Resharing after 6 months for those unaware of the workaround to get YouTube Premium at a fraction of the normal price (with credit to HiDave for the original find). It's also around $0.27 cheaper per month now. Personally been using this for over 2 years and works flawlessly with 28 Degrees MasterCard (no fees). Stay safe, and enjoy :)

Very straightforward process:

  1. Use a VPN to connect to an Argentinian server (required only for registration).
  2. Open an incognito browser window.
  3. Sign up via the main link in this post (or here).
  4. If an Argentinian address is requested, use this link and Google the postcode.
  5. Pay with a card that has no foreign exchange fees.
  6. Enjoy the full benefits of YouTube Premium.

          I created a separate google account, whose address is somewhere in Turkey. It took me a lot of tries and also had to try with like 4 different vpns. In the end i think it worked with NordVPN, but had to use incognito browsers, restart my router, use a secondary computer, etc so that the price would stick after logging into the account

          • roshanrbb on 12/06/2022 - 13:32

            @pichxlonco: Yeah I might give that a try once my current monthly subscription ends . Thanks !

        • Ozbaragain on 12/06/2022 - 16:54

          I doubt your google payment profile is set to another country. It should be set to Turkey. Just search for google payment profile, login with your id and delete if you have anything other than Turkey.

          The catch here is, some apps won’t download if you use the same id here in Australia. For example abciview. Because google think that you are in Turkey. Easy workaround is to login to anther aussie google account and download the apps.

          I used ‘VPN unlimited’ and it worked a treat.

        did you upgrade your main account? If not then how do you share the 2tb storage with your main account?

        • pichxlonco on 12/06/2022 - 18:35

          Im only using the secondary account with the 2tb for photos, but all i did was share albums with my main account and can add photos from there, if needed. Same thing would apply to Google drive i suppose, where you could share a folder with your main account.

      MalwareBytes is another one.

      Yesterday I added a 2yr subscription on 2 PC's for $26.06 (via Brazil). The year previously I spent $45 on 1 PC for 12 months and that was using a discount code too. So this new deal is 3.5X better value 👍

      I paid with Paypal and you'll need to enter a fake address in Paypal using this site otherwise it defaults back to full price:

    I’ve been a happy Argentian since the last deal and it’s the best subscription I’ve paid for ever! About $1.60 a month depending on exchange rate and credit card fees.

    No ads at all when I click on a video and it just starts. Also Picture in Picture on iOS (soon to be available for everyone?)

    • mskeggs on 12/06/2022 - 09:51

      Same. I hardly ever watch YouTube, but even a handful of clicks a month while I didn’t have to watch ads is a great quality of life improvement.
      And for YT watching kids it is very good.

    Why 28 Degrees? 21 Degrees is a much more comfortable temperature in my opinion. Assuming it's Celsius.

    A cafe calling themselves 85 degrees I get but a credit card, I do not get.

    • senorclean on 12/06/2022 - 09:24
      +5

      Could be a Latitude thing rather than temperature?
      28 degrees south cuts through the Gold Coast and north through Baja California - appealing destinarions to use a card that is at least partly aimed at travellers.

      I think it was originally an Aussie home loans product before becoming a latitude financial one, so maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree.

      • deadpoet on 12/06/2022 - 14:29

        Yep it is indeed a latitude thing (28 Degrees card is from Latitude Financial Services). At the time the main drawback of the 28 Degrees card was no currency exchange fees for international transactions.

          Yeah, 28 still goes good, no currency or purchase conversion fees, they had no withdrawal fees back in the day too. Still good if go to Citibank in Bangkok, most still have atm owner's fees.
          Price protection is fantastic too.

          • deadpoet on 16/06/2022 - 12:44

            @G-rig: Agreed, the PP is fantastic, though sadly they stopped offering it around 2019 to new users. I'm lucky that I signed up for it before then, I still use it religiously.

          Just cancel the existing subscription. Then connect to Argentina network via VPN and re-subscribe. Your new subscription will start once old one is finished

      I just switched from India to Argentina.
      1. cancel subscription (premium)
      2. Access youtube website with Argentina VPN
      3. Subscribe premium with Argentina address
      4. Pay

      Payment amount will be reduced by your remaining subscription period. I had 2 weeks remains of Indian account and paid 149 ARS - 5x ARS (converted automatically) = 9x ARS.
      Good luck!

