Netflix Turkish Gift Cards - Big Increase in 'Service Fee'?

I every few months buy netflix turkish gift cards to keep my parents netflix account ticking over, but today when I went to grab one, seems the 'usual' places like g2a and turgame now have some rather sizeable % service fees (e.g turgame is like a 25% "service fee" ). The last time I bought one back in March this wasnt the case.

Are all the sources for these gift cards now adding on their own sizeable addition (along with the credit card fees) or are there any more friendly options?

    no more netflix turkey gift cards for anyone else that hadnt noticed :/

  • times must be really tough to go down that road lol

  • Sorry to hear your Turkey Netflix is dead. I tried buying a Steam key off one of those same sites and the small saving was eaten up by the 23% service fee plus more. Ridiculous.

    That's crap…. Do I buy up now and eat the service fee so I don't have the hassle of changing for a while longer until something better comes along?

    Netflix is really turning into a sh!thole of a company. Overpriced, reduced content. Its getting to the point we might part ways.

    This is estimated to get you through 15 August 2026 at your current plan price.

    YOLO tossed another 1800 try onto the account. That'll do, deal with it next year.

    • According to the comments below people's Turkey accounts are getting terminated. I hope yours stays safe until 2026.

      • Oh no…. That isn't good to hear!

        Oh well, if it gets cancelled and I'm paid up for a year, I won't be returning to Netflix. Back to torrents.

        Seems silly to cancel accounts, they have cut off the gift card supply, so only a matter of time before the accounts self expire anyhow. I wonder if those people had been account sharing across multi house holds? I stopped doing that a year or so ago as that seems to be a big trigger for netflix to cancel you.

      yeah keeping OP's Netflix acc in my prayers. 🙄

  • Dont bother now.. Netflix cancelled my account overnight. I still have until August. So… buyer beware

  • Are there any other countries to get cheap Netflix? Nigeria? Egypt? Pakistan…. Do any of those VPN tricks still work? Or do we have to finally go legit aussie netflix

    Mine just got cancelled today even though my Turkish credits paid ahead to mid August … seemingly don't think I'm in Turkey. Booo

    Mine too cancelled overnight and I had just (a day earlier) topped up the account until next year.

    Funnily (or not), now that it's asking me to sign up again, it says I can use gift cards as payment. I wonder what'll happen if I re-purchase some Turkey gift cards and add… Just a thought and not going to risk it.

    I'd happily torrent my viewing material, but Netflix is convenient for what the kids watch and how they watch.

  • Same here.. just joined the $7.99 ad plan. Not too bad tbh
