Hey everyone! I have been busy and currently overseas, didn't have much time for deals. Here is a FREEBIE!! deal that usually is $605.

Coursera Plus is an online training platform that offers more than 7,000 courses on various subjects, as well as preparation for certifications. Coursera is also the only place where you can do Google, Meta, AWS, Microsoft specialisations and also has a lot of University affiliations.

This subscription usually costs around AU$605 for the year - however when accessing the deal link as a new user via Mexico VPN, it is completely free as part of a promotion.

Note: You only require VPN for the sign-up / payment process - once completed, disconnect and access the subscription / courses as normal without VPN.

(Don't forget to cancel your subscription to avoid a charge in one years time).

Instructions:

1 - Connect to VPN via Mexico

2 - Access the following link (use incognito mode for better results): https://www.coursera.org/courseraplus/special/newcoursepromo

3 - Subscribe for one year. (Enter your payment details/information).

4 - Deactivate VPN and access paid courses as normal for one year.

Note: You can cancel immediately and keep the whole years access (Go to Manage Subscriptions, click the subscription you want to cancel, then click cancel subscription).

Coursera Plus is a subscription service that gives users unlimited access to over 7,000 courses, specializations, and professional certificates. It includes content from top universities and companies, such as Google, IBM, and Duke University.

What’s included in Coursera Plus
It gives you access to 7,000+ courses and specializations (which are a collection of courses that lead to a certificate) with one monthly or annual subscription.

Over 90% of the courses on the platform are available with the Plus subscription.

You have unlimited access to the training from 170+ leading companies and universities. And you can earn certificates for all of them (there might be a few that don’t offer certificates).

There are more than 15 Professional Certificate programs (including all the courses from Google) available too, but degrees and some other classes are excluded from the subscription plans.

Benefits of Coursera Plus:
Unlimited access: Users can take as many courses as they want without paying extra.
Flexible learning: Users can create a learning schedule that fits their lifestyle.
Earn certificates: Users can earn valid certificates for all their professional and specialization programs.
Career support: Coursera Plus can help users improve their skills and advance their careers

      Yes, then used paypal and worked.

      Here's to another year of not doing courses I'm telling myself I will.

    So awesome. Worked fine for me. Thanks OP!

  • ChatBard on 29/09/2024 - 18:28

    When does this expire? In the middle of uni, so don't want to get into it just yet.

    • toneypaloney on 29/09/2024 - 18:30

      I second this

    • PeeDee on 29/09/2024 - 19:01

      Just do it now in case. When you get the answer, do it again at the mentioned date.

      • ChatBard on 29/09/2024 - 19:02

        Can you do this more than once?

          You can make a new account then if needed. I did it on two different accounts, one new and one existing, using the same card just to test it out. Worked fine.

  • Orbilf on 29/09/2024 - 18:51

    Thanks OP!

  • PeeDee on 29/09/2024 - 19:00

    Thank you so much!

  • WhatsTheBigDeal on 29/09/2024 - 19:16

    No real Ozb will be having the same card in one year time. So my question is can they still charge a cancelled card?

    • johnmelb on 30/09/2024 - 09:01

      With revolut I've had charges come through on a blocked and cancelled card (more than 1y ago now).
      I contacted revolut support and they were indicating the subscription started before card was blocked so was still allowed to process.

      Haven't had this issue with wise. With wise I just got notification that an attempted charge came in but was blocked.

      Real question is how many courses you completed

  • sheepynz on 29/09/2024 - 19:45

    thanks, work with Wise card ;)) applied, cancel right after and have 1 year access .

    this is probably the best deal of 2024. gracious

  • YoursTruly on 29/09/2024 - 21:17

    Thanks OP

    This deal almost feels like cheating

  • Wombatstew on 29/09/2024 - 21:28

    Awsome. Was free at a prior employer and I did a few of their bigger courses when I was considering a new job such as Proj Management, BI, and the full IBM Data Analyst (in my own time though). Decent programs if you are interested in learning the topic. If you have considered trying something new it's a good place to start for free.

    Biggest let down is the peer review system. The quality of submissions is mostly horrible, including people just not understanding the material, not uploading the right attachment (if at all), not answering the actual question, etc. Unfortunately (or fortunate for most of them) the marking key is either so loose or so pointed that they technically get the some marks. Over and over again things were marked wrong / not full marks were it was blatently correct. I expect most of the people undertaking the courses are brute-forcing their way through to put on resume rather than actually learning, which isn't suprising based on a lot of the people I've dealt with in my work.

