My Turkey subscription broke when my CC expired previously so I have been holding off on buying till now.

I managed to get it to work with Nord via India.

The process is:

  • Wait for your plan to cancel (I don't know if it will work on existing plans)
  • Stay OFF the VPN
  • Sign in to netflix.com
  • Connect to the VPN
  • Go to the renewal page
  • Subscribe to India prices.
Pricing
  • Mobile Plan ₹149 (~A$ 2.75)
  • Basic Plan ₹199 (~A$ 3.68)
  • Standard Plan ₹499 (~A$ 9.22)
  • Premium Plan ₹649 (~A$ 11.50)

I've had my plan back on for about two weeks now and it seems to be working.

I'm sure I'll need to update this post with other info as you all comment and tell me everything I didn't know or factor into this.

            @dealsforlife: It's actually really easy! You only need to set it up once too and all the settings will sync onto the Stremio account. This means you can set it up once and just use it on multiple devices

                @tsuitenaishoujo: stremio is free but yes, real debrid needs separate accounts

                @tsuitenaishoujo: From what I've read it won't work if multiple households (different IP addresses) are using it at the same time. The restriction comes from the Real Debrid account sharing policy and apparently it's easy to get caught/banned

                No issues with multiple devices at the same time at the one household (same IP address) though

                  @herroherro: Thanks for the info. Thinking of setting up for my household and letting my parents use the same account, but looks like no go then.

                  What would be the initial set up cost for this, other than the $1 per week RD subscription fee for 6 months?

                Best to use at one location (ip address), using multiple ip's I think they'll give you a warning, then the next time cancel your account.

      This also affects people living in India. Eventually they catch on and increase the price to cover costs/discourage people from overseas using VPNs. This screws over all the people who actually live in India. These are the people who can least afford the price increase.

          These countries just don't have the purchasing power that we do here in Australia. If they didn't adjust the price for some of these countries then Netflix (or any sort of digital media really) would be out of reach for the average person.

      But when you factor in the price of Plex Pass, HDD, Electricity, GPU etc, may as well have paid full price for netflix…

      • Unotifoso on 28/05/2024 - 16:49

        Except Netflix is only a slice of the content available. And nobody said you need plex pass, a gpu, or expensive HDD. You can do it cheap and it can still be good.

      • tm001 on 28/05/2024 - 23:25

        You get what you pay for. You have what you want. You have it whenever you want it. No issues with stuff being pulled out. No issues with old movies, or just movies out of the mainstream. If you purchased PlexPass years back for $79, use it for 10 years it makes it $7.9 per year. I have my own backup needs for which I run Synology anyway, and Synology can do transcoding (just I think 4 streams, but never get to that limit). Not for everyone, for sure.

    Funny how we go a full 360 on these things. With the introduction of streaming services, say like 10 yrs ago, it essentially stopped 70-80% of people pirating stuff, myself included.

    But now with more platforms than ever and each charging a minimal at $20pm, I find myself pirating more than ever.

      The beauty kicks in with apps like the 'Arr's. That is a touch more involved but if you can get your head around usenet, then it becomes set and forget.

      You don't even need an expensive NAS, I just run Plex via Xpenology on an old i5 Optiplex with 3 x 12TB HDD's. I watch and delete as I never have time to go back and there is so much new stuff released daily.

    So I need to manually update payment details and do a payment manually
    Also, to "play safe" I have an active india VPN connection to one of the TV client (hope this will be treated as Primary location)

    I would be very surprised if your subscription lasts long.
    I gave up after having it cancelled after trying multiple different countries.

    The answer is stremio + real debrid. Takes all of 5min to setup and then you’ll be streaming everything under the sun for less than $5 a month. The streaming companies have decided they would rather get $0 from us instead of some money at least.

    • Yafuturefavorite on 28/05/2024 - 13:12

        Stremio aggregates all content into a nice simple interface with apps on all major devices an TVs now, other than Apple TV. With real debrid which is the only paid content you will have easy access to that content in stremio with high quality instant streams. https://www.reddit.com/r/StremioAddons/comments/15agu2p/stre…

          Sounds so good. I was just reading about it on reddit.

