I used to have premium for $9.99/mo until I got an email about them raising their rates come December. No thank you.

Use a VPN and set your location to turkey. It’s ~$15-20 for the year. You never have to use the VPN again once you’ve purchased the subscription

Just tried and it said I needed a payment method from the country.

Just move to Turkey. Start a new job. Find the love of your life. Get married. Have kids. Grow old together, and support your children as they age in to adulthood. Spend your golden years relaxing. Maybe visit some beaches.

Oh yeah, and I guess use your Turkish payment method at some point in there too. I'm guessing at some point in there you got like a credit card or something

Huh, it worked fine for me, but this was maybe ~3 months ago.

You could probably use Wise, but why bother.

India is even cheaper. I pay 1$ a month.
