Turkish character encoding

Firstly - I am fairly new to MySQL and have never had to use turkish characters before.
THIS IS A DUPLICATE TOPIC I POSTED ON THE TURKISH SECTION - BUT MAYBE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME HERE

I am having problems using LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE to load a .csv file of all the user data into my users table. I have tried many different character encoding options on the table (latin5-turkish, utf8-turkish, utf8-bin) and when running the LOAD DATA command I have tried defining the CHARACTER SET = utf8... I have experienced the turkish characters being displayed as question marks, and at this moment my table is set to utf8-turkish-ci and the names are being cut in half whenever a turkish character appears (eg - AYBÜKE is displaying as AYB)

If I manually insert data through phpmyadmin the characters will display properly (although I can't currently display them properly on the webpage - still getting question marks despite trying to add a meta content type to the header)

Can anyone help me with this problem? Most importantly for now is loading the data. If possible a complete description of what I need to do to load data, store data and display data using turkish character sets.
