"This item is not available in your country" - Australia. No apps available.

[alexoz]

Hi, 

I have just set this up and I cannot download any apps. I'm in Australia and receive the following error message:

"This item is not available in your country."

All of the apps are 100% local Australian apps (abc, 7plus, 9now, etc).

I’m from Australia and purchased the Chromecast yesterday within Australia. 

I've troubleshooted everything - factory reset, restart, created new google account, checked all google settings, payment settings, location settings, google home settings - i have no idea what the problem is. Very frustrating! please help! thanks!

All sorted thanks. Had something to do with an old payment profile still sitting on the account.
