    wut yank baggin site ?

  • Great find. Thanks!

  • Thanks!

  • +4

    Great, it’s very generous giving a 12 months trial. I canceled instantly and have still access until 21/7/24.

  • Great find! Thanks a lot 🙏

  • Does it matter whether you choose the bill monthly or bill yearly option?

    • +2

      It won't matter since it'll be cancelled anyways. (I picked monthly, BTW)

  • Err I am only being offered 7 days on the payment page

  • Thanks!

  • Thanks Scrooge

  • Cheers

  • Thank you

  • Any ideas if this can be connected to alexa?

    • +1

      Yes Tunein works with Alexa. It can be linked in the Alexa app.

      • Don't know if I'm missing something but I can't find the Alexa skill. There's the built in functionality, but no premium. I can see the skill in the US skill store but nothing in Australia.

  • Worked first time for me and what a great find, thank you Scrooge.

      6.Upon completing checkout, an error will appear stating 'Pairing failed. Please try again with a new pin or qr code. Despite this error, the purchase is complete and your TuneIn account should now be premium.

      You still have premium. Login account

      • This reply should be stickied. I tried 3 accounts with google pay, and 2 credit cards thinking something was wrong, then saw this reply and just realised all those accounts and payments were active. I just logged into settings and cancelled 3 of them not knowing all my attempts had worked, dumb I know.

        So make sure you login to your tune in, settings, subscriptions and cancel.

    • I've got a pair for you.

  • Thank you OP, worked with a Revolut disposable card.

    • Strange my revolut disposable card was declined. It said merchant not supported. I had to use my main card.

      • Yea none of my virtual cards worked. Got an email from one service saying:
        “$0.00 charge at TUNEIN INC declined on your Tunein card because we do not currently support transactions with this merchant on the Privacy platform due to the high volume of attempted abuse and excessive declines. We apologize for the inconvenience.”

  • Thanks OP

    Better than Türkiye

  • How to cancel subscription from the app? I can see free trial for 1 year, but when I try to log into my account via desktop I get the pairing issue.

    • Cancel is via the web interface

      • All good. Thanks got it sorted.

    • Even with that error, you are still a premium member. Try to login now and check under settings

  • Anything on it apart from a few American sports?

  • Thanks.

  • +1

    Sadly the channel that I always listen has stop working so switch to onlineradiobox.

  • Got it. Thanks op!

  • Thank you OP :)

  • Had to use an InPrivate window on Edge to get this to work but got there in the end. Thanks.

  • Worked, thanks Scrooge. 😀👍

  • Thanks

  • Thanks, set up with google pay using an old TCN baby gift card with $0 balance as the payment method.

  • Thanks

  • Thanks OP, worked easily as described!

    I'm just trying to work out what Premium offers over the free version?

    • Hopefully no ads…

    Thanks OP

    I paid for the tunein app years ago to get an ad free experience etc.. and then the bastards created premium so i get nagged to sign up all the time. This should stop it

    • Same happened to me.
      Bastards!

  • Didnt these guys have NFL at one point too? (signed up thanks OP!!)

  • +1

    I thought this was turn it in. I was getting happy that I can once again do copy and paste assignments from Encarta 96

  • Thanks Scrooge. Worked like a charm with Revolut. Signed up and cancelled with 12 months remaining.

    • Sally didn't work with the 1 time card, had to use the regular Revolut.

      • Yeah that never works for me after the first time, useless..

        Maybe banks are blocking the use of them.

      • +1

        yeah the one time use card has been blocked when it is for a recurring subscription.
        It can be used for charges that are once off.

        however for the regular card in revolut, you can set a monthly spend limit of $1.

        • I thought the point of it is it generates a 'new' one time use card with new numbers?

          Kind of pointless otherwise.

          • @G-rig: yeah it generates a new one time use with new numbers, but cannot be used for a recurring sub. It used to be able to, but they changed it.

            It's definitely not as useful now. It can be used for once off charges. Most of the time when I want to use it it's for recurring charges.

            • @bohn: Yeah I've tried for new different one time charges, but just says merchant doesn't support it. Didn't need it anyway I guess so wouldn't mind cancelling it to simply things.

              I've never had an issue cancelling any subscriptions or trials.

  • You can download an audiobook for offline listening. Nice.

  • Done. Thanks OP.

  • I signed up for the audiobooks, but can't find anything worth listening by authors I've heard of…

    I guess I'll stick with Libby.

  • +29

    Shady company. Bought TuneIn Radio Pro lifetime licence when it was first released.

    They discontinued it and rebranded the exact same product to kill those lifetime licences.

    • yes this was annoying.

    • What does that has to do with this freebie deal?

      • +6

        Is that a serious question?

        • So I am guessing you didn't get the freebie? I didn't understand why you negged this deal. The deal was 12 months free of premium. I understand the company done hugely wrong to you. But I can not see what it has to do with the deal.

      • +1

        has to do with company exposure i s'pose

  • Works great! It may say you need a new pairing code/QR after entering your card details… but just go to your account settings and the subcription will have started for a year. Make sure to cancel it on the spot. It will expire in a year.

    • wow, just like what OP said

      • Hotel? Trivago!

  • Thanks op!

  • Works exactly as posted. Thanks!

  • -6

    says Pairing failed. Please try again with a new pin or qr code.

    • +7

      you didn't read the OP or any comments to figure it out.

      nice one

    • That's correct, that's what the deal details say

      6.Upon completing checkout, an error will appear stating 'Pairing failed. Please try again with a new pin or qr code. Despite this error, the purchase is complete and your TuneIn account should now be premium.

  • I used to use Tunein Radio on android years ago, and you could pause radio and resume.
    Then they made it premium only, and I don't think there is another free player that can pause live radio. Anyone know of one.. (for when this deal expires) ?

    • +1

      You can do it on the Pro version (the one time payment version of the app). Not sure about the free one. You don't need premium subscription.

  • +2

    Pro tip: Access TuneIn with either a VPN or smartdns service set to the US for a wider selection of premium channels

  • +1

    Great. Been wanting to buy this, but the regular price is way expensive for what it provides.

  • Not working for me. After that qr code erorr it just displays the two options of subscription and does not go ahead.

    • +1

      It should've worked anywa, per op "Upon completing checkout, an error will appear stating 'Pairing failed. Please try again with a new pin or qr code. Despite this error, the purchase is complete and your TuneIn account should now be premium."

    • Jsut tried this on my laptop and it worked. Strange

  • +2

    Just got a call from my bank 5 mins after joining, seems TuneIn test your credit card and it tripped their security… :-)

    They also said "just wondering what this is as we have had quite a few of these this morning" lol OzBargain strikes again.

    • I had to get UP Bank (Bendigo) to unblock my card.

      • +1

        I'm with UP too.
        Glad they called me and didn't just block my card.

    • I used a prepaid coles mastercard that had $0.13 on it
      Also there are revolut cards that can be used. No point using a 'real' card for deals like this IMO.

  • @Scrooge McDeal Thanks for the detailed instructions, it worked perfectly. I got the "Pairing failed, please try again" message and ignoring it was the solution as stated.
    Then I went to TuneIn radio website/Settings/Subscriptions, and was able to cancel the subscription, a message pops up stating; "Payment Details: Your subscription will
    end on 7/22/2024. You can renew your subscription for $12.45!"
    This is a fantastic deal and I look forward to trialing it.

  • Love it, thank you!

    With the time difference, I get some great stuff on C89.5! Oh, the nostalgia <3

    Not sure I'll use it that much but what the heck,signed up

  • Worked with new account & US VPN

    • How did you do it? I think it is now set on 3 months after being Ozbargained.
