Mine went up during that increase. It was cheaper in September than it was in October, Nov and this months just went through today at the same price as those two previous.

So what's the current state of play? I had a Revolut loaded with lira but lost the card, can't put my new card on as a payment method (doesn't seem like there's an option to anymore with PlayStation either), I bought a gift card but it's not allowing me to redeem it, any tips on the go?

ooter · 22-12-2022 9:42am

Are you using a vpn @oodles19 ?

oodles19 · 22-12-2022 3:38pm

I am yes, I just managed to get a gift card through there but I can't add my new Revolut card unfortunately. This might all be moot in a few months anyway, as I had the max subscription to allow family members in different homes to use my account, and that looks to be on the way out from the looks of things...

A follow up on the above.

Logged into netflix there today hoping to see an payment failed screen but payment went through for €3.54 (when converted from Lira) on the AIB account and the new AIB debit card is linked on the Netflix account.

So I'm not sure how - did it update automatically? And they pulled from bank IBAN etc? Or in my messing around I actually added the new card, but yet I didn't get any email confirmation saying such or had to authorise the card in any way. And old card was listed as payments method up until the other day. So it's a mystery to me!

Just note AIB debit is screwing you on charges for currency exchange. It's 1.75% which is prob 5-6c but it's min 65c. I'd keep trying to add an alternative card and when it works, change it to primary card.

My aib visa credit card expired recently and my new card started to be debited the next month without me doing anything,card number didn't change but expiry did so it was automatically changed by netflix turkey.

69.99 Lira on any exchange market is circa €3.52, so can't see this extra charge?

from previous posts i clicked on chat support and you should be chatting with an Agent and ask for a back up payment method this way you can add your card / revolut and that should work.

RogerThis · 13-01-2023 12:29pm

Do I have to remove my Revolut card from Netflix before I can sign up with the Turkish gift card?

-=al=- · 14-01-2023 4:35pm

I don’t think so. Leave it as a backup option. When you use the gift card to get the ball rolling hopefully Netflix takes the remaining gift card credit and combines it with your backup option as payment for the month. Hopefully from then on it just takes it from the card.

This is what happened for me. I bought one Colombian gift card and applied it. Once that first month ran out, the payment method defaulted to back to my Irish card and COP26,900 was taken from it successfully.

BKWDR · 16-01-2023 12:31pm

Morning, so Argentina went up to 16e for a 4screen HD account.

Whats the easiest country to transition to?

Is it still , cancel account, let it expire , next day you VPN and sign in with country of choice and sign up and it should take payment from card on account still? (i know it wont be this easy!)

Bastard's are increasing the turkish netflix, for me it'll increase to about €6.50 (4 screen HD)

To be fair, everytime Netflix increase the price in Turkey the lira craps the bed and it ends up not really affecting us too much.

TheDriver · 17-01-2023 9:52am

Can you imagine being Turkish and seeing the price increase though? Thats 41.99 to 54.99 (May 2021) to 77.99 (June 2022) to 93.99 (Nov 22) to 130.99 Feb 23. 3 times the price.

Looking back to 55trl days, I was paying about 5.40. so dulpit is correct, the price increase isn't massive for us

CastorTroy · 17-01-2023 6:15pm

Gotta pay for another Harry & Meghan documentary and dating shows. Cancelling al the scripted shows isn't helping enough.

bromley52 · 17-01-2023 6:54pm

Get Turkish Prime Video for about 40c/month.

Got email today

We’re updating our prices to bring you more great entertainment. Your monthly price will change to TL 97.99 on February 18th, 2023.

Will go up to €4.78 from €3.47 (2 screen)

I struggle to find anything to watch on it these days

"updating our prices to bring you more great entertainment" When they ban country hopping they will find themselves short of millions of customers

Redriddick · 20-01-2023 5:13pm

Anybody successful in updating payment details for Argentina

Same, find it very hard to find anything of interest to me. I find myself more and more reverting to the High Seas 😉

I have Netflix basically free as I have a 100% rebate and at this point even with my being "Turkish" I am finding less and less value in it.

TetraSonic55 · 22-01-2023 8:05pm

I got an email earlier saying my plan will go up to 130.99 TL. It's the 4 screen plan. So many price increases....

muloc · 23-01-2023 10:06am

Will this impact those paying monthly with Revolut?

