Welcome to the ultimate guide of Netflix subscriptions


Netflix has [very quietly] rolled out a price hike for Turkey and told absolutely nobody about it. I can't even find a single news article about it Well actually I found one lol. Please see the statistics section below for an interesting read. Netflix Turkey (Premium) now has a 264% price increase in just over a year! Luckily, Turkey is still safe from Netflix's Password Sharing restrictions.

Anyway, you all know the drill - new prices = new guide. This guide is the best guide I'm made so far. There are now 3 complete methods to sign up. Please show some love and any comments, concerns, suggestions or feedback are welcome :)

This new guide has now been updated to include:

  • Further clarification regarding the 1-month lockout period for new sign-ups to Netflix Turkey. Please read the FAQ section for further clarification.
  • Further clarification regarding problems related to payment issues that arise a few months after signing up, including steps to take when you encounter the "update payment method" issue. Please read the FAQ section for further clarification.
  • Further clarification and instructions for those who wish to bypass Gift Cards and verify using a Turkish phone number via PingMe (Method 2).
  • Further clarification and instructions for those who wish to reload their account with Netflix Turkey Gift Cards.
  • New Netflix Turkey pricing and new statistics.
  • More screenshots to better guide you through the sign-up process.

Similar to my last post, I'm resharing this guide after previous deal post expired due to a price increase by Netflix. This is the third price hike for Turkey in the period of just over a year.

  • Turkey is definitely no longer the cheapest country for a Netflix subscription on all tiers, after they increased prices multiple times (Example: Premium plan from TL₺54.99 to TL₺77.99 to TL₺93.99 to TL₺130.99 to TL₺199.99 in a span of just over a year). That's a 264% price increase in just over a year!
    • However, obtaining a Turkey-based Netflix Gift Card is extremely easy and effortless, making it the easiest and therefore cheapest country to sign up with.
  • Pakistan is the cheapest country for all Netflix plans, however, obtaining a Pakistan-based Netflix Gift Card to sign up is almost impossible. Edypt is the next cheapest, but impossible to sign up for the same reason. If you have a bank card locally from these countries, feel free to sign up directly otherwise.
  • NEW Sept 2023!! Netflix Argentina is now ARS1,649 (A$7.40) for the Basic Plan and ARS3,999 (A$17.94) for the Premium Plan (in the last Netflix post, Argentina prices were ARS999 (A$6.10) for the Basic Plan and ARS2,399 (A$14.64) for the Premium Plan). In the post before that, Argentina prices were Argentina prices were ARS699 (A$4.27) for the Basic Plan and ARS1,899 (A$11.59) for the Premium Plan). Despite the Argentina Peso crashing a ton, these new plan prices are extremely ridiculous for these countries. That's a 136% and 111% price increase, respectively, in just under a year! To make matters worse, Netflix Argentina now has the new password sharing feature for additional costs of ARS699 per slot per month.

Instructions – Method #1 (Using Turkey Netflix Gift Cards)

Please read the following instructions carefully. Use this method if you want Netflix to charge your Australian debit/credit card each month OR you would like to use Turkey Netflix Gift Cards moving forward.

Part 1 - Ensure you have your Australian mobile number and debit/credit card saved in your account

Complete either steps (a) or (b), depending on your current situation

a. If you currently have an Australian Netflix subscription:

  1. Make sure your Australian mobile number is saved and verified in your account. See this screenshot

  2. Make sure your current or new debit/credit card is saved and verified in your account. If your payment method is PayPal, remove this immediately and replace it will a debit/credit card.

  3. Once you’ve triple checked your mobile is added and verified, simply cancel your subscription and wait until the end of the renewal period (i.e. keep watching until the sub expires. Don’t let your sub go to waste since you’ve already paid for it). Once your subscription has expired, go to Part 2 or Part 3

b. If you DO NOT have a current Australian subscription:

  1. Sign up and subscribe to any Australian Netflix plan (preferably the lowest cost basic plan - don’t worry, you’ll get your money back). Do not use PayPal to sign up, it must be a debit/credit card.

