To Giant-citibank Credit Cardholdders

How does Giant Citibank rebate work ?
Do they credit the rebate in the same billing cycle or next billing cycle ?
*
..if i'm not mistaken, the rebate wont be credited but you would receive Giant vouchers instead and only after you accumulated more than RM20 rebate... except for special promotion like the last "Giant March Nation wide rebates", Citibank credited cash to my wife account...

This comes up quite often in this thread as most people do not understand how credit card interest is charged. The bank charged you correctly, refer to the first paragraph regarding interest charges in the link below:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_card#Interest_charges

The BNM rules did not change in a way which applied to you in your described scenario. If you had paid the extra amount before the next statement date, you will continue to enjoy the 20 days interest-free period in the next cycle. Only if the extra had accumulated to the next billing cycle will you lose your 20 days interest-free period.

The above assumes that you did not previously have a carry forward balance in the previous cycle and so were enjoying the 20 days interest-free period, of course.

..previously it's not like this, they just changed it last year...

cant we consumer have any say before they change the rule that definitely not to our advantage; did they announce it before hand and invite comment from the public or consumer groups.. i suppose no, right?

The 100k allocation has been finished.
*
..pls remember the RM100K is per month, so next month make sure you swipe early (petrol in denomination of RM50 and Hypermarket in RM100)

if i'm not mistaken 1st of July is Wednesday.. go to a Hypermarket, swipe RM500.. and be done with.. move to PB card for next purchases (8X, RM625 equals to RM50 rebates, the max)...

What sort of "goodness" are you looking for ? Card main feature is cash rebate (between 2-5%), up to RM600 p.a.
*
..if you manage to get RM600 rebates with RM15,000 spending, it' quite good coz it's 4%

anyway i dont have the card, dont know whether to apply or not...


seems like it's the best long term card for the time being, in term of rebates lah at least...
