    Thank you for that, I'll give it a try and let you know the result. I'm also seeing if I can get my hands on a real Turkish SIM in the meantime, I had no luck with the virtual sim providers. I obtained a Turkish number but never received the OTP from Netflix.

    I tried this and they asked me where I am located. So I just ran away.

    Should I have lied and said Turkey?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭-=al=-


    Pretty sure you're in Turkey 🙂

    Feb sub is due out of a/c tomorrow. Curve card expired. I have a Revolut as backup. What'll happen when payment can't be made with Curve? Will it auto switch to Revolut immediately or will it ask me to update Curve card details? Or should I make Revolut the preferred payment method tonight?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭-=al=-


    It should default to Revolut and do so from then on. Hopefully you have a few years left In that card.

    If you have to option to change it to default and it lets you, go for it, I personally won’t be rocking the boat unless I have to!

    Cheers! I'll change default to Revolut so. Thanks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,596 ✭✭✭G1032


    Payment went through so fingers crossed it'll all stay ok till that card expires in 2027

    I'm having trouble adding a new debit card to my Turkish account. My old card has expired and next payment is due soon.

    I've tried multiple new cards, using incognito mode with VPN to turkey and also tried it with no VPN.

    I've tried to add as a backup form of payment and I've also then attempted to change the payment method to a new card.

    I keep getting the same error:

    "sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later."


    -Any ideas?

    -Has anyone tried adding a Turkish Currency account to their Revolut account?

    Try a fire stick and update there

    The internet isn’t for everyone



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭DeWanderer


    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I don't have a fire stick. I see a previous poster mention using an "apk loader for windows". Any further information on how this works?

    You can load the Netflix android app onto a windows machine and try it from there.

    You would need to install the loader and then the Netflix apk within it to run it correctly, after that try updating the details from there

    Can you add a backup card via the Firestick or does the Firestick way only work on expired accounts?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,781 ✭✭✭Flaneur OBrien


    I'm trying this today, but pingme says "no numbers available for now" is this a normal thing, will it take a few hours to find numbers? Never used the service before, thanks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭copper04


    Can anyone explain the Firestick method of signing up for Netflix Turkey.

    I see posts saying its super easy but after scrolling thru pages and pages I can not find

    a reference as to how it works.

    Any help appreciated,

    Thanks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,596 ✭✭✭G1032


    I think, but I could be wrong, that you can add a new card to an expired subscription via Firestick. Asked a couple posts back for clarification. I don't want to go messing with my account now but if I could add a backup card to my active subscription via Firestick I would do that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭DeWanderer


    Is a VPN set to Turkey needed for the Firestick method?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 115 ✭✭kevez


    Hi Guys

    I currently have an Irish account and if i want to change to a Turkish account, can I just cancel my sub and wait till Netflix stops working and then login to my account using a Turkish VPN and renew with Turkish Netflix vouchers? or do i need a Turkish credit card?

    TIA

    Kevin



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 331 ✭✭sibersha


    Try again today, sometimes the numbers take a day or two to load.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,781 ✭✭✭Flaneur OBrien


    I tried this, but it keeps saying incorrect password when I try to login



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭PopTarts

    You can't sign up for Netflix turkey but you can add a payment card through the fire stick app to a lapsed account. If you set up a new Netflix account using a Turkish vpn and then log in on the fire stick app you should be able to add a payment card but not 100% sure.

    Have turkish vpn on and trying to sign up on Netflix turkey using my email address but keeps saying "something went wrong" regardless of what email address I use. Is there any reason that it is doing this?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,407 ✭✭✭ooter


    I'd say it's the VPN you're using, I just tried to set up a new account using Express VPN and I got as far as adding a payment method.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭-=al=-


    If it’s a popular free vpn with a common IP address used it might be blacklisted or flagged. Maybe the account will be flagged for suspicious activity idk

    I presume adding a card to a lapsed account is an option in the firestick/android app as you already have your account details and just need the updated payment.

    I would guess the app is a lighter version of Netflix and a bit more basic therefor avoiding a lot of the location, vpn and browser issues

    Worthwhile investing in a good vpn anyways



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 57 ✭✭DeWanderer


    If not already doing so try using an incognito tab, while using your vpn.

    Only works for me with incognito.

    I was pleasantly surprised to see money taken from my bank account this morning for Netflix.

    I have a Turkish account. AIB card expired.

    Tried adding new card using incognito and keep solid VPN. Got errors.

    Also tried same with my Irish IP address. Same errors.

    Card was definitely not accepted after multiple attempts to make it either a backup or a replacement to my expired card.

    This morning, magically, money was taken from my new card.

    I can only guess that someone or some software at netflix sorted the issue.

    Anyway, hopefully this works for others too.

    My OH had to change her bank card and her YouTube premium and Netflix are still being taken out of her new card, not sure how it's happening cos she hasn't tried to update her payment details on either.

    Anyone having issue buying turgame vouchers lately. Keeps telling me I’m using a VPN/proxy and I’m not. Can’t seem to get around it to top up my Netflix credit
