YouTube Premium (Turkiye) Family Plan Increased to TRY 159.99/Month ($7AUD)

edisonAU on 08/11/2024 - 17:06

Just got this from Youtube. I am glad that I still get hold of YT Premium in Turkiye as I was almost kicked out of it last month until I changed my credit card. They somehow took my new Australian credit card.

The cost increased from 115.99 to 159.99/month but at $7 for my whole family I am not complaining

      yt premium is so good for mobile watching, yt music. Listening to videos while phone is off, education, entertainment. For some you can mock yt premium all you want but for a lot of us youtube premium is amazing especially at $2ish a month

  • impoze on 08/11/2024 - 18:43

    Also got the same email

    Does this mean for those who were already using the Turkish Youtube premium who also got an email stating they need a turkey issued payment method, will now no longer be need and instead be charged with raised prices?

    • jpsnail on 10/11/2024 - 19:45

      I have the same question

  • suchan on 08/11/2024 - 20:36

    I was registered to YT Pakistan and they also refused my Aussie CCs so I'm now signed up to YT India via Apple Store, which seems to still be relatively well priced …

    • dazagrt on 09/11/2024 - 01:06

      How does that work? I thought the Apple Store only sold Apple products, in fact, that's all I can see in the Apple-Store-App on my iphone.

        They mean the apple App store, I did the same because I was also kicked off my Pakistan plan. Had to make new apple account set to turkey, and use a turkish apple store giftcard. But just got an email saying Family price through apple is 209 try now, $9.

        • dazagrt on 09/11/2024 - 12:42

          Ah now I see, you had to make a new account, that explains it, cheers.

    Got kicked off Ukraine the other day, 28C mastercard. Said update your payment method by 5th Dec. The India/Turkey loop holes are being tightened by this greedy corporation. Google is becoming the new Adobe

  • snuke on 09/11/2024 - 14:19

      Just got it for the family too. I think they're catching on in general

  • millers on 09/11/2024 - 16:02

    I just got the email saying I need to change to a Ukrainian payment method. Are there My cards like revolt that will work? What's the best way to avoid paying the insane prices for an Australian based subscription?

      It's still a legitimate bargain.

  • motion2082 on 09/11/2024 - 21:20

    Looks like India Family Plan is $7AUD a month now too

  • BuddhaBoy on 14/11/2024 - 18:42

    Hey Edison AU, I got that email too and day before yesterday got another email asking me to update payment to Turskish issued cc! Looks like my time with Turkey is over!

    • edisonAU on 15/11/2024 - 14:18

      Unfortunately, I have just received the same email as well, but further down saying that my Premium membership won't renew automatically next month.

  • edisonAU on 15/11/2024 - 14:17

    I have just received another email from Youtube. I guess I won't have to worry about the YTP Turkiye price increase anymore:

    Your YouTube Premium membership will not renew automatically and you’ll lose your YouTube Premium membership benefits on Dec 14, 2024. YouTube Premium memberships based in Turkey require a form of payment issued in Turkey.

    If you want to keep your benefits, it’s easy to restart your membership.

    Sorry to bump this thread but did anyone find a solution to this? I just got an email saying I need a Turkish credit card

    • tbgoose on 20/11/2024 - 13:24

      I was able to update my CC details to a new wise card and it accepted it. won't know if it works until Dec 12 to see if it charges me though.

      Not sur what I will do if it doesn't. Did look at getting a prepaid CC for one of these countries but it doesn't seem possible. Need a connect in that country you'd trust I think to load a prepaid card for you.

      • frankfu1122 on 08/12/2024 - 19:48

        Can you elaborate what you mean by a new wise card? I'm with Wise at the moment and I have several different currencies like pounds, nzd, hkd etc, do you mean if I buy some turkish currency, I might stand a chance? Or do you mean order a whole new card altogether?

  • ExtraSalt on 13/12/2024 - 14:34

    Any news or updates on this thread? i just got the dreaded email from YTP
