Just heads up Youtube in Argentina, Turkey just switched off their cheap Youtube Premium. India, Pakistan others switched to GBP rate. 12.99GBP/month
I found only Ukraine still works with 99UAH (2.04£) month.
Hurry up before they switched this one off.
I'm not proud to share this loophole. Last time somebody shared this here about India Youtube Premium it got so many likes that after 6yrs of me using cheap Premium its finally over. I believe because too many ppl started abusing it. It not fair of local people who wont afford premium when its changed to UK or American prices.
Anyway I love Hot Uk Deals community and you guys saved me so much money of deals that I had to share it. At least for now till/if its gets hot. Then ill take it down. Don't want to get blown up as youtube will react to it.
I used Revolut online bank no problem, there are many alternatives.
Please stop saying that you paid for Premium few days ago in Lira or Pesos or whatever and its still works. It doesn't from now. They changed today. If you grandfathered monthly price that's great but for new users they will pay US,UK prices. They just changed Argentina to US price, few hours ago was unavailable now 12.99US. Turkey is still unavailable probably will be uk price. Still shows this below
Ukraine left and perhaps few more cheap countries. But Ukraine is cheapest

i'm going to guess this is just the OP's VPN being identified by Google and presenting the local option.

Actually it is not fair on everybody. They have proven they can put out a digital product for pennies and still make a profit. Which shows that the excess is zealous overcharging. When the figures in a price do not change despite choosing a different currency, then is not taking into exchange rates into account, which would allow for a fair marketplace, but profiteering for the sake of it with a heavy hint of greed

Who really knows YouTubes profit/loss? Could be Google runs at a loss for the data obtained for example

I got an email saying my Argentinian account was going up to 869 pesos a month as of this month. That’s what I got charged and that is £0.84 a month. Looked on my account and still says I’ll be charged that next month too.

They can't charge in foreign currency in other countries. It is all about your poor VPN.
Here, just check prices in Turkey:
Change VPN mate.

Please STOP everyone showing their subscriptions. Yes YouTube might honour your deal and you will pay same monthly deal. It's called grandfather price. LUCKY YOU Many companies respect that. But NEW subscriptions can't get cheap deals any longer. Not sure perhaps my 3 VPNs not good or I got rusty after so many years using various vpns. PLEASE show me new subscription below 2£/months with your VPN and Ill delete this. Anyhow I made awareness of this, ignore this on your own risk if you don't need cheap Premium

I’m still paying around £1.60 via Turkey even after the increase, or is it no longer cheap for new subs?
Or maybe your VPN hasn’t spoofed your location properly? (edited)

How to get the deal: 1. Use VPN which works. Check in google show my ip and make sure you in Ukraine. 2. go to youtube .com /premium 3. when you see 99UAH go ahead and proceed membership 4. you can use old account or new. It works even if you have yearly prepaid and still have premium. They will charge after your premium expire 5. to pay use bank which supports international payments with low fees. Like Revolut, Monese or others.. 6. Sometimes they ask you to add your card to google as youtube belongs to google. And they use google pay system. 7. I have done it for 6yrs and its definitely worth the hassle

I've been happily using Smarttubeon the firestick and Brave blocked all the ads when I've been using my browser but recently I've had issue's on my desktop, they seem to have sussed things out and force you to turn off ad blocking or the video won't load.
Anyone found a way round it?

Genuine question... Why would I need you tube premium? Is it just to avoid seeing ads?

You also get YouTube Music included

Can you use a trial vpn and set it up then activate the YouTube subscription? Or does your YouTube account ways have to be logged in via vpn?
ImSoBroke
Easiest way is to make a google billing account with the country you want to use and then pay thru google payments

My subscription is 869 Argentinian pesos per month - equivalent to £0.85. It went through my credit card a couple of days ago and the upcoming January payment is showing in my account too.
