How To Fix Gift Card Can Only Be Used in Country Where they Were Purchased | Simple Method

- As I am uploading this video, this method is working and as I mentioned in the video you need an older phone so the Google Play goes to an older version.
It is confirmed to be Google's new ToS, so we won't be able to do anything about it unless they change it!
Sending feedback to them will surely help.
*Thank you for not being indian😌*
LMFAO
That's what I'm talking about
Lmao i feel you 😂
I was gonna say the same thing hahaha
Really actually
I'm literally in the US and bought it in the US but it's saying this message...Like bruh
Same wtf
Same
@@LimitPro1 I fixed it, atleast for me and i hope it works for you, use your mobile data and disconnect your wifi and try to redeem it.
@@belonn6121 it worked but now it is saying the same thing when I try to purchase an item.
@@LimitPro1 can you give me the specific error?
my problem is that I am in the US but it don't let me use my money. I get the same pop up as in the thumbnail
outrageous. This is why I refuse to buy anything from google.
Mine says it can only be used in the UK but I literally am in the UK and all my phone locations are set as Uk
same goes for me it says canada but my location is set to canada
@@LTTG81 same
@@LTTG81 did you fix it?
@@anthonyproplayz3882 nah I contacted the customer care they said , you have to be in the country yourself to use the girl card to that country then I said but apple gift cards don't have those issues then why with Google google they replied it is against terms and conditions.....I was like what......-_- . Now my 1000 dollar gift card gone to waste
Same but with austria
hey i tried everything , clearing cache and reinstalling my game and disabling playstore and using vpn to be in canada ..... and note i live in canada ..... my game doesnt let me purchase anything and says you must be in canada ... its bipolar sometimes it works but most time it says im not in canada for some dumb reason ... save me
lol no
Mine says you should be in united states like should I go there to buy 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️that's a really dumb update from Google I hope the fix it
@@yara.__. I am in the US and it's telling me to go to the US like bro what
@@miguellasanta5641 bruh then how do we actually fox that proble
@@yara.__.I got a new phone completely unrelated to this issue then i signed in to my Google account and tried to use the okay banace and it worked. I didn't put a Sim card in the new phone yet so just sign in on another device and try to use it there.
Honestly this is the 7 th vid have been to
You are a legend for making this video. In two clicks it worked. Thanks.
Omg thank u so much I had this problem and like I had to wait a whole week before I could spend my money
if you wait a whole week you, does it work?
Collectively if we don't use Google play balance by not sending money , I bet the ish issus get fixed quickly
vpn solution doesn't work... and google play will request an update before you can use it.... the play store does query the sim location... hence vpn or proxy won't work, unless you can spoof sim vendor and locations, which is for most users too complicated and impossible without rooting.
I let my friend who lives in United states to login my google play account and try to purchase for me and got same “ your google play balance can only be used in United states “ knowing he lives there which doesn’t make any damm sense
@@safa7akbar246 yes correct because the sim card with number to your Google account isn't located in the US. It is what Google told me when i tried same. 🤦♂️
@@romanromero5099 damn🥲
@@safa7akbar246 yep.... but funny is if you use credit card to pay in google play store... it doesn't care where you are.... however if it is a google gift card it is restricted, which defeats its purpose.
So their is no solution to it?
Still App says that i need to update to redeem my gift card
What did you do to my Google play store it's not working? Help
How do i get the lastest version back ? Also it keeps crashing whemever i try to buy a game
Edit: it updated but the buying the games still crashes
Best bet is to restart your device
@@ITheEqualizer Just asking, restart or reset?
@@_Quintus Restart so it auto updates the app
@@ITheEqualizer Thanks alot! Have a nice day!
@@_Quintus You too!
Didn’t work. hate Google.
i think the worst part is not being able to get ahold of google.. not to mention they let me spend most of the credit on the account > months later now they want a picture of the card i used to top up ?? who saves the used card months later after it worked lol .
How did they exactly allow you to do so
literally waiting 1-3 buisness days for 20$ worth of Robux, it not coming:😑😐
Same bro..
this is the bullshit thing about google that they need to fucking fix seriously its a bug that hasnt been fixed and it pisses me off
Fr
It doesn't work - It sais in the app it self - ,, Looks like you're using an old version of Play Store. Update to the latest version to continue "
same
@@ziko-5249 Open a ticket and request a refund. If they say they can't refund you, just keep spaming you want to talk to their supervisor - you'll get a refund. Cheers
@@MrCap-he9kz refund what
Me: this mostlikly works!
Game: STORE CONNECTION FAILED
me again: bruhhhhhhhhhhh
Same oufff
Just wasted 200 of my money and lost 100 cuz of this shitty system this is the reason i dont buy cards for fucking samsung
Ikr fam wasted my bloody money
I can't fing use it been searching all day to find a way
@@hackpeople1961 have you found anything i have some money stuck as well..
what am i supose to do with my balance rn
I even tried it on my mom phone which is American and even has American sim i thought it will work but nope
I made a song with this comment
I need help with this but something is abit different
I have an hotspot shield vpn and ever since I started it everything went to shit.
Everytime I tried buying something it says
"You must be in the United States"
And I tried to force stop the vpn from working and and I tried switching countries and it still wouldn't work.