    • despavr on 30/09/2024 - 00:48

      Thanks for sharing your insight. Genuine question, weren't most of these courses available for free previously, anyways? Where you only had to pay to recieve certificates upon completion? Maybe i misunderstood the benefits of Plus but that's all i seem to see. Thanks again!

      • Wombatstew on 30/09/2024 - 02:32

        I’m not sure of all details but looks that way. Eg the Google Data Analytics courses used to be complete free to enroll in but now that’s also behind the paywall.

    Thanks, hope they won't cancel or suspend the account for misusing some clause in fineprint of T&C…

    I was going to pull the trigger next week for an yearly subscription that I received a 30% discount on a few days ago.

    Thanks @Scrooge McDeal

    With the payment, I was able to add a Vanilla Visa gift card directly (with zero balance) from Woolworths. That was about 7 hours ago. Used NordVPN Mexico in incognito and location is Mexico. Cancelled subscription straightaway.

    • maggiemee on 30/09/2024 - 19:44

      why did you need to cancel if your visa is zero balance anyway?

      • trixieb on 30/09/2024 - 20:01

        Don't want to be asked to pay in a year's time.

  • auswriter on 30/09/2024 - 09:26

    I canceled my subscription yesterday for a new account I created to benefit from this deal (NordVPN + PayPal). But when I logged back in today, my subscription was gone. So today, I have deleted that account, created a new one, and set a reminder to cancel the subscription in 11 months. Forgot to read the warning: Are you sure you want to delete your PayPal account?
    (This action will unsubscribe you from active subscriptions that use this card. To avoid this, please edit your card information instead)

  • 12Sydney34 on 30/09/2024 - 09:41

    Thank you.
    Signed up.

    Cancel subscription immediately to be safe.
    Also, removed Coursera from paypal auto approved biller.

    After being ozbargain’ed, they might cancel and/or charge us..,

    • zzyss on 30/09/2024 - 09:54

      Yeah, I think to do this you have to use the desktop version, because on Mobile I couldn't find the "Subscriptions" tab.

      On desktop you go to My Purchases > Subscriptions (tab) and then there's an option to cancel subscription. After doing that then I went to remove my Paypal account and it seems to have worked (because it's not linked to any "active" subscriptions) and I still have access to Plus content.

        I cancel on mobile

        Settings
        Scroll down to Account
        My subscription
        Another pop up opens saying you subscribed via Desktop and may not cancel…
        But I could click on Manage subscription and cancel

        Got email confirmation that it was cancelled

    Hi @Scrooge McDeal, can you help me with step 4 please . Deactivate VPN and access paid courses as normal for one year

    • Scrooge McDeal on 30/09/2024 - 15:05

      That means once you signed up, you don't need your VPN to access the courses.

  • aussiecageman on 30/09/2024 - 10:20

    Been eyeing off a couple of courses but the price kept me from signing up to plus.

    Are these vpn like nord I see in iOS app. Is it safe to install in iPhone and do we need to sign up to use that?

    Or you guys generally install these VPNs in laptop only for safety

    Also when I logged in using sso of email, it says connected but Mexico servers not free says 80$ subscription… please GUIDE (it’s iPhone. App)

    • Scrooge McDeal on 30/09/2024 - 11:42

      You can use a free vpn to sign up with a Mexico location. Urban VPN and TunnelBear both have Mexico on their free version. Once you have signed up for free. Go to subscriptions and cancel subscription. You still keep your 12 months subscription. Also I have used Revolut virtual card and terminated that card.

    • Gervais fanboy on 30/09/2024 - 11:45

      I installed Urban VPN on my iPhone (thanks to op’s recommendation), it did the job for me and I had no issues.
      You can do this on your phone or your pc. It’s all the same imo.

  • User76 on 30/09/2024 - 11:53

    Thanks, doneski!

    Couple of notes:
    1. You can use your existing Coursera account, awesome!
    2. After you subscribe, for me, it took about 5-10 to fully appear in my settings to allow me to cancel. I logged out and back in too in that time, so try that if you can't cancel.
    3. My location was still set to Australia, and used AU CC.
