Welcome to the ultimate guide of the Google One subscription


Updates:

  • 28/06/2023 - New corrected AUD prices, which reflects the significant drop due to Turkey's current economy situation (this deal is an ALL TIME LOW!) All prices in this guide are current as of 28 June 2023.**
  • 28/06/2023 - Additional methods on sign-ups (for those who could not previously sign up via Google Pay, I've now found the solution by using a Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard).
  • 28/06/2023 - At the end of this post are many of the detailed guides I've created.

Reposting this deal from last year just in case anyone missed it, however this post will be better than the previous one and will include more detailed information to help those trying to jump on board the ship. Oh, and prices are even cheaper.

Modern problems require modern solutions. Like Xbox Game Passes, Spotify Premium, Youtube, Netflix, Discord, Google One, Microsoft 365, relocating (virtually of course) to Turkey is usually the best option, with some methods saving hundreds or thousands of dollars each year added up.

YES - you can share your Google One subscription with your Google Family Group, however, this may affect those who use an Android device (or any device that utilises the Google Play store). If anyone in your Google Family has an Android device, please see NOTES section below the end of the post description BEFORE signing up to this deal

Instructions (No Current Subscription)

Please read the following instructions carefully. I've tested it on iPhone and PC (windows), so here's my experience - and it took literally minutes.

Note: If you plan on sharing your Google One subscription with any family members (or others), you must add your Australian family members / accounts into a Google family group before signing up to Turkey Google One subscription, otherwise you will get the following error: "Looks like you're in a different country from the family manager". To add family members, go to: https://families.google.com/families

Step 1: Add any family members to your Google Family Group if needed: https://families.google.com/families

Step 2: Add a Google payment profile for Turkey if you don't have one yet. If needed, use a fake address generator to obtain a random Turkey address for the payment profile. You can create a new payment profile by following these steps: go to https://pay.google.com/gp/w/u/0/home/settings and clicking the pen icon next to "Country/Region" and a link to create a new profile should pop up. You can then add details for the Turkish profile.

Step 3: Connect a VPN to the server in Turkey (see Notes section for suggestions)

Step 4: Go to https://one.google.com/about/plans and if it shows currency in TRY (Turkish Lira), continue choosing your membership. Pay using a credit/debit card (preferedly with no international fees)

  • Possible Problem 1: Prices are still showing in AUD or pricing initially shows in Turkish Lira but switches back to AUD after you select your plan
  • Possible Solution 1: You might see that the 3 plan columns show Australian pricing, but after selecting the desired plan and going to next screen, it might change to TRY currency. If this happens, then great - just proceed and pay. If it stays in AUD pricing, double check your VPN service or switch to another one. If this fails, you may have to delete your Australian payment profile (you can always make a new one after, but be aware that deleting your Australian profile may destroy all your Google Play Credits and possibly your previous app purchases as well - See Notes section below). Deleting your Australian payments profile will only affect you if you (the person signing up) is an Android user.

  • Possible Problem 2: Error message when paying "Your transaction can't be completed. To continue this transaction, secure your account. Learn more about securing accounts"

  • Possible Solution 2: Turn off VPN then try to pay again. If this doesn't work, delete your debit/credit card off the payment profile and redo all the steps again - when you go to pay it will ask you to enter a new card - try and use a different one and it should work.

Step 5: Fly back home and turn off your VPN

Step 6: To share with family members, you need to turn on family sharing after signing up to share the storage. To do this, go to https://one.google.com/settings, then click "Manage Family Settings" and toggle it on.

Step 7: YOU'RE DONE! WOOO! Enjoy your savings :)


Instructions (Transferring from a different country)

Please read the following instructions carefully. I've tested it on iPhone and PC (windows), so here's my experience - and it took literally minutes.

Probably not the best to transfer as I’m not sure if signing up while having an active subscription will stack on, and there’s no point paying for a whole year if you still got like 5 months left (for example). If you have a current Australian Google One sub, best to cancel it, let the sub period expire then sign up fresh using Instructions above (rather than the one below)

Note: If you plan on sharing your Google One subscription with any family members (or others), you must add your Australian family members / accounts into a Google family group before signing up to Turkey Google One subscription, otherwise you will get the following error: "Looks like you're in a different country from the family manager". To add family members, go to: https://families.google.com/families

Step 1: Go to https://play.google.com/store/account/subscriptions, locate your Google One subscription, click "Manage", then proceed to "Cancel Subscription". Once cancelled, the current subscription will continue until the end of the billing period. But you now have an option to subscribe back to Google One.

