Adobe Creative Cloud Turkey
Demetria Dobbin
Admir, no one can force you to choose to purchase the plan available in your country, but you may encounter a payment error or other problems that could lead to the plan being canceled without warning.
I don't see a good enough answer, the trick is, is it possible to buy an Adobe product and use it in another country through an IP address from Turkey? Today, it is possible to change IP addresses through several legal applications. Why are Adobe programs so cheap in Turkey?
@Admir3048356171xh the answers have enough information that can be gathered without actually trying this. It's mentioned that folks have seen issues when using creative cloud apps with VPN, then another point regarding the payment system matching the country from which the purchase is made.
If we look at it from Adobe's perspective, they have variable pricing for different locations, now if one tries to game the system and incur loss on Adobe then they do risk the possibility of getting banned if/when Adobe figures it out. So it might be possible, it might be troublesome and is surely risky when you are actually paying the money albeit a bit less if you get success.
A large number of countries and territories have no Creative Cloud plans for individuals \u2013 116 of them to be precise. While Adobe isn\u2019t interested in what IP address you use while subscribing, it does care what your billing address is. As such, a VPN won\u2019t be able to help if your billing address is in one of the countries where Adobe Creative Cloud isn\u2019t available.\n","author":"@type":"Person","name":"Justin Schamotta","description":"Justin Schamotta is an experienced writer, having spent the past two decades covering everything from consumer tech to corporate malfeasance.

However, the key difference is that some VPNs \u2013 like those in our recommended provider list \u2013 are so fast that any drop in speed is negligible.\nIf you do notice your connection slowing down when using an otherwise fast VPN, it\u2019s possible that the problem is with Adobe Creative Cloud software syncing your files. You can check whether this is the cause by running a speed test and then pausing \u201cFile syncing\u201d by first clicking on the cloud icon in the desktop app\u2019s toolbar. Running another speed test with file syncing paused will tell you whether this is the problem.\n","author":"@type":"Person","name":"Justin Schamotta","description":"Justin Schamotta is an experienced writer, having spent the past two decades covering everything from consumer tech to corporate malfeasance.

How to get a Discount on Adobe Creative Cloud: Cheaper subscriptions Looking to make huge savings on Photoshop, Illustrator and other Adobe Creative Cloud apps? We'll give you the rundown on which VPNs will get you the cheapest prices. Writer: Justin Schamotta Updated: July 10, 2023
As well as a means to snag the cheapest deals for Adobe apps like Fresco, Aero and Photoshop Express, a VPN will improve your overall online experience. For example, changing your virtual location provides access to otherwise restricted online services, while built-in encryption makes browsing safer while traveling abroad.
Because free VPNs rely on advertising for income, most have some form of logging policy to gather sellable data. Some of the worst free VPNs fail to encrypt traffic and may also leak your IP address. Others ask for unnecessary device permissions and can act as vectors for malware.
I living in Turkey and purchased an annual subscription (from adobe.com) Creative Cloud ALL APPS 100 GB on 03.04.2024... I was using that original apps on my iMac and Macbook Air. AND I did not share my password with anyone.
Yesterday i just received an e-mail stating that my account has been canceled due to fraudulent activity. When I check my account, I see that it has been converted to a free membership.
I don't see any reason for my account to be closed. In rare cases, VPN may be turned on on my computer, but I live in Turkey and had been using it authentically for a long time before this annual subscription.
I occasionally (once or twice a month) go to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and used the IP there, but this country is only recognized by Turkey and the same currency is used there.
I can't see any other reason for my account to be closed. During my conversation with the customer representative yesterday, she said that this review would take between 5-7 business days. They advise me to create a trial account during this process! An account that I have been paying for for years and purchased annually last month was cancelled.
Attached you can see the conversation and invoice. Has anyone experienced this ridiculous situation? Or is there any solution to this ridiculous situation?

As a turkish citizen, same thing happened to me on the same day as well but my account turned into business account instead of free account. I don't have access to my account and subscription anymore and have been told to create a dispute with my bank for a refund.
I assumed this incident was caused due I've installed apps on both my computers (personal and work) and due business computer installation and thus my account has been converted into business/teams account but the thing is I'm a software (backend) developer and lightroom/photoshop was only purposed for personal usage and not related to my work nor to my employer. Also I remembered that when purchasing this subscription, i was using a virtual card provided by my bank (as always when purchasing from internet) and it didn't work out a couple of times and had to use physical card number. May be those retries are the reason, who knows? I'm also waiting a response and details from adobe but they don't disclose any details why it has happened, so I think it can happen in future due some adobe data engineer runs a wrong query to detect fraudulent activities and let it happen again.
