I’ve just received an email telling me that my Youtube channel has been deleted and that I can no longer use my premium Youtube services.
The channel had no videos. I have the impression that it was deleted because I paid for a Youtube Premium subscription with a VPN in Poland.
Have other people experienced a similar situation?
Do you have a screenshot of this email?
Frick I just did that with Poland and a VPN. When did you do that? I would hate to lose my channel
If this is true then google is stepping to the next level. What will be next, deleting your gmail account ?
I’ve had my youtube account blocked. I did the apple turkey trick. Worked for a week, and now I can’t access the account anymore 
Yeah this is the worst case scenario I’m afraid of. I think I’ll stick to using adblockers and browsers that allow background playback on mobile when my sub expires in the next few days. It’s not 100% foolproof, but it’s extremely unlikely they’ll be deleting accounts for using those.
Edit: Opened up my Youtube app this morning to the unfortunate sight of an ad. So my setup now: On mobile, Brave browser with background play enabled (YouTube Music defaults to music videos in most playlists but you can still make your own playlists with album versions of songs). On TV, Albanian VPN through NordVPN (this also blocks ads on mobile but you don’t get background play which is why I use Brave).
Edit 2: I totally forgot that I used to use YouTube Vanced before I had Premium 
. Well, now there’s YouTube ReVanced and it works super well! Very customizable yet retains the original YouTube interface, much better than using the web version in Brave. Honestly, there are even some parts of it that I prefer over stock YouTube, such as the old resolution changer and SponsorBlock integration. I wish there was something as beautiful that could patch the YouTube TV app for Google TV. I tried SmartTube but I really don’t like the interface and wish there was something that works with the actual YouTube TV interface. Turning on captions and changing resolutions takes way too much effort and the comment view in Google’s app is way better imo.
tell youtube to stop paying people / buying bots to dissuade people from doing this.
This has freaked me out. I have just cancelled my Serbian subscription. I have had my account too long for it to get deleted!!
Q: If I have genuine debit card with my name on it from polish bank BUT i am currently in UK so need to use VPN to see polish yt prices and buy it that way will my yt account also be banned?
Did all the channels for the family members also get deleted too? Im not too fussed in my own channel getting deleted, but my kids will be very annoyed. 
I guess we should always create or use secondary gmail/YouTube accounts so we won’t be majorly inconvenienced if Google deletes those accounts
Why u pay with VPN in Poland? Its in their terms and conditoons that they will delete our channel and etc. In case you break rules. So why are u shocked ? Wtf.
Proof or Press X to doubt
The debit /credit card was from Poland?
Did you were all the time using YouTube under the vpn with Poland as location?
You should’ve used ReVanced instead of the financial gymnastics: r/revancedapp
Yeah, can we get some proof of this.
People are reporting that, yes
Did you have any non-turkish credit card assigned to your account? Or how did they find out that you are not actually from turkey if you are only using iTunes credit?
Only your Yt or also gmail ?
I doubt it actually. Need some screenshot as proof
