I’ve posted earlier but my comment seems to get missed so I’m posting as a separate tutorial.
A few things before you go on with this tutorial.
Would this work with a Wise digital card? or would this work with Revolut? Most likely yes, but I have my account set up already so I won't be trying those methods. If you would like to try those then comment below if it works for you.
Would this work with an AUD credit/debit card? YMMV but you would most likely run into issues at the reactivating stage of this tutorial. And to be honest I don't know why you would want to when Wise has great rates and basically no fees.
Will this work switching from another country Netflix? Probably, but you'd have to change your Wise address details to match the city you are currently subscribed to, then use a VPN and add it to your account and then continue on with step 2. Again, I'm already set up so I haven't tried so I'm not sure on this.
Create a Wise (formerly Transferwise) account. Input real details here including postal address. Verify account and get a card sent out. Deposit some money and activate card.
You can either open a new AU Netflix account or use an existing AU account at this point. Either subscribe to any plan with your Wise card or add your Wise card to an existing account. Add your phone number and verify if needed. Now you can immediately cancel the subscription. Netflix will email you and confirm you have cancelled and have the remaining month to use. If you want, you can contact them via chat and tell them to refund you the fee pro rata because you don’t want to use it for the month.
Once it’s completely cancelled you will receive an email with a button to reactivate your account. (Do not press this yet.)
Open your VPN of choice (Do not connect to it yet.) and check which city it has for Turkey and change your Wise address details to an address that match this city, Istanbul for example. (This is the main reason why your AU credit/debit cards are failing.)
Connect to your VPN and click on the link given in the email on step 3. (Make sure your browser is in incognito mode.)
Now just follow through and pay for account.
After you’ve got it all set up, change your details in Wise back to your real address.