16 digit number, cvv and expiry possibly not changing?

Hopefully as long as the card details remain the same we should be ok.

Pakistan will end up being the cheapest after this comes into effect won't it.

TheDriver · 23-01-2023 12:06pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120144888#Comment_120144888

I'd assume card numbers will stay the same, it's only the account IBAN that's changing. It happened already with brexit with no change to card details.

muloc · 23-01-2023 2:25pm

We should be ok so 😁

RogerThis · 23-01-2023 5:41pm

I got it done this morning. The account ran out yesterday.

Got a 200 TL Netflix Gift Card from Turgame.com for €11.01. The code took a few hours to arrive, glad I did this on a previous day. The is going to last two months on the Standard plan. It was the more expensive price at TL 97.99.

For the VPN I used Windscribe as a Windows application. I set this to Istanbul. Open a browser, then incognito.

Opened netflix.com and signed in. Resigned up to the membership. Put in the CVC for my Revolut card, and it failed.

Click on other method and entered the gift card. Worked straight away, happy days.

Thanks everyone, for all the info on this thread.

ironictoaster · 25-01-2023 1:31am

I also got the email also for the Turkish Netflix price increase (131 TL per month).

Had a good read of this thread since signing up and it seems like a complete pain in the arse signing up now. People are using gift cards now? I presume adding your Revolut card via the curve app no longer works?

I can’t see myself unless something substantially cheaper region appears.

setanta1984 · 25-01-2023 12:50pm

Pakistan would now appear to be €2 a month cheaper than Turkey, for the top tier subscription. Assuming this is accurate

Has anyone attempted to move from Turkey to Pakistan yet?

bromley52 · 25-01-2023 1:18pm

Turkey with Revolut has been working well for me for the past 3 to 4 years if not longer. I'm not going to jinx it for the sake of €24 if that is the saving.

-=al=- · 25-01-2023 2:21pm

Im sure the process is the same, but probably not worth it for such a small gain. Pakistan prices could increase any time too, you would think.

Gusser09 · 25-01-2023 3:18pm

Lads is it just a revolut card I need to sign up to Turkish or Pakistan Netflix?

Getting fleeced with Irish prices.

ooter · 25-01-2023 5:48pm

Just checked Pakistan Netflix and it says prices range from 250 Rs to 1100 Rs which converts to €1 to €4.36, would that be right?

Seems much cheaper than turkey Netflix if so.

-=al=- · 25-01-2023 6:29pm

Works out about €1.50 less for the standard plan. If you’re signing up new maybe try Pakistan but I won’t rock the Netflix boat. There’s stormy seas up ahead!

TheDriver · 25-01-2023 9:21pm

I wonder will they impose password sharing stuff on Turkish subscribers? Seems like they'll only try it on countries that'll go with it

Big Daddy Kane · 26-01-2023 12:11pm

Hi, I just signed up to NETFLIX premium (Philippines) that works out around 9.25e a month.

I had a friend who let me use his phone number (lives here but uses Philippines mobile to get the once of code).

Seems to be working fine for me...

A lot more Anime choices and have all the usual US & European TV shows etc..

Thanks OP

Redriddick · 26-01-2023 9:18pm

A while back I'd to update the card on my turkey account as previous one was stolen. So went in to update it and got loads of errors that it didn't work but then the money was taken out of my new card the following month. I tried everything to update the card - various browsers, VPNs, Netflix apps etc. And kept getting errors. So not sure what ended up happening and what method ended up working. So I ain't even going to go near it now for fear of it not working!

From this thread if seems so hit and miss the past 6 months, with what works and doesn't work.

Redriddick · 27-01-2023 11:17am

Got it to work but it's time to move, 16 euro for premium is a significant increase

Lost my Revolut card and couldn't pay my monthly Netflix trl account.....it seems the chat agent method is also kaput in updating card details, even with VPN! Agent won't accept your details, instead give you a link to put in your new card details which will then ask to confirm with a Turkish mobile number 🥴 which I don't have....oh well, I guess bye bye Netflix for me

Have you tried a service like this https://www.freereceivesms.com/en/tr/ I never tried them so have no idea if they work. There are others if you search.
