Pakistan is now the cheapest Netflix country.

Mobile - PKR250 ($AUD 1.31)
This one is useful for individual that only access via tablet.

Basic - PKR450 ($AUD 2.35)

Netflix Standard HD Plan – Rs 800/ month. = 4.15
Netflix Premium Plan – Rs 1100/ month. = 5.7

  1. Use UrbanVPN and signup using a Pakistani tunnel. UrbanVPN is free if you download from the Google Play store. N.B. The iOS version doesn’t have Pakistan as one of the options.
  2. Pay with new digital bank account. Turn off VPN and enjoy.
  3. Turn off VPN and enjoy.

Mod: Not available to Australians as they don't accept any non-Pakistani credit/bank cards.

              @Nedkellyinthebush: Yes, you have different amounts in each currency, like different pots of money.

              But Wise recently stopped basically adding money to your ARS amount. you cannot convert AUD/EUR/USD to ARS anymore and also not add directly to the ARS pot from your account.

              And today I also got the dreaded email. So far none of my cards seem to work anymore. Found also some UK discussion board about it.

              • Nedkellyinthebush on 07/02/2023 - 10:29

                @linkser: I was reading the hotukdeals forum and there’s people there that says Visa cards no longer work, but Mastercard still do work. My payment is due in 2 days so I’ll try both

                Revolut can generate single use Mastercards so I’ll try that (seems to work in the uk)

                Source: https://www.hotukdeals.com/discussions/tidal-argentina-subsc…

                If Mastercard works, then it could be due to this visa and PayPal loophole that has been closed https://www.hotukdeals.com/visit/comment/49477618/17365293 it allowed people to make money just by converting the peso (lol) so nothing to do with Tidal itself. I’ll find out in two days and will post the outcome here

                • Nedkellyinthebush on 07/02/2023 - 16:46

                  @Nedkellyinthebush: EDIT: Actually looks like Revolut is not working for uk people. But the starling card (Mastercard) does. Too bad it’s for uk only and require a uk number to sign up

        $1.73 deducted from 28D two days ago for top-tier family plan. My favourite subscription service. I'll cry if it dies.

        • linkser on 06/02/2023 - 23:02

          My Wise card had been working since a year or so but today I also got the email that they couldnt process the payment. And adding any of my cards gave only an error message.

          They must have started cracking down on this veeeery recently.

          Someone suggested it has to do with VISA, so Mastercards might work? but doubt it. 28degrees is a Mastercard I assume?

          • Thaal Sinestro on 07/02/2023 - 02:41

            @linkser: Yes, 28 Degrees is a MasterCard.

            I love these workarounds and hacks to get cheaper prices, but over the years more and more companies have changed their billing mechanismso Westerners cannot purchase at 3rd world prices using VPNs. Several years ago you could rip lossless quality music from Deezer with a free account :(

          • Nedkellyinthebush on 07/02/2023 - 16:48

            @linkser: It looks like the starling card (Mastercard) is working for people in the uk https://www.hotukdeals.com/discussions/tidal-argentina-subsc…

            Might be worth trying out our aussie Mastercard cards, I’ll give Macquarie a go as my payment is due in the next couple days

            • linkser on 07/02/2023 - 16:55

              @Nedkellyinthebush: Interesting. Somewhere else here a reddit post was linked, which also mentioned a Mastercard starting with 53 worked out…

              Do have one EUR Mastercard, will also give it a shot later.

              • linkser on 07/02/2023 - 21:23

                @linkser: I tried now newly setup Revolut and it accepted the one time use creditcard. Authorization was successful but let's see if the payment will go through in 1-2 days time.

                Just wondering if now I have to add every month new payment method and update…

      This is how I did it many years ago moving from an Australian account:
      1. cancel plan and let it expire
      2. connect to Netflix using VPN.
      3. login and resubscribe under PK plans

      • MuddyClear on 06/02/2023 - 15:25

        You need to enter PK phone number for verification. Most people will fail at this step.

    Just FYI, I have been using Netflix PK for the past few months or so. When I signed up, I needed a PK mobile phone number for verification. Luckily, I knew someone who lives there. I "borrowed" his number to sign up. I have been using Netflix PK without issues since then. I have been paying using my 28 degrees card.

    • Dagg on 06/02/2023 - 13:57

      I just subscribed Pak Netflix and it did not ask for the phone number at all. I am stuck at the payment page right now.

    Appreciate the post, but instructions not good enough imo

    Reason I haven’t posted Pakistan and only Turkey is because all Australian bank cards decline (despite it not asking for local phone number) and there’s no Pakistan gift cards as backup. I did mention in my post that Pakistan is cheapest but hard to sign up to, given most of OzB users are unable to sign up to Pakistan due to our bank accounts located in Australia

    • gadgetguy on 06/02/2023 - 14:27

      I thought that the reason you need to cancel and expire your current account and sign up again in the new country via VPN using your existing account is so you can continue to use the associated payment method and not have to enter a new one.

      • I Smell Pennies on 06/02/2023 - 14:30

        Yup, that's correct. However, Netflix PK ain't accepting the associated payment method, and any new ones entered are declined as well

            @PopCounty: No, I meant something else. Muneeb said he was "finally" proud, and I assume he said it on a lighter note, and given the fact that its usually negative news that come out of Pakistan. What I understood from slackerman's comment (and I may be wrong) is that he was commenting to the irony in the first part of the comment, i.e. someone having left their country for greener pastures and then feeling proud of it. What I said was to take Muneeb's comment in a broader context, i.e. irrespective of what a country is going through, it is still beautiful. I hope I have clarified my point. Have a nice day :)
