    Has your account expired yet? If you try to renew while your subscription is still active, you won't get new pricing.

    Update - I may be wrong but I think NordVPN seem to be using servers in a number of different countries as a work around to access US Netflix. It appear that when I connect to a Turkish server I am getting US Netflix but Turkish everything else!

    Grrr - May try registering using hola and using NordVPN then for viewing.

    Switched my account over to a Turkish one at the weekend. All these little savings help!
    Many thanks to everyone on this thread for the helpful posts on how to go about it - particularly OmegaGene
    Used Hola (could only get it to work on my phone not on tablet) and the good old Revolut

    I'm looking to sign up for this, I've tried several free VPN's but no luck.

    I'll have to buy one, even a paid trial, but I don't know which one to buy, could anyone suggest one that works for Turkey please?

    Thanks

    Read the last few posts it’s all there

    Thanks, I did read them and noticed some got free vpns to work, I tried multiple free ones and had no luck.

    I also read a lot had gone for Mexico as they couldn't get Turkey to work, I would prefer Turkey.

    I read other vpns mentioned but wasn't sure if they were free or paid, that's why I was asking, as I was unsure.

    You would expect it to be binary.

    Hola on a phone, set to turkey, log in to Netflix.com.

    How can this work for 95% of us, but there's a small number of posters adamant it's not working for them:confused:

    I've had Hola for a really long time but I don't use it very often. I can log in and select Turkey but as soon as I go to Netflix, it says I need to upgrade as Netflix requires fast streaming servers. I've tried it on my phone and there no free option only a paid option.

    I've paid for NordVPN and I can get as far as the payment option but when I enter revolut details, it says Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later.

    I've been in touch with Revolut and they said theres no declined transactions on my card. I've never had Netflix on this email address, it's a new account.

    NordVPN does not support Turkish Netflix. Most servers are setup to access US Netflix. In fact all servers other than uk, japan, Netherlands and canada all divert to US Netflix.

    So - you won’t be able to sign up to Turkish Netflix with it. Or so I believe...

    On a laptop for Turkey, on Chrome and Opera, I am offered monthly but on Edge and Firefox I am offered weekly.

    Payment fails every time on Chrome and Opera, I haven't tried it on the weekly options.

    On the phone, it shows the VPN is active for Turkey but on every browser I use it reverts to Netflix US.

    I'll try an Ipad tomorrow

    Thanks for the tip, I spoke with NordVpn technical support and they said:

    'As we use Smart Play on all of our servers, if you connect to a server which does not support Netflix (in this case - Turkey), you will automatically be redirected to US library. Thus, you will not be able to purchase a subscription plan for cheaper.'

    I could get to payment stage for Turkey, it didn't revert to US on the laptop but it rejected the card, giving the impression the card was the issue.

    I checked and the card wasn't the issue, having now spoken with technical support, they say I shouldn't have gotten as far as I did with NordVPN.

    Bank of Ireland just reversed my December netflix turkey payment. Payment went out fine since April as a mysterious looking turkish lira payment but this month it seems to have come is as a euro payment to netflix.com and they chose to block it.

    Just did an account for a friend in work.

    100% worked.

    Windscribe VPN. One month is only €5

    Make sure to clear your cache and cookies in Chrome.
    Then connect to the turkey on Windscribe.

    Then go to google and type in netflix turkey

    and that honestly should be it.

    This discount was nice whilst it lasted. I'll be readying to transfer my Lira wallet in Revolut to go back to my Euro wallet now :(.

    Ive gone back a few pages and dont see the answer to this question so sorry if its been asked before.

    I have a paid VPN, I have revolut. Im happy enough with the payment process, however once Ive paid for turkish netflix, when I login at home what netflix am I gonna see, I told the kids about it and theyre terrifed they wont see their programs. Me, not so much.

    Bad experience with the cheap turkish deezer thing.

    I imagine if you're already on it, and paying with Turkish lira then you should be grand.

    I just can't believe that people would get on to technical support in Netflix asking for help in trying to exploit a loophole.

    Your Netflix will be Irish Netflix unless you use a vpn.

    The only Turkish involvement in this loophole is where your money is paid

    As long as you turn the vpn off, you will get Irish netflix. If you have vpn turned on, you’ll get whatever country you’ve set it to

    It was technical support in NordVpn, not technical support in Netflix.

    Me either. however I feel like when the game is up Netflix will shift our billing to our "home" country somehow.