  2. Once you’ve signed up, make sure your Australian mobile number is saved and verified in your account. See this screenshot

  3. Make sure your current or new debit/credit card is saved and verified in your account.

  4. Once you’ve triple checked your mobile is added and verified, go to Netflix Live Chat and tell them you “would like a full refund since you’ve changed your mind” - they usually don’t ask why but if they do make up some random excuse like “my sibling just signed up” or “you don’t want it anymore” etc. This should be a very fast step and take you only several minutes. The account cancellation will be effective immediately and the refund will arrive in a few hours or days

  5. Once your subscription has expired (should be immediate as you’ve cancelled it for a refund through live chat), go to Part 2

Part 2 - Signing up via Netflix Turkey

Please ensure your subscription has completely ended/expired before signing up to this deal (i.e. when you can no longer watch anything and Netflix asks you to resubscribe or restart your membership)

  1. Purchase a Turkey Netflix Gift Card (any value is fine, even if it's not enough to cover the full month)

    Note: Choose a reputable seller and make an account so you have a record of the purchases if anything goes wrong. I recommend Turgame (I've bought Turkey Apple GC's from there and they have fast delivery (at night time AEST), they charge the same price as the gift card value and the payment gateway fee is very low) or g2a

  2. Once you’ve received your gift card, it’s time to redeem your gift card and sign up to Netflix Turkey at the same time. Make sure from Part 1 that you have not logged out. You must stay logged in to your Australian account. If you’ve logged out, please log back in now with VPN turned off (Logging into your Australian account with a VPN on gives an error)

  3. Activate a VPN service, turn it on and set it to Turkey (Istanbul is the largest city). There’s many free VPN’s if you don’t have a subscription to one. Here's a few great VPNs that work:

    Nord VPN: https://nordvpn.com/ (recommended, paid)
    Urban VPN: https://www.urban-vpn.com/ (recommended, free)
    Windscribe VPN: https://www.windscribe.com/ (recommended, free)
    Express VPN: https://www.expressvpn.com/
    PureVPN: https://www.purevpn.com/

    Note: Use chrome browser plugins for these VPNs where possible

    Possible Problem 1: If you use Windscribe VPN and set it to Turkey, sometimes it defaults to random serves and therefore random cities of Turkey that will give you the wrong pricing (ideally, you want Istanbul). In this case, keep turning off and on the VPN until it switches to a different server/location. Confirm the location by refreshing this page: https://whatismyipaddress.com/. If this fails, change your VPN provider.

  4. With VPN on, open a new tab and go to the following Netflix site to redeem your gift card See this screenshot:

    https://www.netflix.com/tr-en/redeem

    Possible Problem: On the plan selection page, the currency is not in Turkish Lira
    Possible Solution: The problem is due to your VPN. Double check or change your VPN if needed

    Possible Problem: When redeeming the Turkey Netflix Gift Card, it gives an error (code invalid, etc)
    Possible Solution: The problem is due to your VPN. Double check or change your VPN if needed. If after several VPNs and this issue still occurs, try to reach out to your place of purchase due to them possibly issuing you an incorrect code

  5. Follow the prompts of the sign up process. This screenshot will show the first page after applying the gift card. Click "Next" to land on this page. Choose the plan you want, then click "Next" to land on the payment page in step 6

  6. Proceed by choosing a backup payment method. Be careful with this step and look at the screenshot!

    • If you did Part 1 instructions correctly then your payment method is already saved within your account - in this case, press "skip this step" at the bottom. On the next page, click "Next" (see screenshot). Now Netflix will want to confirm your details to make sure it is correct as per (this screenshot). Double check, tick the checkbox and start your membership!

    • Otherwise, if for some reason you haven't done Part 1 correctly or your debit/credit card has expired, you will have to add a new debit/credit card (see screenshot). Beward this may prompt you for a Turkey number verification (which I guarantee you don't have otherwise you would have done Part 2) - if this happens, please complete Part 1 again (see fix below)

    Possible Problem: After entering your debit/credit card details, it asks for a Turkish mobile number
    Possible Solution: Two causes for this. Cause (1): the problem is due to your VPN - Double check or change your VPN if needed, then go back to step 4. Cause (2): This is because you've entered a new debit/credit card. In this case, please click back on your browser and avoid entering a new card by pressing "skip this step" at the bottom. If this option does not appear, please restart Part 1 and ensure you save the card you wish to use as a backup payment.

