SGK payments
« on: October 12, 2012, 09:19:30 AM »
I have just been down to Zirat bank to make our first SGK payment, it was easy! you do not have to get a ticket and queue up for hours, you just go to the payment machine by the door, go through the instructions(in turkish) tap in your payment kimlik no. and pay the cash in for which you get a receipt  :) it does not take cards.

The guard will help you if your stuck  ;)

That's useful - having listened to lots of stories about queuing for ages!

Does anyone know what happens if you "miss" a couple of payments because you go back to the UK?

Do you just pay the full amount on your return or are you fined?

Or you can pay at Halk or Vakif banks as they are also government banks.

Not a problem Ian. I suspect most people will make late payments for one reason or another. Mostly because "computer says no" system down, I think we got fined about 2 LIra... it wont be aproblem to miss a couple of payments. We have before now...

Saw a sign in the window of Türkiye Finans Bank today. Saying that Bağ-kur payments can be made there. I do not know if this includes SSK.
