I sent money to an IBAN. What now?

Author · Av. Ayşenur Konar, Avukat

The first step after money has gone to an IBAN is to keep the date, the time and the reference on the slip. That does not mean the money returns. The recipient name and the description line stay with the slip. Use the bank’s own application or the number printed on the card. This page publishes no bank hotline, and a new transfer is not a way to correct the first one.

The criminal notice, at a police unit or the public prosecutor, is a second door. The police site is the institution’s door, not a completed complaint. An open file can be followed on the UYAP citizen portal, which is not itself every new complaint. Getting the money back is discussed on the separate repayment article. The service frame is the fraud practice page.

Do not send more money, do not trust a promise that the money will certainly return, and do not type a password here. The evidence check only asks whether you have the record. The timeline stays in the browser and disappears when the page closes. Last review: 13 November 2026. Av. Ayşenur Konar.

The mark is made in the evidence check. The service frame is the fraud page.

Frequently asked questions

Does this page promise that the money returns?

No. A criminal notice and a route aimed at the money are different. No refund, acquittal or conviction is promised.

Should I type the reference, the message or a file number here?

No. Keep those on the original record. This article and the tools ask whether the record exists, not for its value.
