On October 3, 2024, an annual membership fee of ₺678.50 was charged to my credit card ending in 3011. I am requesting the cancellation and refund of this fee by the relevant legal provisions, without any additional conditions. Under Article 31, Paragraph 3 of the Consumer Law dated May 28, 2014, card-issuing institutions are obligated to offer a type of credit card that does not charge an annual membership fee or similar fees to consumers. According to Article 6 of the Law on the Protection of Consumers No. 4077, as amended by Law No. 4822, the membership fee your bank charges is considered an unfair condition, as it does not correspond to any specific service, was pre-drafted, and cannot be negotiated due to its inclusion in a standard contract. In line with the decision of the 13th Civil Chamber, case number 2011/4736 and decision number 2011/11579, as well as Article 125 of the Code of Obligations and General Assembly decision 2010/1-93-88, it has been definitively ruled that retroactive card fees must also be refunded. Based on current legal regulations, I request the cancellation and refund of the annual card membership fees charged. Otherwise, I hereby declare that I will initiate legal proceedings, pursue all legal remedies, and file a complaint with the Consumer Arbitration Committee. Additionally, I intend to submit a written request to cancel my BBVA Garanti Bonus credit card.
