the same Revolut card I setup with last June, went through first time at a steep 59c!

will only work with mastercards apparently

ubermick

I think I figured it out - or rather someone on reddit did. The issue isn't the cards or the VPN, it's Apple. People using Macs weren't able to sign up or update their cards at all, and someone figured out it's because your Apple ID geoblocks it.

So fired up Windows, into Tidal with the VPN set to Argentina, entered in the Clevercard Mastercard I snagged - which was rejected on both previous computers I tried it with - and absolutely plain sailing, all signed up and straight in.

I'd loaded €35 on it, so should be covered for... four years or so?! Great stuff!

Darwin

My sub will simply not renew until it expires fully. I got mine to renew last month using no vpn and a single use visa virtual card (revolut). I’m getting nagging messages again on tidal about payment errors, so I will see if I can renew again this month once the sub runs out.

Darwin

Yes but Revolut are no longer giving me the single use Mastercard option (unless I am missing something?)

Enrico Palazzo

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120614391#Comment_120614391

Wouldn't you rather use the multi-use virtual card to not to have to re-enter a new single-use card number every month?

Darwin

Of course I would, but it doesn't work any more for some reason. I could only renew using the single use card. My subscription expires at midnight tomorrow, so I'll post back on what does and doesn't work for renewing.

Using Argentinian VPN (KeepSolid) but still seeing $ and Euro prices. What is the knack to seeing the correct currency?

I had the same problem with PureVPN, Tunnel Bear worked fine for me and you can use the free version.

Thanks will try that.

DopeTech

Turns out it was working showing the $99 as Argentina use the dollar symbol for their currency too. ARS$99= 40c at the moment!

The Nal

57c this month

DopeTech

Question for anybody using it for a few months. Do the recommendations improve as I still see a lot of Latin recommendations in my playlists. Does it eventually learn or is this just one minor inconvenience for buying via Argentina.

Yeah, they do. You will still see the odd Latin thing but not too much.