Step 2: Add any family members to your Google Family Group if needed: https://families.google.com/families

Step 3: Add a Google payment profile for Turkey if you don't have one yet. If needed, use a fake address generator to obtain a random Turkey address for the payment profile. You can create a new payment profile by following these steps: go to https://pay.google.com/gp/w/u/0/home/settings and clicking the pen icon next to "Country/Region" and a link to create a new profile should pop up. You can then add details for the Turkish profile.

Step 4: Connect a VPN to the server in Turkey (see Notes section for suggestions)

Step 5: Go to https://one.google.com/about/plans and if it shows currency in TRY (Turkish Lira), continue choosing your membership. Pay using a credit/debit card (preferedly with no international fees)

  • Possible Problem 1: Prices are still showing in AUD (or whatever India if you have Youtube Premium via India or pricing initially shows in Turkish Lira but switches back to AUD after you select your plan
  • Possible Solution 1: You might see that the 3 plan columns show Australian pricing, but after selecting the desired plan and going to next screen, it might change to TRY currency. If this happens, then great - just proceed and pay. If it stays in AUD pricing, double check your VPN service or switch to another one. If this fails, you may have to delete your Australian payment profile (you can always make a new one after, but be aware that deleting your Australian profile may destroy all your Google Play Credits and possibly your previous app purchases as well - See Notes section below).

Notes (Important)

  • If everyone in the Google Family is an iPhone user, just follow the instructions above - there will be no problems, as deleting your Australian payment profile will not affect you at all.

If at least one account in the Google Family uses an Android Device/Google Play Store, please read this:

  • Once you sign up to Google One via Turkey, every Google account in the family will relocate to Turkey, even if the other accounts don’t have a Turkey payment profile. The only fix that I have seen right now is to delete the Turkey payment profile on the account that was used to sign up to Google One - that will revert all accounts to the Australian Play Store. However, be aware that deleting your Australian profile may destroy all your Google Play Credits and possibly your previous app purchases as well. However, we can think of a workaround below to make sure everyone in the family has access to the Australian Play Store after signing up to Google One:

    • If anyone in the family has an Android device using the Google Play Store:

    We know that anyone in the family group can sign up to Google One and share it with the rest of the family. Given that it is likely the person signing up has to delete their Australian payment profile, use the account who is not an android (one who uses an iPhone/iOS device) to sign up (that way, deleting the Australian payment profile won't affect anything as iPhone users don't utilise the Google Play Store anyway). Do not use the family manager's account to sign up (if they are an Android user) because deleting the Australian payments profile could mean you may lose complete access to your Google Play Credits and possibly your previous app purchases. Follow the instructions section above, making sure you add a Turkey payment profile and remove your Australian payment profile. After signing up to Google One, share it with your family group as per instructions. At the end, delete your Turkey payment profile (and add a new Australian one in if you wish) and everyone in the family will have access again to the Australian Play Store (including the Family Manager, who was unaffected by this method). By deleting your Turkey payment method, the Google One subscription effectively cancels (you will still get the full year access before it expires) and you’ll just need to sign up again and redo this every year

  • If the above method does not work for some reason and you really need Australian apps, I guess the workaround for this would be to create another Google account purely for downloading apps from the Google Play Store

UPDATE: According to atlas:

To avoid all your devices changing to the Turkish play store, all you need to do is:

  1. Make sure the family manager is an Australian account
  2. Use a different account (ie. Burner account) to join the family and setup Turkish payment profile
  3. Setup Google One, share, and away you go.

Result: Main account gets shared storage and keeps Australian profile.

  • Most VPN services will connect to Turkey, unlike India. Those include NordVPN, Private Internet Access (PIA), free Windscribe Chrome extension (recommended), ExpressVPN, etc. If one doesn't work, use another VPN

    • If you're using Windscribe and it shows different currencies: keep turning the windscribe on and off. Each time you don't get TRY, turn it off and on, then refresh the Google One sign up page. You'll eventually land on TRY. Go to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ each time you turn it off/on and see if you land on Istanbul

FAQ

Q: Can the family manager see who is using what amount of storage?
A: Yes, you can view the breakdown here: https://one.google.com/storage

Q: Does the Family Manager have to be the one signing up to Google One?
A: No, anyone in the family can sign up to Google One and share it with the rest of the family.

