You Tube Premium.....can no longer pay with foreign Mastercard

[Ned]

Email today from YT saying I must use a Thai card for payment. Problem is my two banks here won't allow it. ....ie Bangkok and Krung Thai.

Anyone out there using another Thai bank card?

Cheers

I am currently paying Western pricing for YouTube Premium, but next month, I plan to switch to Thai pricing. I’ll be using my Bangkok Bank Mastercard Visa Debit card, and I’ve already confirmed with Bangkok Bank that there won’t be any issues.

Your issue may be that your cards are not Visa/MC.
 

Alternatively, you can use TrueMoney Wallet, which allows you to top up with any local debit card. This could be a solution if your current bank cards don’t work.

I got same email. Surprised it took YouTube so long. I switched from UK credit card to Kbank debit card and Google were able to authorise a zero baht transaction. Hopefully when they try to take the 179 Baht next month that will also get authorised.

Evidently, AIS customers can subscribe to YouTube Premium for 139 baht per month for the first three months, and then 159 baht per month after that. To subscribe, dial 6569#
