Card Review |
|
| With a well-designed credit card, you can not only save a good amount of money but you might also reap other significant benefits as well. The American Express Platinum Cashback Credit Card, for instance, provides both of these to financial customers in the United Kingdom. First of all, you can get a cashback bonus of up to 5% when you make purchases of £100 or more, for a limited time. Although this rate is temporary, this card still possesses a simple, functional rate of 1.25% on all purchases after the introductory period ends. This means that every little thing you do could pay out much more in the long run. You might also appreciate that there is no annual fee. |

| No cashback is payable in any month in which the minimum payment is not received by the due date. The minimum amount you need to pay us each month will be 10% of the total amount owing or £50, whichever is more. No cashback is payable on Cash Withdrawals, Interest, Fees, Balance Transfers, amounts subsequently re-credited to your account due to refunds, or expenditure in any one month exceeding the amount of your Credit Limit. No cashback is payable if you end the agreement before the relevant Card Anniversary Date or if, in the 12 months preceding your Card Anniversary Date, the aggregate amount of all transactions (other than cash advances and balance transfers) totals less than £3,000. Subject to the above a cashback of 5% will be payable to you by us on all transactions made in the first 3 months up to £100 and applied at the same time as any annual cashback. An annual cashback on the aggregate amount of all transactions (other than the exclusions stated above and any introductory offer) will be payable to you by us and calculated at the following rates, 0.5% for aggregate amounts up to £3,500; and 1% for aggregate amounts from £3,501 to £7,500; and 1.25% for aggregate amounts in excess of £7,501. | |
