Seems the total cost for all 3 in India is less than just YT premium here.
Does this actually work? Have you had any issues?
I used NordVPN to get Turkish YouTube premium. My account is Canadian but I used my Wealthsimple prepaid Mastercard to pay for the subscription and it didn’t ask me for a billing address and it accepted it perfectly. Plus no FX fee
Easy. Get VPN. Set location to Argentina (for example). Look up a real address in Argentina and use it. Remake a new Google account/change the location to Argentina. Pay for your account with a refillable mastercard (I got a few in SE Asia). Been paying for youtube premium for over a year now, no problems. This works for pretty much every single service. Some people don’t use a real address, or they never change their account location so they can’t get it to work, but it’s pretty straightforward.
I do this but I have a Indian bank account and parents address. Also for Google I need a separate Google play account where the country is set to India.
For me, It does not work for some apps like Disney plus even using VPN but Im sure I can get it to work if I use a private DNS just too lazy to have it setup.
Here is what I pay in cad and I don’t use VPN
Yt premium - family plan (5 devices) - 3 cad per month
Spotify premium - family plan (6 devices) - 3 cad per month
Google one - 100 gb plan - 1 cad per month
I do this for netflix, I had to do the gift card work around. After the gift card runs dry netflix automatically picks it up from the card stored.
Tried for youtube/spotify but couldn’t do it
Pay around 8 bucks for the top tier plan, unsure how much it is now
I used Surfshark to get Netflix from India premium for just 11$ lol CAD. it asked for a number skipped the step and it worked

It works, you dont even need VPN to watch in most instances. However, you will need a bank account or credit card in India to be able to buy the subscription. Credit cards from outside India would not work. How I know? I have a spotify India subscription.
Which VPN works for India? Didn’t some indian government rule cause all indian VPN servers to be removed?
Many VPNs don’t provide Indian IP address since it’s banned there. I have found not all the VPNs work for India even when they advertise it. I’ve only been able to use Express VPN successfully.
What payment method do yall use? The card i use for spotify isnt accepted since it needs a matching billing address
If you were going to buy a VPN, you wouldn’t need to buy YouTube premium. Set location to Russia, no ads due to sanctions. Not sure about Netflix, but their catalogue is different in every country. They don’t have the rights to every show in every state, so that doesn’t sound like it would be very useful even if it worked.
If you’re going for privacy, use tails and tor along with a bridge and XMR. No need for a VPN. All the mainstream VPNs are owned by the same 1-2 parent companies that have a history of working with the feds w/o warrants, but pinky promise not to do it again. There’s also the issue of the 5, 9, and 14 eyes that make dropping dimes mandatory if the VPN company is in any of those countries, and straight up glowie honeypots.
If you have a vpn, sail the 7 seas.
half my addresses are in turkey, not sure if those loopholes are closed by now.
talk to indian or turkish friend
Vpn based payments have been blocked
I’ve had YT premium for about 2-3 year’s from India, but its a lot more annoying to do now.
Most of the free VPN’s no longer actually work in India (they dont tunnel to India, just close by) due to government laws, and even if you manage to get it to work, India changed their Credit/debit card payments and the only way I got it to work again was to use my parents Indian bank account that they set up.
I think Turkey is the new popular option
Netflix will work but youtube wont let you use your payment method. Reserve bank of India changed some regulations which stopped out of country payment methods to work.
NordVPN worked well through an Ukrainian server for me but I did it with Incognito ON, not sure if it has any effect on this.
Or have an Indian friend to do all this and pay him/her here