          So, let me get this straight ..

          I can’t stream from my Apple TV? How will I watch it on my tv?

          secondly, can I get it on my phone?

          Thirdly, with ONE subscription, can all 4 of us in my household use it?

            @Yafuturefavorite: No Apple locks down the Apple TV too much to allow stremio on the App Store. If you have a fire stick, google tv etc, or any modern Sony, LG or Samsung TV the stremio app is available on there. Pretty much available on every streaming device other than Apple now.

            You can use the web interface + VLC on iOS which works pretty well. Or if on android there is a stremio app.

            The subscription is purely to real debrid. Where content is effectively cached.

            You can use the real debrid account on as many devices as you like on your home network. You can only use 1 real debrid account per externally visible IP though or they are known to disable your account. It’s so cheap that people outside your home should be using their own account anyway. Or if you’re travelling and using your real debrid account then no one back at home should be using it.

                @avitherock: Pretty much. Well it will work but you risk them closing your account. If you know you’re going to regularly be in such a situation you might want to buy a second account. Would still be less than $10 a month for everything you could ever want.

  • Cludo on 28/05/2024 - 12:09

    I've given up with signing up from other countries. I'm content with paying for the Aussie sub with 2 Extra members (+$7.99 each) then we split the total cost by 3.
    Ends up being around $13.5 each. Not amazing pricing, but beats worrying about setting up new payment methods when a crackdown happens like with Turkey/Nigeria.

    • DingoBlue on 28/05/2024 - 12:14

      How does that work with different IPs though?

      • Cludo on 28/05/2024 - 14:14

        It's a Netflix feature meant to stop account sharing.
        Example, you pay for Netflix and were account sharing with a friend (they use their own viewing profile), you can pay the Extra member fee and your friend can move their viewing profile to a whole new Netflix account.

        From there you are both just treated as you have your own accounts. IP's are not an issue.

    I believe it's the credit card associated with the accounts that is the issue.

    • halfnhalf71 on 28/05/2024 - 12:35

      I'm the same. I was nuked by Netflix with a Turkey account. Removed my Aussie CC and now get digital Turkish Netflix gift cards from G2A or Turgame every 2 months. Has been going about a year with no issues (touch wood) and my parents also use my account in another city. To be safe (not sure if it is necessary), I use a VPN to Turkey and login to my Netflix every now and then

    I had my brother sign up for Netflix from Pakistan using my Australian credit card. This was at least a year ago. Then at the start of this year, Netflix refused to accept my credit card and I figured I'd try with my brother's Pakistani credit card, for which I had my brother login to my account from Pakistan and put his Pakistani card details. Yesterday, Netflix randomly decided to cancel my subscription and their rep on the phone told me that because I'm in Australia, I cannot use Netflix here and I need to sign up and live in Pakistan to use Netflix. I think they're now even cracking down on people situations who are actually using an overseas debit/credit card. Similar thing happened to a friend of mine in the US who signed up in Pakistan using a Pakistani credit card.

    Sorry if it's an incorrect use of a neg, but I think this might not work after a few days/weeks and people will end up having their subscription cancelled and potentially Netflix not honouring the full month that you had paid for.

        They didn't even give me this option. My Netflix just randomly got signed out and it asked me to resume my subscription with AUD prices.

          Looks like someone at Netflix manually did something in the account(my guess). There are people selling slots for Netflix maybe that might be cheaper .

          Exactly what's happened with mine today via Nigeria. No notification, just signed out. I've just re-signed on the basic Aussie plan. I'm not paying $25 to watch the garbage on there.

    I have done the exact same thing when they stopped Turkey, however I had to use 2 different cards including Wise for 1 month & CommBank for second. After Reserve Bank of India have stopped all these international cards from getting used I could not go ahead for the 3rd month. I discussed it with my dad & using PAYTM from his account for the 720p resolution for $3.82.
