How iCloud+ works
iCloud+ is Apple’s premium cloud subscription service. It gives you more storage for your photos, files and backups, as well as additional features including iCloud Private Relay, Hide My Email and HomeKit Secure Video support.*

While other subscriptions can't be shared with an overseas account, iCloud+ can be shared with an overseas account via Family sharing

How to get access:

Follow the onscreen steps. In the mobile number section use your Australian mobile number (Very important to use a valid number or risk losing your ID). Choose country as Turkey. Then follow through the rest to create your ID. Login into Apple ID on a browser. Go to this link to enter a Turkish address to your Turkish Apple ID, select payment method as none and save.

  • Go to Settings on your iPhone/iPad > Your Name > Media and Purchases > Log out from your current ID and login with your Turkish Apple ID

  • Buy TL iTunes gift cards (Make sure you only buy Turkish ones, only comes in 25 TRY and 50 TRY denominations) from TurGame > Choose currency as TL/TRY and pay with international transaction fee free card.

  • Redeem iTunes gift cards by going to App Store > Account (located at right top corner) > Redeem gift cards or code.

  • Sign up to iCloud+ via settings or by clicking on this link from an Apple device.

  • While logged in using Turkey ID start Family Sharing group and invite your AU account. Make sure you add iCloud+ to sharing with family.

  • Logout from Turkey Apple ID and login back with AU Apple ID.

  • Accept Family sharing request and enjoy iCloud+

(Australian iCloud+ monthly subscription costs: 50 GB: A$1.49, 200 GB: A$4.49, 2 TB: A$14.99)

    Understand this:
    - Apple ID is what ties all of this.
    - Apple ID has two purpose: iCloud+ and Media Services (App store, music, movies etc)
    - You can sign in with two different Apple IDs for each one of the services. Yes can sign with different countries too.
    - Check https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT207937

    However, do remember that Apple ID is also ties in with Continuity. What makes Apple devices works seamlessly with each other. If you are looking for cheaper storage prices, know that it may muck up your Continuity experience. Think of: Wallet, Handover, HomeKit, Hotspot, and many more. See https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT204681

    I personally wouldn’t recommend switching your Apple ID for the iCloud to a Turkey’s one as you may experience abnormalities in your iCloud related stuff. Go to Settings > Apple ID > iCloud and see how many services may behave strangely. Let’s not forget password & security and other privacy matters.

    To me: not worth it.
    It may cause more trouble and you will spend time (which is money) to figure it out and to fix it.
    But have fun trying and don’t be mad if it broke something else.

    • machina on 11/07/2022 - 23:39

      Oooo one more thing: Apple One ties both iCloud and Media Services together. It’ll be hell to figure out what went south in the event of something broke.

      If you read carefully the solution provided by @Pricebeat, you are not making any changes to your own Apple ID or that of any family members.

      All you are doing is creating a new Apple ID. Lets pretend for a generous family member who lives in Turkey, and signs up to iCloud+. They then invites you to join their family sharing pool.

      Don't waste your breath, look at the reply below. Here in OZB is all $$$, don't care how the backend tides up, enjoy the cheap account while it last and if their data got lost because of using a blocked second account, they don't care or will go scream their lungs out in apple forum.

    I seriously don't know what you boys and girls are thinking….

    I understand the part that you create a Turkey (or India) account, then family share with the AU ID…..

    Can you be sure your Turkey/India ID will not be blocked by mocking around like this? It may not be immediate but could happen down the road. Then you data will be gone!

    If you want to save money, back up your phone to itunes, don't go OZB with your data…..

    • Larsson on 24/01/2023 - 22:26

  • j1nk0r on 12/07/2022 - 11:29

    I found a few caveats after trying this which in hindsight are probably very obvious.

    First is that you cannot invite your TR iCloud account to your existing AU family - it will throw a region error. It does work if you invite your AU iCloud account to the new TR family per the instructions in the OP.

    If your AU iCloud is already in a family group you will need to leave that group first before you can join the TR family, and keep in mind you can only swap families once a year.

    So while I got it all working using a fake address and iTunes credit from turgame.com, in the end I couldn't really use it. I can't delete the TR account with credit left on it either, but whatever.

    Thanks though, OP. It's a good strategy for the right people.

    • darthsparrow on 12/07/2022 - 14:23

      That wasn't what I experienced.

      Initially, I did the mistake of leaving my family (I was the organiser) and joined the TR account using my US iCloud account.

      When I realised that, I setup everything again. This time, I used my US iCloud account, setup a new family and invited TR plus my existing family members in. We are able to do Purchase and Subscriptions sharing even though there are 2x US accounts and 1x TR accounts in this new family. The only thing that I can't share was Apple Music that I purchased with the TR account.

        So just confirming that setting up a NEW Oz Family Apple ID account will work? I haven't setup the iCloud account only the AppleID accounts in both Oz and TR. The TR now has icloud+.

            @Jit0809: I can’t explain why it threw the error for me when I tried, but then it didn’t later in the day. So I guess maybe just give it some time? I did have iCloud+ activated on the TR account first in both cases. I invited it to my existing AU family group on both occasions - 2nd time it worked.

            • icemanmelb on 13/07/2022 - 16:36

              @j1nk0r: Ok finally success. I followed the steps to have iCloud+ running. Next have a New Family Share in Oz and like all posters mentioned, they were successful inviting other members. I created a new iCloud account in OZ and it worked! Thanks to everyone for their input.

                    @icemanmelb: ok so here is my input. while it failed on iPhone, i was able to login with TR account on my Mac, then accept the invite on the Mac. After joining the family group

                    1. Purchased the iCloud+ on my TR account with giftcard credit from g2a.
                    2. Stopped sharing iCloud+ from OZ account with family members.
                    3. Downgrade to 5GB plan on OZ account.
                    4. Enable sharing iCloud+ from TR account with family members.
                    5. Accept iCloud+ shared storage from TR account.

                    NOTE: there was no prorata credit for cancelling the service from OZ account. all members moved across seamlessly without any action on their side.

                      @Jit0809: UPDATE: the credit came back overnight. Also Turgame is cheaper than g2a

          @icemanmelb: sorry didn’t see your reply, but I did encounter the region error that you mentioned yesterday when I tried adding another member to my Family Sharing and finally figured it out.

          When inviting another member, use the iMessage option and have that member click on the link in their Messages app. DO NOT use the Invite in Person option as that was my mistake that resulted in Region Error.

            @darthsparrow: Do you need to create a new oz family Sharing with the iMessage method?

    Can anyone kindly advise, if the icloud+ storage can be use for family in which their icloud space already full (15gb) and this include icloud email inbox which belong to family member?

    i assume icloud photos will work as per conversation above, but would love to know about icloud drive and icloud email for family member. Will that work?

    Thank you

    Does this work?

    Can I add the new turkey Apple ID to existing family sharing will that work?

  • foolsgold on 14/07/2022 - 19:54

    how did people who got the gift card, verify their Turkish accounts?
    I've bought a gift card fine, but before it will process anything it asks for me to verify my account using a credit card or mobile number