Q: Will I get banned by Google?
A: There’s always a chance, however only a tiny number of people (<5) have actually gotten suspended by Google (see linked previous post in OP). Proceed at your own risk.

  • HI guys, when I make a burner account thats been added to the family gorup, I deleted the australian profile and kept the turkey one. But when I go to sign up its in AUD and says talk to your plan manager?

    • That means you're trying to access the plan pages from an account that isn't the current holder of Google One but is a part of the family share

      • Ah I see, I managed to pass that but its still in AUD and showing that 'something went wrong on our end' Still gonna take some time to crack this one looks like

  • anyone managed to renew? mine is due in a few days. my turkey account is showing talk to your manager…what do i do?create another new account?

    Do we have a few days after plan expired to renew or i should really try to do it before it is due?

  • Thanks, works a treat with a burner account. Just have to flick the switch in your settings to make sure it's shares to the family.

  • Once you sign up to Google One via Turkey, every Google account in the family will relocate to Turkey, even if the other accounts don’t have a Turkey payment profile. The only fix that I have seen right now is to delete the Turkey payment profile on the account that was used to sign up to Google One - that will revert all accounts to the Australian Play Store.

    Hi all. So I made my burner account the family manager. All the family users are showing turkey play store at the moment. I deleted the turkey payment profile and was forced to create a new Australian payment profile to "transfer" the Google one subscription. It's been 2-3 days already but the main accounts are still showing turkey play store. What else do I need to do to revert the accounts back to Australian play store?

  • Hi, so, a couple questions:

    1. If I just make a Turkish account, will all potential risk to my normal Google account be avoided?

    2. Can you use the 10% cashback bonus on the Turkish account in the Google Store? Or will it try to shop through Turkey?

  • Can anyone connect to Turkey using Windscribe? Everytime it just connects to Iran or Nigeria

  • I can see the order coming through with TRY but when I press subscribe button in android device, its saying "Something went wrong. Couldn't complete your purchase. Check that you have the correct country selected in your Play account". But my google play was logged onto an account with turkey payment profile(and country, but using latitude mastercard). Anyone encountered this before?

  • @I Smell Pennies, I don't have a current Google One subscription yet, but my main Google account is currently part of someone else's Google Family (due to sharing Youtube Premium).
    Is it possible to sign up to the Google One in TRY without leaving that other family group? I'm halfway through paying my annual subscription and didnt want to waste it if possible.

  • Google appears to be blocking my VPN.

  • Wouldn't work with my account so had to create a new Gmail specially for it whilst in Turkey to get it working

  • Can any one help please ?

    i am getting an error:

    2 TB (Google One)
    Couldn't complete your purchase. Check that you have the correct country selected in your Play account. Learn more

    i used the VPM ( located in Turkey ), payment address in google profile is a turkish address but using the CBA debit card.

    • Just a guess, but i'd say it will be CBA blocking the transaction from going through. I had success using my Turkish prepaid Mastercard via OlduBil. Best of luck!

      • Thanks for the update, what is the process to get the Oldubil ?

        • ok i downloaded OLDubill but now trying to put money on it but not working FML lol any help anyone on the process

        • Oldubil no longer accepts transfers from international banks.

          I had luck topping up my card using Binance P2P trading. Refer to my comment in the Spotify Premium comments for details

    • yupe tried with revolut, citibank and hsbc and all failed.

  • Thanks @I Smell Pennies for the writeup and @atlas for the Google family account advice! I've upgraded my account successfully using my OlduBil turkish mastercard. Worked perfectly. Cheers!

  • +1 mate, thank you for all your hard work!

  • +1

    I have spent HOURS trying to figure this out - the blocker is not having a Turkish virtual card to pay with. Oldubil no longer lets you transfer funds from debit/credit cards any more.
    Is anyone able to recommend another way?

  • +4

    Looks like the solution does not work anymore. Google is blocking payment using australian bank credit card - tried HSBC, Citibank, Revolut for google one plan.

    I can see Turkish lira for the plan but couldn't complete the transaction, payment kept getting denied.

    • +2

      looks like the case.
      I also tried NAB, ING both credit and debit card plus google play giftcard in AUD and TRY nothing worked. Can't load money to Oldubil so not sure if that'll work.
      They've blocked everything!
      I've just switched to 100gb paying in AUD :(

  • +2

    Not getting this deal to work anymore, weird cos Spotify is still taking money from my OlduBil account. Has Google patched this now?