    Possible Problem: My debit/credit cards keep declining, and I'm unable to subscribe
    Possible Solution: It's likely the problem is due to your VPN. Double check or change your VPN if needed and restart the whole process. However, if VPN is not the problem, you can continue to subscribe without a backup payment method (i.e. start your subscription with just the Gift Card you bought), and then afterwards you can contact live chat and tell them you need to update your payment method by asking them to send a payment form popup (this will allow you to add a credit/debit card and save it into the account). If the agent refuses or has no idea what you’re trying to say, end the chat and start a new one.

    Note: If you bought a gift card that has a higher value than your selected plan, you’ve just used your gift card to pay for the first month, as well as partially for the second month. For the second month, Netflix will deduct the remaining of the gift card, and the remaining balance will come out of the credit/debit card you’ve inputted, and from thereon each month Netflix will keep charging your bank at those rates (be aware many banks like Commonwealth Bank have a small international transaction fee but this is only a few cents extra. Suncorp and Latitude Platinum have no international fees). Besides this, you should be saving >$100 AUD each year at least ($200 saving annually for the premium plan)


Instructions – Method #2 (Using your Australian Debit/Credit Card, Requires PingMe App for Turkey SMS Verification)

Please read the following instructions carefully. Use this method if you want Netflix to charge your Australian debit/credit card each month.

Don’t let your sub go to waste since you’ve already paid for it). Once your subscription has expired, go to Part 2 or Part 3

b. If you DO NOT have a current Australian subscription:

  1. Sign up and subscribe to any Australian Netflix plan (preferably the lowest cost basic plan - don’t worry, you’ll get your money back). Do not use PayPal to sign up, it must be a debit/credit card.

  5. Once your subscription has expired (should be immediate as you’ve cancelled it for a refund through live chat), go to Part 2 or Part 3

Part 2 - Signing up via Netflix Turkey

Please ensure your subscription has completely ended/expired before starting Part 2. It has completely ended when you can no longer watch anything and Netflix asks you to resubscribe or restart your membership

  1. With VPN off, log into your Netflix account

  2. Activate a VPN service, turn it on and set it to Turkey (Istanbul is the largest city). There’s many free VPN’s if you don’t have a subscription to one. Here's a few great VPNs that work:

    ExpressVPN: https://www.expressvpn.com/

    Note: Use chrome browser plugins for these VPNs where possible

    Possible Problem: You use Windscribe VPN and set it to Turkey, but it defaults to one of the cities of Turkey that is not Istanbul.
    Possible Solution: You want it to land in Istanbul, Turkey, so keep turning off and on the VPN until it lands in Istanbul. Confirm it’s Istanbul by refreshing this page: https://whatismyipaddress.com/

  3. Open Netflix on a new tab and proceed to Netflix to choose your plan:

    https://www.netflix.com/

  4. Proceed by adding your Australian credit/debit card as the backup payment method.

  5. Enter a Turkish phone number for the SMS verification process.

    You can use the service from "PingMe" to obtain a Turkish number for Netflix's SMS verification purposes for just a few dollars. Download the PingMe app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play store. Create an account, and recharge with "coins" (credits). 1 coin ($2.99 AUD @ App Store) is enough for 1 Netflix Turkey SMS verification, but you can also buy 5 coins ($10 AUD @ App Store) for the price of 3 in case you need it in the future. After obtaining your coins, click on the "Verification" tab on the bottom of the app and follow this screenshot: select "Netflix" for the App/Website and "Turkey (+90)" for the Country/Region. Proceed as per the PingMe app and use that to validate the Netflix SMS verification process.

  6. You're done! Enjoy your membership :)


Instructions – Method #3 (Using your OlduBil Turkish Virtual Mastercard) - I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS METHOD ANYMORE

Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard Required! If you do not have a Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard, see how to get one here in the instructions section (Part 1 and Part 2). You can use it forever, with many deals to come!

Please ensure your subscription has completely ended/expired before signing up to this deal (i.e. when you can no longer watch anything and Netflix asks you to resubscribe or restart your membership).

