Update - While individual (single) plans should work for most credit/debit cards, family plan sign-ups will fail for 99% of you. If this the case, the only other option may be Youtube Premium Family via Turkey

I just made it work guys - USE EXPRESSVPN and connect to India VIA SINGAPORE

Google is increasing the prices for Youtube Premium in several countries worldwide, including USA, UK, Canada, Argentina, Turkey, Japan etc. This means Argentina is no longer the cheapest and most OzBargainers will be migrating from Argentina to… India - Happy Diwali

For price references, Youtube Premium via Australia is $14.99/mth for individual plans & $22.99/mth for family plans

Previous long running post
Annual subscription via YouTube India long running post

Plan Monthly Cost Yearly Cost 3 Month Plan
Individual INR ₹129 / AU$2.49 INR ₹1290 / AU$24.84 INR ₹399 / AU$7.68
Family INR ₹189 / AU$3.64
Student INR ₹79 / AU$1.52

Instructions (No Current Subscription)

Note: If you're signing up for a family plan, best to add your Australia family members / accounts into a family group before signing up. To add family members: https://families.google.com/families

  1. Connect a VPN to the server in India

  2. Go to https://www.youtube.com/premium and if it shows currency in Indian Rupees, continue choosing your membership.

  3. Enter your Indian address (get a fake one here and proceed to pay by credit card (it will redirect you to a secure payment vendor gateway (because our bank is in Australia), which will add several cents to your Youtube Premium cost). If the payment declines, just continue to press "buy" and it will eventually redirect you to the secure payment vendor gateway.

Instructions (Transferring from a different country)

Note: If you're signing up for a family plan, best to add your Australia family members / accounts into a family group before signing up. To add family members: https://families.google.com/families

  1. Go to https://m.youtube.com/paid_memberships and click on your current subscription. Click “manage” then continue to cancel

  2. Once cancelled, the current subscription will continue until the end of the billing period. But you now have an option to resubscribe back to Youtube Premium

  3. Connect a VPN to the server in India

  4. Go to https://www.youtube.com/premium and if it shows currency in Indian Rupees, continue choosing your membership.

  5. Enter your Indian address (get a fake one here and proceed to pay by credit card (it will redirect you to a secure payment vendor gateway (because our bank is in Australia), which will add several cents to your Youtube Premium cost). If the payment declines, just continue to press "buy" and it will eventually redirect you to the secure payment vendor gateway.

Notes

  • Most VPN services have removed Indian servers due to new laws in India

  • Use ExpressVPN and connect to India via Singapore. Sign up and use the 30 Day Money Back Guarantee to get a refund

  • I can sign up for individual (all cards work, payment due sometime next month) but family sub gives me errors on all cards. Trying to find an way to fix this

  • If payment fails, try creating an Indian payment profile. You can create a new payment profile by following these steps by alcheron: go to https://pay.google.com/gp/w/u/0/home/settings and clicking the pen icon next to "Country/Region" and a link to create a new profile should pop up. You can then add details for the India profile.

        Not sure about the Express VPN but I used PIA this morning that goes via Singapore as well, ended up giving me the prices in IDR(Indonesian Rupiah) instead of INR(Indian Rupees)

          The gig is up! Google must know about this trick, they are now charging in british pounds if you try and connect via the PIA Indian server lol! No good, don't waste your money or time if that's why you bought it.

          • Borg on 24/11/2022 - 01:10

            @supersabroso: Check the ip address via whois to ensure it is in fact India. I have connected to countries only to find the IP is from a different location. In short don’t trust VPNs to be 100% accurate.

        I don't see a good reason why he would be banned. He probably just deactivated his account.

        Also, I think he's a bit emotionally sensitive, so we should calm down and take it easy a bit.

        INR ₹129 is the cost for the last couple of months right?

        Maybe it takes them a few days to increase the prices for different regions.

        I don't think I'll bother changing if the difference is less than AUD$1.

          As much as I'd like to save the $1.50 per month, I don't think I want to risk changing it to India so my residency in Argentina will remain for now. Plus I like soccer more than cricket.
