Price increase, renewal and now youtube premium doesn't work.
Like the title said they increased their price it renewed and now it forces ads more often than having it for free. Cleared cache, uninstalled, and logged out and still is messed up. Chatted with YouTube support and their literally retarded and don't care. Won't refund the renewal, Won't fix the issue. Google play shows it active and payment processed and so does support but they refuse to refund or fix it.
They said other people are having the same issues and engineers are working on it.
Obviously theyre morons because the engineers messed it up to begin with.
Anyone else having issues?
Edit: My non student account email has a free trial for a month after not having premium for years and after activating it, testing it out. I switched to the non working account and low and behold it works like it should.
Youtube engineers are legit idiots and messed up the handshake verification in the code from their own parent servers. Apparently youtube servers are having issues acknowledging Google servers verifying certain things, which is why now a separate approved active account gets the stuck account working fine.
This should count as a vulnerability bounty. And yes I had deleted EVERYTHING. And it still had issues until "tricking" it.
Now if only the pirates could make it so I didnt have to use a student discount to do like 7 steps to get youtube for free via gift cards and cash back.