  1. Log in to your Australian Netflix account, or sign up for an account. Make sure you log in with VPN turned off (logging into your Australian account with a VPN gives an error).

Enter your OlduBil Virtual Mastercard details, full name, tick the T&Cs declaration, and then click "Start Membership".

  5. At this stage you're done. Don’t enter anything on this page. Netflix will ask some random questions (just to set up your account). After that, your account will be complete, and you can enjoy your subscription!


FAQ

Q: I just signed up and when I go to watch something I get the following error: "Your account can't be used in this location"
A: New sign-ups to Netflix Turkey is subject to a local restriction lockout. This lockout period will last approximately 28-30 days. During this lockout restriction, you can still watch most shows and movies, but you must use a Turkey VPN to do so (otherwise an error will pop up preventing you from watching anything). You can turn off the VPN after the show/movie has loaded for faster connection. This minor hassle for a month is well worth the savings in the long term.

Error code O7111-5095: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/125595

Q: I just got a "Payment Declined - Update Payment Method" email from Netflix. What do I do?
A: This issue is being reported by many people who have recently signed up to Netflix Turkey. There are two ways to get around this issue:

  1. You can contact Netflix Live Chat and enquire about the "Payment Declined" issue. Make sure you chat with your Turkey VPN activated. If they ask, say you're in Turkey for a holiday, or came up with another excuse. Tell them that your payment has declined and you'd like to add a new credit/debit card. They should (if not, request them to) be able to send a payment form popup directly on the chat so you can add your new payment details. If the agent refuses or has no idea what you’re trying to say, end the chat and start a new one. Once the payment is accepted, the "Payment Declined" issue shouldn't occur ever again.

  2. Log into your Netflix account and update your payment method (Turkey phone number required). When you follow the prompts to update your payment method, Netflix will require a Turkish number. You can use the PingMe service to obtain a Turkey phone number for the purposes of this SMS verification. It will cost you a few dollars to buy credits for the purpose of receiving this SMS. Download the PingMe app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play store. Create an account, and recharge with "coins" (credits). 1 coin ($2.99 AUD @ App Store) is enough for 1 Netflix Turkey SMS verification, but you can also buy 5 coins ($10 AUD @ App Store) for the price of 3 in case you need it in the future. After obtaining your coins, click on the "Verification" tab on the bottom of the app and follow this screenshot: select "Netflix" for the App/Website and "Turkey (+90)" for the Country/Region. Proceed as per the PingMe app and use that to validate the Netflix SMS verification process.

Q: My current card expired. How do I update to a new debit/credit card?
A: See the FAQ above.

Q: How do I add Netflix Turkey Gift Cards to my Netflix account?
A: Log in and go to account settings. Click on Redeem gift card or promo code and redeem your Gift Cards there. You should be able to do this without a VPN. If it doesn't work, try with a VPN.

Q: I get an error when redeeming gift cards?
A: This is a VPN problem. Most likely the VPN server has been flagged. Double check or change your VPN if needed. In that rare 1% chance it's not a VPN problem, you may have a troubled gift card.

Q: Will I need to turn VPN on everytime I watch Netflix?
A: No! You no longer need to have VPN on every time you watch a show or movie. VPN is only required for sign up. After sign up, use Netflix without a VPN and you will have access to the Australian Netflix library.

Q: I want to watch a show/move that is only available from another region or country. Can I do this?
A: If you want to watch a show or movie that is region locked to another country, you can do so by setting your VPN on your phone, laptop or PC to that particular country to watch it. Yes, you will need a VPN service for this, and most VPN providers should work.

Q: I got charged a different rate compared to the prices on this post. What happened?
A: Due to foreign exchange rates constantly fluctuating, prices will differ by several cents each month

Q: I have an existing Netflix subscription, can I use the same email?
A: Definitely!

Q: My bank blocked my payment, what do I do?
A: Some banks block 1st attempt and then text to confirm it's you. Once you reply, 2nd attempt may work. If after several attempts it does not work, just go through the Gift Card method and avoid the pain

Q: Is signing up to Netflix Turkey going to affect my Netflix library/catalogue?
A: After setting up this sub, you may or may not notice the Netflix catalogue may be weird with brand new shows, etc… It might not even change anything, but if it does change, your Netflix catalogue will adjust to what you’re watching and soon it will look like nothing ever happened

Q: GST/VAT and Tax related questions?
A: See here. Don't worry, there really isn't any tax you need to worry about.

