While the retirement January raise is 37.57 percent, there is an additional increase in addition to this figure. The minimum pension will also increase. Basic salaries will be increased. Before the comprehensive retirement increase, private banks updated their retirement promotion amounts. Bank promotion amounts increased up to 15 thousand TL. Which banks gave the highest retirement promotions? Here are the details…
PENSION PAY INCREASE WET THE APPETITE OF BANKS
With the statement of TUIK, the 6-month inflation rate was recorded as 37.57 percent. While this figure is the SSK and Bağ-Kur pension increase, excluding the welfare share, now all eyes will be on the lowest pension increase applied as 7500 TL and the additional additional increase.
15 THOUSAND TL ADDITIONAL INCOME OPPORTUNITY FOR RETIRED PEOPLE
In addition, retiree promotion campaigns have been renewed to provide raises for retirees. The promotional amounts paid to retirees in exchange for receiving their salaries from that bank increased up to 15,000 TL. Banks are updating one by one. In the new period, changes are also expected in the promotion, which was previously determined as three separate numbers. Promotion limits were determined according to salaries as follows:
3,000 TL for those whose pension is up to 3,500 TL
3,500 TL for those whose income is between 3,500-7,500 lira (excluding 7,500 lira).
4,500 TL for those whose income is between 7,500-10,000 lira (excluding 10,000 lira).
5,000 TL for those with 10,000 lira or more
THE LIMIT FOR BANK PROMOTION WILL ALSO INCREASE
The minimum pension, set at 7500 TL, will increase again with the Parliament’s regulation. Therefore, retiree promotion limits will remain well below this figure. For this reason, retiree promotion limits are expected to be increased in the new period.
PRIVATE BANKS UPDATE THEIR PENSION PROMOTIONS
Regardless of the pension promotion limits, banks can increase the number by organizing their own campaigns above these figures. Banks opened their pockets before both the minimum pension and the January increase. Bank promotions reached 15 thousand TL. Other private banks also started to update their campaigns step by step.
When making agreements for pension promotions, banks want to provide some of their products and services in return.
WHICH PENSIONERS RECEIVE PROMOTIONS?
Anyone with a pension is entitled to receive a promotion by choosing a bank. All retirees, regardless of old or new, have the right.
IS THERE ANY CONDITIONS FOR GETTING THE MONEY?
It is enough for the retiree to make a commitment to the bank of his choice, ‘I will receive my salary from you for 3 years’. There are no conditions such as invoices or credit accounts. However, banks can offer high promotions for such products.
ANYONE CAN CHANGE THEIR BANK BEFORE THE PERIOD EXPIRES
Retirees who have completed 3 years are now entitled to receive new promotions. At this point, you can contact your current bank and get your promotion based on the new figure. However, anyone who wishes can change their bank. Here, the payment for the remaining period can be refunded, the promotional agreement can be canceled and the bank that pays higher money can be preferred.
Retirees whose term has expired can choose the bank of their choice and receive their second promotion from there. However, the bank is changed before the period expires. If you have not used the credit, you can return the promotion for the remaining period and leave. You exercise your right of withdrawal here. And you can use this right as many times as you want.
I WANTED TO CHANGE BANK BUT IT WAS NOT ACCEPTED. WHY COULD IT BE?
If you cannot change banks even after your 3-year period has expired, it means that you have used a loan from the previous bank. You cannot change banks until this loan ends. However, you can get promotions again.
MY BANK INCREASED THE PROMOTION AMOUNT, BUT MY THREE YEARS ARE NOT UP YET, WHAT CAN I DO?
Here you can cancel the first promotion you received by exercising the consumer’s right of withdrawal. You can start the three-year period again from the new promotion by refunding the money for the remaining period.
HOW TO CHANGE THE BANK FROM WHICH THE SALARY IS RECEIVED?
It is enough to apply to any branch of the bank where the salary is requested to be deposited. Apart from this, the bank and its branch can be easily selected from e-Government. There is no need to take any extra action.
WHAT SHOULD A NEWLY RETIRED PERSON DO?
A newly retired person will receive his promotion by making a contract with the bank from which he received his first salary or with another bank. After that, its 3-year period will begin.
WHAT SHOULD WE CONSIDER WHEN SELECTING A BANK?
When choosing a bank, prioritize banks whose practices you know, whose branches you can easily access, and which have ample ATM facilities. Apart from this, you can also look at the promotional campaigns of banks that suit you best. However, when making your choice, you should carefully examine the offers presented to you.
It is important for retirees to make their decision by reading the conditions of the campaigns in detail. Although some high figures are said with word games, there are many conditions to get this.