        For those converting from India to Arg.

        Goldcoastkim3984 steps worked like a charm.

        Very easy and worked straight away. If you are worried about time remaining for the current period, there is a credit based on what you had remaining before the next date of your renewal. Also a debit based in Arg based to bring the account up to the date you converted over.

          If I remember correctly they used to give 1gb. They also used to give additional data if you refer someone and install it in a PC with the same account. Refer your second/third…email and all those data is yours. But I haven't used it in a year since I bought a Nord subscription. So not sure if these are still valid.

    Did this last night worked well for new accounts and adding family members on newly created accounts (when still on vpn).

    What didn’t work was adding an additional family member (existing account) when on vpn. That family member has android and was logged in at the time on their mobile. Not sure if that impacted it at all.

    • nickeveli on 12/06/2022 - 14:39

    Hopefully this helps someone navigate the quirkiness that is family sharing.

    1. Create a new Google account with a spare email address (use your ISP provided email address or a modified Gmail address), and set that accounts region to Argentina

    2. Invite your main account (plus any others) to join the family of this Argentinian account

    3. Use a VPN (TunnelBear) to connect to Argentina and start a YouTube Premium subscription for your ‘family’

    4. Enjoy

    The pro’s of doing it this way is that your main account isn’t touched, so you don’t lose access to your previous purchasing history (you’ll have to delete your payments profile to change it from Aus to Argentina) or have issues with Google Pay, and your main (Aussie) account isn’t linked to Argentina. My thinking is that this should be less likely to get flagged, but I have no proof.

    To add a new member, VPN back to Argentina, cancel sub, invite a new member, accept, then re-sub via VPN. Note, I did all this in a virtual machine I had laying around, but see no reason incognito mode wouldn’t work. Good luck.

    • scaryspace on 12/06/2022 - 11:21

      • doot on 12/06/2022 - 11:49

        It's been a while since I did it, but I created the account whilst the VPN was active to Argentina. It might offer you something similar during account creation, but if not, then definitely when you add payment details it will ask you to confirm.

    • Pinchy on 12/06/2022 - 12:00

      So I need to use a vpn to connect an Australian account to my Argentinian account? No need to change the address? Then it works?

      Cause I have tried in the last and was unsuccessful. Had to keep using my Argentina account.

      Also a friend made an Argentina account to use it while travelling then a few months later YouTube blocked them from using it..

      • doot on 12/06/2022 - 12:28
        +2

        Whilst your VPN is connected, log into your Argentinian account and invite people via their email address. They'll then show up as pending on your family screen. You can this disconnect the VPN and accept the invite on your Aussie accounts with no problems. If you have a subscription active, then it'll throw up an error, which is why you have to cancel the sub when making changes to your family (except removing people, I think that should be fine.)

        Yeah I wouldn't try travelling too much with this method. Just keep it for yourself to use in Aus and you should be right (me and my family have been for ~5 months.)

    • Pricebeat on 12/06/2022 - 12:03

            @Pricebeat: Similar thing happened to me. Additional new accounts joined the family, but still was just regular YouTube on those accounts. What got it working was to add an Argentinian payment profile on all the additional accounts

            • Pricebeat on 12/06/2022 - 16:19

              @IdBuyThat4aDollar: It defeats the purpose of making a new account and only changing payment profile on the new account, that’s why I didn’t keep it.

        Correct. After adding the new member, you can re-sub immediately and go back to having perks for all family members.

      How do you invite people before paying for premium/ starting youtube premium subscription?

    • unknown-entity on 14/06/2022 - 04:38

      Sorry for noobish question - does this method require any modification of the payment profile on your Australian main/personal account that is added to the Argentina account's family?

      You say "The pro’s of doing it this way is that your main account isn’t touched" - but saying "(you’ll have to delete your payments profile to change it from Aus to Argentina)" contradicts that it isn't touched? Or perhaps I'm misinterpreting? Appreciate any guidance :)

    • beaker on 19/06/2022 - 15:12

      does this work the other way too, by adding the 'new' Argentina account into an existing family?

      • beaker on 19/06/2022 - 15:43

        no it doesn't - only the family manager can add youtube premium, so to use this method I will have to re-create the family group.
