Vakıfbank Seized My Entire Salary Without Following Legal Procedures

VakıfBank seized my entire salary the moment it was deposited into my salary account due to my outstanding debt. However, it is clearly a salary account, and the deposited amount is my salary. Instead of following legal procedures to garnish wages while leaving enough for living expenses and essential payments, they unlawfully took my entire salary just because I receive it through their bank. I have no words for such an unjust action. I demand the full return of my salary and expect them to follow proper legal procedures for debt collection. Otherwise, I will file a complaint with the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency and all relevant authorities. I am in shock because I have been left without any money. How am I supposed to survive in this situation? People face such hardships, fall into financial despair, and are pushed toward suicide because of this.

What is the meaning of suddenly seizing my salary? I receive my salary from you, what is this? How far does a state bank expect to get by doing illegal things? I waited 20 minutes to connect to a customer representative and I'm still waiting, shame on you. You have seized my salary twice now.

I finally got through to the customer representative, and they think they have the right to do this. There is no solution. Are these people supposed to eat stone roots? Then people end up committing suicide. Just give me my one month's earnings, what are we supposed to feed our family?

I Lost My Entire Salary to VakıfBank Without Consent

Arif
June 15, 2025 2:04 AM40

"Due to VakıfBank collecting the entirety of my salary deposited into my bank under the name of partial delay payment, and collecting an amount exceeding the legally determined 1/4 proportion, which is unacceptable and even surpasses the amount necessary for my right to live and subsist, I have been left aggrieved and embarrassed both at my workplace and in front of my family, and my dignity has also been damaged. It is a common situation that contracts, prepared over many lengthy pages and with important clauses written in small print and presented digitally, are signed under pressure, with the signatory feeling compelled to sign quickly to complete the process. The inclusion of unfavorable contract clauses hidden among pages solely for this reason is unlawful. The automatic payment order and the collection of my entire salary on the digital contract, presented over many pages without obtaining a written statement that I have personally read and accepted it, is completely illegal. This situation was acknowledged by the bank upon my complaint, and due to an automatic payment order that I was not even aware of and was involuntarily issued on my behalf, the bank collected my entire salary in violation of the 1/4 proportion stipulated by law for the right to live. I request the correction of this situation and the return of my full salary, which was deducted from my account due to the automatic payment order that was opened without my consent and later canceled by the bank upon my complaint. If the refund is not made, I request to be informed of the reason why it cannot be processed, and I state that I will pursue this process legally and by all lawful means."
