I’ve only subscribed to YouTube Premium for the past two months, and I like the ad-free experience and Music streaming bundled in one price, PHP159 or $3/month. Will this probably my last? Yesterday morning, Google automatically charged me for my YouTube Premium subscription through my e-wallet service.

It was successfully deducted, but the service didn’t update its validity. Does Google want me to charge twice, or they want me to go back on uBlock Origin on Librewolf (desktop) and NewPipe on Android? lol

EDIT (2023-10-22): Google recently refunded the amount to my e-wallet. So far, my account is still active. If ever Google bans my account, then probably my domain will be banned.

    I can confirm that of both iOS solutions I have mentioned (Safari with AdGuard and Brave browser), neither require you to be logged into any Google product. Both solutions successfully block ads.

      Right. But I don’t just watch random videos from links. YouTube is my main media platform where I have tons of subscriptions and good recommendations.

      I just hoped I could keep that without paying for premium, but it might actually be the best option for me.

        I can also confirm that both iOS solutions I have mentioned (Safari with AdGuard and Brave browser), both also work with you logged into Youtube. They work whether you are logged in or logged out. I tested both ways just before making this pair of comments and daily use the Brave solution.

            This will be my last post. But as I said, both solutions work no matter if you are logged in or logged out.
