YouTube Premium - Overseas Payment Method Crackdown Discussion Megathread

Guys, I have been on Argentina and they found out.

I got this email. I can’t go to India as there are no VPN services and credit card doesn’t work. Which country do I go to next to get similar value for money like Argentina?

“ Your YouTube Premium membership was canceled because we believe the signup country of Argentina was inaccurate.”


Mod:
As this appears to be a hot topic as of Q4 2024 ( large numbers of users being emailed by YouTube that their Australian payment method is not being accepted. The emails being sent mention that "YouTube Premium memberships based in Country X require a form of payment issued in Country X.",

Hence all discussions of similar nature will be moved to this thread.

        • Same. I still have few rupees in my Indian apple account.

          Saw few posts on reddit last night about getting an individual YT account for some $30/year. Not sure how legit they are though. Will need to continue my research. I cant see myself watching YT with so many ads!

            @BuddhaBoy: My apple account is still active. I manually renewed the subscription and it's working again. Let's see how long it lasts

            • @Sammyboy: Awesome, I'll try this now and report back. Thanks
