6 months interest free is fine, but the annual fee is a total scam and feels as such. A fee should occur upfront or if considered 'annual' should occur AFTER a year if the balance hasnt been paid back. SCAM.

Avoid at all costs

published

The interest free for six months is great, but don't let this card fool you. If you reduce your credit limit, you can't increase for 12 months . You can't balance transfer, there is a $100 annual fee, and the international fees are insane. You are better off going with a bank or other institution where the T&Cs are upfront and you are in control of your own limit. They also give incorrect advice through the customer service portal. 5 years with this card and received no help from customer service.

The ease of use and amazing amount of retail outlets that provide interest free options is awesome and convenient - good job!!! It certainly assisted me in helping my daughter furnish her apartment that she recently bought. It means that I was not put under financial stress to cash flow her from my pocket, thus draining my own resources.

Thanks Amart; love my furniture.

published

Got furniture from Amart & got Gem Visa as the credit card company, my husband has used this company before & never had any issues. Keeping it for sure after the repayments are made as we both love the company, they answer quick &, although we just received it, we plan to use it again once some repayments go down.

Team member was bubbly and engaging .. Helped with my queries no hassles .The only thing I had troubles with, was my birthday was entered incorrectly when I applied for my card, which caused that I couldn’t activate my card . However the gentleman on the chat was very helpful as well .Haven’t used my card over seas .

The application process was easy and fast. You then can use your account number for purchases immediately even before your card actually arrives. Makes shopping and life much easier. Not to mention the interest free period on purchase. Winning

Important info

published

When I originally signed up there was no mention by staff that they is a $99 annual fee every year whilst you are under contract.
I do feel this needed to be mentioned regardless whether I chose to purchase items at the point of sale. This was not the case!
Whilst this had occurred I do feel the staff did their upmost to meet my needs and their customer service are great.
I do hope in future they do mention this as I think it is vital information that needs to be considered irrespective of anyone’s circumstance

Best finance around!

published

I have previously purchased a $5000 imac fully customied with latitude. Repayments were really affordable with interest free! Paid it off way before end date.

This time, i bought a fully installed split system aircon including install. Was really easy to organise finance in store at 8.30pm on a thursday night and got approval there and then.

Its been about 3 months and again paid if off way earlier then required.

No early payout fees makes this really attractive and will keep my card active for future purchases!