  • +2

    Question: Did anyone try paying via Turkish Gift card ?

    • Doesn't work sadly:

      https://i.imgur.com/zdPW1jf.png

      Tried for science to buy the smallers Google Play Turkey region code and redeem when trying to purchase the 2TB yearly. Sends me the above error. Google really has closed all the loopholes.

      Guess we need to wait to find the next cheapest country.

  • +3

    After spending hours trying to get this to work, I finally got everything working. Unfortunately, by the next day, the account was suspended. While there is every chance I made a mistake, I do not recommend you chance it on an account you intend to use as a main account. It appears Google has very much discovered this and clamped down.

    • Ouch. Did they give a reason for the suspension?

      • +1

        Potentially breaking ToS, basically. Suspicious activity, I believe was the term. I was smart enough to use a burner account, so I'm totally fine, but yeah. Frustrating that this no longer works. How dare Google make money!

    • That sucks mate. What payment method did you end up using?

      • +1

        Just my Mastercard. Through Up. A lot of people were having issues but with Up at least it went through fine. Didn't last, unfortunately!

    • Thanks for sharing this mate. I'm up for renewal on my Turkish family member account and am not able to change plans with my Revolut card. In the process of getting a FUPS card and then will use that to reload Oludubil card and hopefully that will work. How did you get everything working?
      When I took an old burner gmail and tried to change payment country with Revolut to Turkey, I was told that Google demanded govt ID and when I refused to comply it made it so my gmail is out of space despite using 0gb out of 15gb storage. Clamped down indeed!

      Also, I made a reddit thread quoting you to inform people about this new development. Seems like everything was working as of 25 Aug but stopped working on 26 Aug onwards.

      • +1

        Interesting, very strange that they demanded government ID. They asked no such thing of me! Everything worked smoothly, I got my main account as the family manager and invited the turkey account and a few others. Then the Turkey account gave everybody else in the family the Google One benefits (you do not have to be the family manager to do so, it turns out). Next day, it was just gone. Not exactly sure I did anything special, maybe some (profanity) with the VPN let me do it at all. If you do get caught when the family's in there, don't worry, only the turkey account should be in trouble. I didn't bother appealing, I highly doubt I would have gotten away with lying there. Hope this helped! I've also notified the OP of this.

        Supposedly a different (still very cheap) country DOES work, according to a poster further down, but I'm afraid to risk doing this again, so I think I'll just ride out the basically free (like $9 total) 3 month trial they're doing atm and see if anything further develops by then.

        • Yeah and they restricted the account until such ID was provided, even if I tried to change the locaiton away from Turkey. I did the same last year, main account was the family manager and the Turkey account was just a member but passed on the storage to everybody else. Thanks for your help! Did you pay with a FUPS or Oldubil? I'm hoping if I add an Oldubil card to my Turkey account then the renewal should hopefully go ahead (currently have a revolut on it) but not sure.

          • +1

            @OzzyManReviews: I paid with a regular bank card (Up Mastercard)! Never heard of FUPS and never used Oldubil. From what I've heard the latter is no longer viable as they stop you from doing transferring across countries (I believe?) Maybe just using a bank card was what screwed me over, but it seemed to work fine for others. It's a mixed bag, I think, but I think everyone can see now that this is patched. This method, at least.

            • @dongltron: Thanks for your help mate! Just coming here a couple weeks later to update you. I was up for renewal and was stressing that it wouldn't go thhrough and I wouldn't be able to receive emails etc etc. Well when the day came I noticed a charge on my card that didnt go through but a few hours later another charge that went through and I was able to successfully renew at the TRY price but I couldn't change the plan at all. Only continue on the same plan as before. I would still stay it is patched though. It will renew on old accounts but on new accounts they now ask for Turkish IDs which is what I experienced with another burner account.

              • @OzzyManReviews: Damn, yeah, that sucks. A new method will be developed soon enough, I'm sure.

    • Sorry to hear mate. What happens when the account is suspended, are you given a chance to download/move anything off? What happens to the Gmail access on the account as well?

      • Nah, it's okay, it was a burner account. No harm done to my main account, even though it was family linked to the burner. There was nothing on the account, but as far as I could tell all Google services were locked behind the deactivation message. Only option was to appeal. I didn't bother.

