YouTube Premium thread SEE OP

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to sign up for family using getflix vpn and turkey and revolut visa

I am seeing the correct value in turkish lira but when i attempt to buy family, i enter name, revolut card but when i start typing a fake address it just shows Turkey for address , i can't edit it after and i get below error after i verify payment in Revolut app. I've tried with VPN on / off for payment but fails

Transaction declined. This purchase requires a payment method from your billing country. [OR-REH-05]

Any ideas?

Thanks

Visa won't work, have you got a virtual master card with Revolut? Not the disposable card.

Nice one. My individual Argentinian plan through Revolut master card is still tipping along nicely, €1.49 this month☺️

Try it using bluestack or other virtualization or on your mobile directly.

That usually works while web etc. fail, see my post YouTube Premium thread SEE OP - Page 51 — boards.ie - Now Ye're Talkin'

I think the Turkish sub was giving me problems, maybe was asking for a different payment method but I can’t remember, I’m paying less than €2.50 for the Argentina family sub

You don't need bluestacks, if you are lucky it works on your phone/pc without a problem.

But if you fail consistently and you get the "Transaction declined. This purchase requires a payment method from your billing country. [OR-REH-05]" consistently, then you can try to use bluestacks or some other virtualization which basically emulates a new phone on your PC.

• You download bluestacks.
• You start bluestacks, it creates a new virtual phone.
• You log into your google account.
• You download you preferred VPN from the play store within that virtual phone (urban vpn is free and usually works).
• You start your preferred VPN on that virtual phone (not your PC)
• You download YouTube within that virtual phone.
• You visit the "subscription" page within Youtube on that virtual phone.
• You buy yourself a year (or monthly) YouTube premium within that virtual phone.
• You validate that the subscription is active.
• You terminate the VPN on the virtual phone.
• You log out of your google account on the virtual phone.
• Once you have done that you close the virtual phone.
• You un-install bluestacks hence trashing the virtual phone.
• You visit your google account on your PC/real phone and remove the virtual phone so that it does not show in future when you try to install software via the web interface.

Again, there is no need to use it, but if you want to have a way that usually works than this is one way to do it, it's a little bit work intensive (and don't forget to remove the virtual phone from your google account) but it's a way to get a cheap subscription, it also works fine for the other cheaper Turkey/India/Argentina subscriptions via the play store.

Can't get passed this at all now. Used to be relatively straightforward. I have tried Bluestacks, revolut visa, virtual mastercard and disposable mastercard trying to pay monthly for Argentina or yearly for India

Than your only option might be to try it with a NEW account set up as Turkey in the first place and go through the pain to use that only for youtube and resubscribe to everything.

Have been trying for a few days now to renew my annual Turkey subscription for another 12 months with no success. Tried on both laptop and mobile using VPN Unlimited. I had added a Turkey address to my Google account plus Revolut Visa payment method in advance but kept getting the OR-REH-05 message. Tried multiple browsers, including ingognito modes.

I decided to give it one more try on my mobile, turned off Location services on phone (not sure if this step was necessary), opened my VPN and connected to Turkey and rather than going to Youtube.com in a browser I opened the Youtube app (not sure why I didn't do this originally). Anyway, success, my annual membership renewal went through no problem.

299.99 TRY (€10.51) for another 12 months 😀

Out of curiosity, why did you have to renew? I pay monthly and it just keeps coming out, I don't need to think about it.

You're probably right, considering it's really only saving a total of about €2 over the 12 months by paying annually instead of monthly. 😐️

It also means you can use a little money-saving tip.

Google are very nice about you missing 3 days i think it is, you can get 3 days of free premium every time by not paying for a couple of days. That moves your subscription date giving you essentially free premium time, with not a huge amount of effort.

However if you're complaining about doing it once a year, its probably not worth it for you. I dont do it because im too lazy, but noticed it before while cautiously trying out Argentina for a little while a few years ago. I didnt want to activate automatic renewal in case i forgot about it or they figured out im not over there, as their laws were being talked about changing.

Anyway, a tip nonetheless.

Have you tried a Clevercard?