  • Can you use Wise to pay for Pakistan gift card? Surely somebody would had tried this already?

    • Short answer: no

      • If i know someone in Pakistan and they can create an account for me using their mobile for verification and their credit card for payment, am i able to then change the credit card information to my aussi card and going forward just have that as the direct debit?

  • Great report OP. 👏👏👏
    However do you have any reports about YouTube Premium as well?

    (Using your OlduBil Turkish Virtual Mastercard) - I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS METHOD ANYMORE

    Why don't you recommend OlduBil anymore?

    • I'd like to know this too

      I tried a couple months ago and it was cancelled/refunded automatically by Netflix
      + my Oldubil hasn't credited the refund yet

    • I haven’t followed up with it in a long time and last I saw the comments section it was a nightmare. I got busier and just ignored it for a while.

      I hope the transfer from Wise/Revolut to OlduBil still works 😇

      • Transfering from Wise to OlduBil still works for both me and my buddy (he made a transaction 2 weeks ago). Revolut is no-go.

      • I did Revolut to FUPS this week ( international Transfer) and it worked fine.

        I have switched to Revolut > FUPS ( yes i did have to buy a scetchy CC from https://plati.market/ and pay for a one off sms verification for FUPS) > Oldubil. However at least you avoud the 9% fee from Oldubil this way as there is no fee from FUPS to Oldubil + its instant.

      • Is there any reason I can't just top up OldBil with and AU debit Mastercard?

        • In theory it should work

      • Hi. I've tried UrbanVPN, ExpressVPN and Surfshark but all 3 don't change the currency. Youtube still ask me to pay in AUD. You know what wrong I do?

    Sail on the high seas.. $0/month

  • Appreciate the effort as always - keep these VPN required deals coming!

    Getting to a $ amount that is making me reconsider if I want it still. I already use Real Debrid with my fav "apps" but enjoyed the convenience of just turning on tv and away I go.

    My last charge on Aug 22 was for $7.62 (130.99 TRY)

    • +1

      Similar. My premium increased on 18/07/23 from 93.99TL to 130.99TL. Touch wood it doesn’t now increase to 199.99TL after only 2 months since last increase. It's still good value regardless if costs are shared.

  • +1

    I will be moving to Syncler + RealDebird soon won’t have to worry about any Netflix, Apple, Prime, Stan, Disney and many more

    • 🙈

    • More info

      • Google troypoint syncler

        • Thanks!

    • Even better Stremio + Torrentio + Real Debrid

      • Yes you could do that too but for my family I use Syncler it’s easy for them to use and I got it setup for all of them 😉

        • I find Stremio very easy to set up. I have it on my firestick. So now I just watch all those great shows on TV directly

      • How does this work?

  • +7

    Its $hit services like this that pushes people into piracy again… What a pity.

    • +1

      Its $hit services like this that continue pushinges people into piracy again

      FTFY

      • +1

        I think both are valid statements. I personally know folks who used to pirate, stopped it because streaming services became affordable and worthy and in recent times have started to sail the high seas again because of the insane costs, segmentation and requiring the premium tier just so you can playback 4k/uhd quality

        • +1

          4K download is always going to be better than a 4K stream… so it's both options for me! 😊

  • Looking for decent IPTV.. just eliminate all these subscriptions…

    • Nah they all come from the same source I would not bother

  • I literally just signed up using the previous guide last week, I had a few minor hiccups & managed to work through it in the end.
    But does that mean I’ll get stung immediately by this price increase?
    *Note: 1st subscription payment hasn’t been deducted from my account yet.
    …great job on the guide($)!

  • Just got charged A$7.67 (28 degrees) a few days ago for premium via Turkey.

  • Thanks - just added another 200TL from G2A seller Potionkeys. GC key was provided immediately and cost AU$13.03

  • Basic plan in Australia is 6.99 go through all this trouble to save $1.20 ?? Am I missing something here ?