  • +2

    i don't think this works anymore… Google have made it that only local credit/debit card can subscribe to it it seems, and now that Oldubil can't be topped via CC/debit or transfers, seems like we're shit out of luck :(

    • I had luck topping up my card using Binance P2P trading. Refer to my comment here

      • Did your Oldubil work for Google One purchaes in the past few days?

        • +1

          Ah I haven't needed to try that because I already prepaid for a whole year's subscription

        • My oldubil worked for a recent YouTube Premium subscription (and my local aus card declined)

  • i think google's clamping down specifically on Turkey, i just tried with another more expensive region, same process as per OP and it worked (PHP)!

    • which region?

      • i am guessing they meant Philippines?

        • Yep Philippines, it's more expensive than turkey but cheaper than Australia 😅

          • @ayakabob: mind sharing the Philippines G1 sub pricings?

  • Im paying 30c a month for an account since this post, and dont use it. But ill keep it running for now.
    Its good for buying cheap games, apps

  • Hi..followed the steps. On payment screen I'm getting
    Your transaction can't be completed. Please visit the Help Centre for more information

    I've deleted all profiles I had with just Turkey one remaining.
    Had to add payment details again and it did deduct a small sum for check.
    Tried paying with and without vpn

    Any suggestions please?

    • +1

      I think you gotta try another region, had the same issue then tried Philippines and it worked with AU credit card

      But do note, it's more expensive than Turkey.

      I think google clamped down specifically on Turkey, possibly because it was ozbargained

      • thanks..which plan do you go for and how much in AUD did you have to pay?

    • This is happening to me too! Any suggestions will be appreciated!

      • this method has now been patched - only works if you had already set your country as turkey before they patched it!

        • So does this mean this deal is no longer obtainable unless we have Turkey set as the country?

          Also, are you really THE Ozzy Man?

  • Definitely NOT a matter of minutes as indicated in the post.
    I have a Bulgarian Netflix and Russian antivirus licenses and going for the cheapest (Turkey) is likely to get flagged, in fact I wasn't able to go ahead… so I'll take my chances with another country, thank you for the comprehensive post thought…

    • Update, still didn't work with other country like Russia.
      There are just so many reasons it wouldn't work…

      Google knows where you are, if you happen to have Android devices (Mobile or TV), if you use Youtube of Google Home, or if you have an existing Google account, then it is easy for them to know where you've been located for most of the time, hence it'll prompt you to pay in A$ regardless of your address and payment profile.

      I think the best way for this to work would be:
      1- Get a VPN on StackSocial (They have cheap lifetime VPN services)
      2- Connect to Russia
      3- Open an Incognito/Private Window on Brave/Chrome/Edge/Firefox (etc…) so there is no sessions cookies prior to starting the process
      4- Create a "new" google account, don't use the existing one!
      5- Subscribe to Google One
      6- Forget about your original Google account and all linked services/devices

      Outcome: that's way too cumbersome and not worth the hassle IMHO.
      Obviously you wouldn't have this issue with other companies but Google truly is in every young household already…

      • Also burner account doesn't work from Russia it appears:
        << 2 TB (Google One) // Google Play purchases are not supported in your country. Unfortunately you will not be able to complete purchases >>

      • The steps you've outlined is essentially what the original post is, minus the Turkey bit. You can definitely make Google think you're elsewhere, just as easily as any other service. I have multiple Google-connected devices in my home, no problem with the VPN. This method has just been patched by Google, as far as I can tell. I'm sure something else will come around. I've heard people having luck with other countries, some people it isn't working at all.

  • Hi, if anyone has other countries work for them please let me know :) it would be much appreciated, my turkey one has expired and Im struggling to find other storage options.
    Thanks!

    • Following…

  • +1

    Since no methods or Australian cards work, should mark deal expired?

    • Have you tried using your Oldubil card to make payment. I have just recently tested for a YouTube premium subscription and noted that my Australian card declined, but my Oldubil card was successful

  • Continue to use India Youtube famil deal from previous deal and had my Australian Google One expired this month, I am unable to upgrade my One with TRY account even though I have the required Turkish Payment Profile and a couple of good VPNs to connect to - keep getting price in AUD.
    Not in a position to delete my AU Payment profile as I have a ton on items on Google Play eventhough I am on iOS. And I definately need a Google One to share with family since I have YouTube family in that order.

