Hi There!

I have Amazon Prime, but one thing I've never cracked is being able to buy music on Amazon digitally. It always complains about my payment method. I end up sending Amazon Gift Vouchers to US Friends who buy the albums I want which is a hassle. 

Has anyone managed to get a combination that works that they would share with me?

I got it to work on a new account because I couldn't be bothered to remove all the addresses and payment methods from my main account, but yeah you basically have to go down the gift card route.

I added a US delivery address (just used my Youshop one) then gifted the new account from my main account the amount I needed using a gift card. I then ordered the digital music and movies using with a US VPN active and it went through just fine and used the gift card payment and didn't ask for a credit card.

It cuts out the need of needing to ask a friend, but you will still need 2 accounts if you don't want to remove your NZ info. I haven't found a better way yet.