Someone please help me.
Same
Same, I don't know what to do
Did you switch youre google play location to us?
@GhostFace I have this same exact problem.
I recently went to a different country for vacation for 45 days and brought a $45 giftcard which I couldn't use there and went back to the US and tried to use it again but it says I have to be in the US...
I go to settings and check which country Google thinks I'm in and it says US.
This is so irritating
Well fuck, not only did it not work, but now I'm stuck on an older version of the Google play store.
Says it's updating and then does nothing (and yes, I've restarted my phone, multiple times).
😞
will it works? Im trying to buy roblox
Lol
Chaii
when i uninstall the updates and i go in game to purchase, its unavaliable cause its says play store needs to be updated ;-;
Weird, since you won't get this error as long as you do this correctly.
@@ITheEqualizer i legit cant redeem at all now what do i do i need an newer version like this guy said
@@ITheEqualizer i bet i have to restart my phone now. Thanks
I am in the country where I bought the card, but it still writes to me
Bruh same for me it makes no sense
Same.
@@RaphBuzz did u manage to use the card?
@@luckyangel943 Yes. Contact their support. The Issue is because we used VPN in the past year so the account is like in a "black list" or something. Support will fix it easily by request. System security is broke and this is nonsense. We have no freedom already. Good luck!
@@RaphBuzz Thank you so much for your reply. I contacted them.
why google is doing this
They like to scam us :)
Idk
When i pressed on disable it said nothing and i don't know how to take it to the factory update also i am using a samsung
For me its work only when i turn off wifi and set budget😂😂😂
How do you set budget
Thank you for helping me 😊
Did it work???
@@kurdm1482yes it did
Hey bro look im in the US and they still saying that im not from the US so i got my phone from another country and i got my phone from 2 years do u know that i feel angry idk whats the main problem so i cleared my data and my cash and its still not working but at least thx for ur help u know something that playstore is trash
Same here did you figure out how to fix it
@@alessioradu1693 no it work well now
@@alessioradu1693 and someone hacked my gmail account this is why i feel angry bro
Why don't you try to create new account from us
@@Kenshhz._.4 no i dont want
What did you do to my play store? Now i cant redeem at all. How do i fix this Edit: fixed
How did you fix it?
@@narikane restart phone and then you get the new play store
@@narikane not reset you hold down the power button and you should get the choice to restart
It doesn't work I disabled and make it to an old version but it should didn't work maybe there is a bot or smt
Doesn't work
I tried everything and it doesn't work WHYYYY
Exact same situation! 40$ in my account and I cant even use it. Spam support until someone helps
I know right I wanted to use it on my game I was so excited and bruhh its not working 🥲😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@lovE_853 it ended up working I recommend walking a lottle bit or going to a live chat. The woman I talked to seemed like she was happy to help and somehow fixed the issue for me! Last time im using google play though for purchases
@@starco1946 hi do u know what type of live chat because I am having the same problem
@@Chilly29 google support should have a live chat option. But I recommend waiting a while. Just keep trying to purchase every once and a while and google should correct its glitch. I just kept trying about every hour or so for about a day and a half and then it just suddenly worked
i dont have clear app data also when i press disable and enable it dont work soooo i really dont care im done
Still there is a way thou but u need a trusted friend to do it
are you sleeping or something
It's just my voice
So you are telling me there is no way i can fix my purchase thing because i live in us and yesterday i was at school and redeemed a google play card and i i tried purchasing in game currency but it says i cant because i dont live in the us please tell there is something i can do i am stressing out i really wanted the thing i was trying to buy
same problem
Any solution?
I already redeem my code will I loose my balance if I click factory data will be removed?
nope
As an indian.. i feel same😌
I bought the fuckin play balance, i purchased with ut before, now its fuckin say i need to be in z US Xd
same bruh did you fix it?
@@dzagli NO, I didn't even research it
@@JUNXO i contacted support and they said wait for 3 days and they are gonna lmk reason and hopefully help me ts shi annoys me so much
@@dzagli Let me try that too, can u give me link or how i can contact em
@@JUNXO just type in google support make sure ur texting with 18+ gmail it got fixed for me i bought coins but i wish i didnt i just wasted 3500k...
I need help I bought the card not knowing that I can't use it if I'm from another country, can I somehow fix this problem and use a stinky google card?
I need that help too
Will it work on A20 ?
idk
when I hit disable it doesn't ask me anything tho
In different versions of phones the button might be elsewhere, and you need to find it, but the idea is the same.
FINALLY A PURE AMERICAN 😍
Sir this isn't working on my old phone Android 9 and is 5 years old, I get the same error message while purchasing, really getting headaches tried anything and nothing works, please could you find a solution that works it would save my life tyvm
Your everywhere bro we have to give up ik my bgmi uc business is also flop now 🥺💔 it's not going to work I try many things
@@abdulbasit9364 Never give up bro, listen if the update won't fix it, then you should give your account Google to one of your friends or parents that live in the United States and he can make the purchases for you, only this can save us
I even tried on old phone with Android 6 is not working is all lies and waste of time, the updates is the problem
I MIGHT have another solution which I will try to record, but as it's a bit harder it might take some time.
