As the purchasing power of the Turkish Lira declines due to high inflation and the high cost of living, citizens struggling to make ends meet have found a solution in relying on credit cards.
Journalist Barış Yarkadaş has brought a striking claim regarding credit card usage to the agenda. Yarkadaş alleged that the credit card of a cardholder who makes the "minimum payment" for 3 consecutive months will be closed for use.
Stating, "A new practice for credit cards distributed in an uncontrolled and unregulated manner...", Yarkadaş used the following expressions in his post: "The card of a cardholder who makes the 'minimum payment' for 3 consecutive months is being closed for use.

This is a summary of the situation the AK Party has brought the country to..."
