Tips to Boost your eBucks - 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022

So you used your Sa address but only Argentinian VPN and it worked?

I used an Argentinian address as well, maybe that's why my checkout failed.

Yes. Although I only put in my street address and city. Also, I used an incognito window once the bear had dug his little tunnel.

I’ve got it to work

If not too much hassle, pm me some hints pls. Seems like you can re-create family group only once.

I changed Netflix and Showmax subscriptions to use the virtual card, but when I try to change Afrihost, I get an error that cards starting with 403812 cannot be used. Anybody else experience this?

Looks like Afrihost have updated their system. I was able to update my Afrihost payment to use the virtual credit card today.

Mine worked without an issue about a 2 weeks ago.

I've worked it out after much fiddling, I think trying to use my FNB cards that are in limbo was screwing things up.

You need to have an Argentine VPN(I used Tunnelbear free) when buying the Youtube Premium subscription to get the cheaper rate, first 2 months are free as well and the card can be any South Africa card debit or CC but the address that you input as being linked to that card has to be an Argentine address or the transaction will fail.

I had already had the family set up. I cancelled my existing sub and resubscribed at the ARS rate. Used my SA address when asked - they only needed street and city.

Thanks. Tried this now, and appears to have worked. Will wait until i get billed.

Did they allow you to buy the subscription with the address on the payment method being a South African address, ie the country of the address ends in South Africa, so essentially the only thing you changed to get the better deal was the Argentinian VPN ?

pretty much exactly as Speedster said.
Cancelled my family sub, and then did as follows:
1) vpn
2) incognito
3) family account already setup with all places filled.
4) only street address + city completed, which is mine.
5) vc card used.
6) disconnect etc.

Don't find anything for that amount?

I see Congo A Forgotten World for R0.03 would 2 like these count as 2 online streams?

You need 4 different streams, Google only counts for one.

Would 4 Google Play Store purchases of books or apps count as 4 streams?

Book 1
+ Book 2
+ App 1
+ App 2
= 1 online service = Google

 

[airborne]

+ Book 2
+ App 1
+ App 2
= 1 online service = Google

So they are doing it by the number of online services you use not the amount of individual purchases.

So to get 4 streaming services counted you would need min one purchase on each say Spotify, Google Play, Apple store and Netflix?

Yeah so as per the previous posts the way that I'm doing it is:

1 Netflix = R169 (Premium Plan)
2 Spotify = R99 (Family Plan)
3 PlayStation = R4 (Avatar)
4 Youtube = R28 (Argentina Family Plan)
5 Google Playstore = R0.13 (ebook)

All via VCC to max out tier points.

Lol I'm not blessed enough to have those facilities near me. Also after yesterday I may never have them in my area.

 

[HowTo]

Think my EBucks is broken. Still on lvl. 4 and cant see any updates all on Zero.
Need a 1000 point to move up to lvl. 5.

Then they mention August?

He only needs 4. He's got 5. Why add those other two?