    • +1

      The basic Aus plan is ad supported. The turkey one isn't. I think.

    • $6.99 is ad supported. The next one is $10.99 without ads which is comparable to the cheapest in this deal. It's almost half the price.

    • +1

      Still very much worth it for the standard and premium ($17 and $22). The $7 basic with ads is terrible lol. The basic without ads ($10) is ok I guess but 720p is too low these days

    Streaming services need to realise the only reason I’m paying them anything is because they’re slightly more convenient than sailing the high seas. These hikes are getting ridiculous now, time to spin up my Plex server again

    I had payment declined issue after a couple of months. I ended up going to TURGAME and buying two months of gift cards and topping up the account that way. There is a service fee which makes it a bit more expensive than auto credit card payments, but it worked without having to contact their support to allow entry of a new credit card.

    • but it worked without having to contact their support to allow entry of a new credit card.

      I've had Netflix Turkey since Dec 2020 and have updated my cards a few times via their support. No issues or awkward questions

  • Anyone have an issue with verifying their mobile number? It says text sent but I never receive it (even after resending)

    I bought a Sony A80K last year for the good upscaler, looks like the combination saves me ~$17/month for basic turkey vs Oz premium

    • +1

      Also have an A80K and agree wholeheartedly re the upscaling. It always amazes me how little stock people put into that considering how much sub 4k content they watch

    Thank you OP & others maintaining this information for years. If Netflix continues this way, might soon have to go back to kodi.

    Thanks again OP

  • I’ve had Turkeyflix for years without issue! Love it

    Hi @I Smell Pennies thanks for all your posts. This is quite complex for me as I’m short on time doing a day job and setting up my own Business. Is there a way I can pay someone to help me set up Netflix, Spotify, Disney plus, and YouTube in turkey?

    • How much are you willing to pay?

    • No worries. Yes please PM me :) @usertonyn

  • +1

    None of the AU bank cards work for direct debit, i have tried macquarie, cba, st george all get declined and chat tell us you need to use local country payment method. So i m only using a gift card frm turkey each month.

  • My last one cost $7.75 (130 turkeys)

    • same, the price increase applies to new signups and will pass on to existing in a matter of time

      • Oh, well still a pretty good deal I guess.

        • yeah can't complain really have a few others sharing it & saved a good bit over the last few years. Currently due to the crackdown on password sharing here have a few others now sharing it FOC

          • @Irishness: Turkey doesnt seem affected yet.
            Yeah works out well, have a few family members access and swapped one for Stan, someone else throws us $20 now and then.

    I've been using Turkey account for almost a year, and it's been working fine.

    I'm traveling for a holiday to Indonesia but now I cannot access the account (error: Your account can't be used in this location), it's rather annoying to be presented with this and has to activate my AU VPN to bypass this

    • What about now may i ask?

      • Unfortunately, I’m back in AU, thus unable to test this again

    Netflix isn't even that good anymore. You can never find what you want and they have the same content on there from 2 years ago. Just swapping out the thumbnail to make it look new.

    • +2

      with the writers & actors strike ongoing I think new content is going to be a lot less soon enough, probably a lot more old stuff & foreign content

    • I find that my Plex, with Sonarr & Radarr has a greater library.

      Main cost is Hard Drives.

  • Would love to know the netflix strategy around Turkey, they're obvious very aware that there are tens of thousands of people around the world using turkey netflix, the currency keeps depreciating but I think the latest increase would be in consideration of both the currency falling and extracting more from those non Turkey users. Given you can still password share with Turkey I wonder if netflix crack down on this but potentially lose subscribers or given the price hike just leave as is while earning more than they were from the situation. There will always be those of us looking for a cheaper solution & if it's not Turkey it'll be something else

    Thanks ISP for the new guide

    Hi Pennies, big thanks for the guide and contribution to the OzB community, just wondering for those who have already signed up with Oldubil TRY Mastercard, is it still possible to send $$ to the card from WISE? sounds like this method is ever changing, big thanks in advance

    • Hi there. Thanks for your support! I believe it is still possible according to comments.

  • I should check how Argentina still rates.

    $7.08AUD for standard
