Credit Card 101

  • Citibank Rewards and Citibank Shell, how much usually approved limit sa dalawang yan? Napaapprove ako nung nag apply ako rekta sa Citibank head office. Hehe. Sabi ko rewards lang kasi free for life ang annual fee. Pinaapprove pati Citibank Shell.

    imagine this, 6 digits ako sa ibang banks low utilization pero 20k lang limit ko sa citi

    may agents kasi sa Mega at nakita ko yung mga luggage, madali lang naman yung spend requirement nila..
  • Naghahanap din ako ng credit card promos na may magandang freebies and offers gaya nyan spinner luggage! Sayang di na ako pwede sa citibanks fitbits. :D

    usually merong holding period yung mga ganyang promo, na kesyo need mo i maintain yung card ng 2 years or else bayad ka ng price nung freebies nila

    meron ako nakuha sa Unionbank Getgo na free flight pero 2 years lock in or else charge ng P15k kasi short haul lang pinili ko

    waived ang 1st yr.. ang 2nd yr mo ay after 23months pa... libreng libre ka magpa cancel.

  • advance ang AMF, so yung waived first year eh from day 1 to day 365 kaya after a year eh dun na lalabas yung AMF for the 2nd year.

  • ^ yup, end ng first year mo, start ng 2nd year mo may amf agad
  • that's why you're going to cancel it by month 19 onwards
    :D

    in my exp with hsbc, hindi sila sa start of year naniningil... 3 cards ko sa kanila now.. 2010 yung 1st kung di ako nagkakamali... lahat laging waived. never pa ako nagbayad ng AF kahit anong card/bank.
  • ^for citibank, sa first 365 days ng card, walang AMF na mababanggit, yun yung free (start date is January 2015, free for the year 2015). on my experience with citibank cashback, after 1 year dun meron nang AMF (January 2016 bill) that is applicable for 2016.
  • ^
    I also have Citibank cashback (favorite card).. di ko matandaan kelan sila naningil.. though hindi pa kasi ako nagbayad ng AF sa kanila... papasok sa bill ko pero auto reversed naman.
  • ^Auto reverse, meaning hindi ka nagre-request ng waive?
  • ^
    hindi na... minsan late yung autoreversal.. meaning yung auto reversal sa next billing na papasok.

    tatawag ako.. pero sasabihin irereverse na lang. wala na yung takutan / negotiation portion hehe..
  • auto yata pag naabot mo yung certain amount of transaction per yr.
  • that's why you're going to cancel it by month 19 onwards
    :D

    Sisingilin ka na by 13th month. You cannot cut it by then else you'll be charge the P5,700 cancellation fee. Otherwise, you pay the amf. I wonder how much the amf fee is. Sumatotal parang binili mo rin ang luggage kung di mo mapawaive.
  • tatawag ako.. pero sasabihin irereverse na lang. wala na yung takutan / negotiation portion hehe..

    HIndi autoreverse yan. Ganyan naman karaniwan, at least my experience, walang takutan lol. Paglabas ng soa with amf: call, simple request, after a few seconds, ok na waived na. Everything takes less than two minutes.

    merong time na autoreversed yung akin... magkasama na sa iisang billing statement yung AF at reversal.

  • merong time na autoreversed yung akin... magkasama na sa iisang billing statement yung AF at reversal.

    Ah autoreverse nga. May promo nung nag sign up ka? Sa CITI kasi yung free amf for life nila may mga strings attached. Di gaya ng BPI ko walang spend requirements. Di na talaga lumalabas sa SOA yung amf, i.e. no amf bill.
  • ^
    nung nag sign ako ang promo lang nun ay rudy project luggage. walang nakalagay na auto reversal..
    pero tingin ko sa spending ito... may year kasi na need ko pa itawag pero wala naman negotiation, request lang... may year naman na auto reversed na sya...

    pag napatawag ulit ako kay citi itatanong ko kung dahil nga sa spending at magkano dapat.
  • ^ yung sa kin free for life. never ako nacharge ng annual fee mga 5 yrs na siguro sa kin to. Wala rin ako minimum na kailangan i reach. di ko to main card eh bihira ko lang gamitin. usually sa lazada ko lang ginagamit dahil lagi sila may promo don at minsan pang gas. siguro 6 of 12 months zero ang balance ko. Pretty sure i'm not reaching any minimum.
  • yep.. sarap nung nauso yang free for life na card hehe... atleast no need to call diba... ilang minutes din yun sa isang taon hehe..

    dati si M card lang ang ganyan... now halos lahat ng bank may ganyang promo na.


    good for us hehe
  • nagavail ako just now 60k citi call for cash, meron bang promo pwede ko iavail? nakalimutan ko magtanong kun meron.
  • Magkano po interest binigay sayo sa citi call for cash ser?
  • ^ sa Citibank, may Sodexo GC -- 60K loan pasok sa PHP 500 Sodexo Mobile Pass.