  • It seems the party is over. I have googled and a lot of people reporting this is no longer working

    Don't think this is obtainable anymore… I had previously bought an annual Google One sub using a Play Voucher (used credit card points to buy the voucher so was "free")… In the last year I've subscribed to YouTube Premium using a Turkey Payment Profile (monthly sub, that is working fine)… But I can't subscribe to Google one, tried different VPN's and even without a VPN, it shows the TRY currency, but won't let me pay, says that I must check my country in the Play Store settings.

    Only have a Turkey profile, but the credit card on file for YouTube is an Aussie card. Tried a different card, same error…

    Since I don't wanna lose YouTube premium, I'll have to create a separate google account and use that for the storage - I'm only using the storage for Google One for my NAS and photo backups - so don't actually need it on my main account - just annoying that I have to pay full price

    • it still works, i did this to a friend of mine a few weeks ago and went ahead like a charm.

      go back to my comment with my method and it will save you alot of time.

      and by the way, no VPN needed with mine.

      • Hi @StarGrapper

        I have tried all the methods mentioned in the post by you and others, used old and new accounts, and tried multiple CC and Google gift card- was not accepted when tried to redeem.

        Please advise if you are able to help.

        • google gift cards are most likely restricted to a specific country of purchase, so cannot do it anywhere, use your bank card instead.

          i am happy to help you, let me know and i'll guide you through it step by step.

          • @StarGrapper: Thanks, please guide.
            How can we chat, I can not send you a direct message here

  • Tried to subscribe but keep giving purchase error. Tried Urban and Windscibe VPN

  • I currently have this set up with a turkish profile, australian credit card.

    Once my subscription expires, will it auto renew or will it fail and i have to pay full price? :(

    I went through the steps and setup a FUPS account and an Oldubil account to see if it would work with a local Turkish card.

    Have the Payments Profile set as Turkey, see the TRY prices - but once I press subscribe it gives me the Purchased failed error.
    Tried with and without the VPN on.

    Hope this saves someone in the future from trying this process - happy to be corrected if it is possible and I am missing a step.

  • Hey can anyone advise if this method using Turkey VPN is still working?

      No more working. Thanks

  • Will deleting existing payment profile impact my YouTube service subscripted via Turkey VPN?

    • +1

      I want to know the same thing.

  • is it working? or any alternative

  • Can anyone check if the price is the same with what i get

    Google one annual 2tb plan on ipad is TL 649.99/yr

    On android is TL 499.99/yr

    Massive increase from TL 289.99 /yr few months ago! And why the difference in price between android and ios?

    • The extra 150TRY/yr when purchasing it on iPad is because Apple takes a 30% cut of in-app purchases.
      Google also takes a 30% cut of in-app purchases, but I guess they waive that on their own apps.
      You're better off making the purchase from a desktop browser, since that'll be the cheapest (same as Android).

      • Thank you!

        That make sense.
        My turkish google account can’t make purchase anymore due to oldubil crackdown.
        But i still have balance on my apple turkey account. That’s why i purchase it on ipad.

        By desktop browser i guess that means paying with turkish cc only?

      • i can't get my turkey google playstore to work anymore, are you still able to ?

        • No, but my itunes turkey still works

  • I'm on an existing 100GB Google One Turkey plan. Trying to upgrade to a 200GB but getting a:

    Your transaction can't be completed. Please visit the Help Centre for more information

    error

    So I guess the party's over for "existing" users trying to upgrade too?

      What do u need 200gb storage for?

  • I have just been attempting to re-subscribe without luck, after reading the recent comments I now understand why! Real shame there isn't a website listing different international prices, I have blindly tried a few other countries, but nothing comes close to Turkey pricing.

    • Based on ur tries, which country is the cheapest after turkiye?
      My plan expired today and I got email saying plan has been cancelled, with no further explanation.
      Payment profile on the burner account does not seem to be there anymore.
      I am scared now my Youtube premium will also be affected since its using the same burner account.. will renew mid Nov..

      • From what I've read, YT Premium and Google One are charged a different way. My YT Family is still going strong but I can't get the Google One storage to renew no matter what I do.

        Basically only two options at the moment for me - move to another country (like Pakistan or Philippines) and pass the cost on to my Family or live without Google One. The latter is such a pain because I thought Id use it to back up all of my photos from the past 10 years

  • Damn, was waiting for my Google One to expire to try this out - but looks like it's not working anymore?

    If anyone finds any way (even if it's not as cheap as Turkey), I'm all ears!
