Fees you can't avoid:
-

-
Foreign Currency Exchange Fee - Visa
A fee to keep in mind
It's a cost of 3.3% of the transaction amount.When you use your card overseas, you're charged a foreign currency exchange fee on all retail purchases and cash transactions that are converted into Australian dollars.
For your convenience when you receive your statement, you'll see overseas transactions converted to the Australian dollar value, including the fees as one single transaction.
Fees you can avoid:
-
Dishonour Fee - $15
Make sure there's enough funds, so you're not hit with a dishonour fee
Keep an eye on your accounts before scheduled automatic payments or cheques are drawn.Otherwise you'll be charged a $15 dishonour fee each time a cheque or Direct Debit payment is dishonoured. The fee will be debited to your account at the time, and interest will be charged on any outstanding amounts.
-
Late Payment Fee - $10 if your Payment Due isn't paid by the Payment Due Date and $10 every 7 days thereafter until the Payment Due is made.
An easy one to avoid by ensuring that you pay your minimum monthly payment on or before the due date
Any time your minimum payment due is not received by the due date, you'll be charged a late fee of $10 per week until payment is received.To make things easy to manage there are lots of ways to pay your card account including BPAY®, telephone or online banking, cheque or by setting up Direct Debit payments.
One way of ensuring your monthly payment arrives on time is to automatically pay your monthly credit card bill from your nominated bank account. For more information download the form.
-
Overlimit Fee - $40 (if applicable)
Keep track of your spending and your account balance, to avoid an overlimit fee.
If your account balance ever exceeds your credit limit, you'll be charged an overlimit fee of $40 (if applicable) per statement period. To find out your current balance log in to Virgin Money Online.
You can also call in and ask us to not process the transactions which could take you over your credit limit and result in an over limit fee being charged. Please note that if you ask us to reject transactions that take you over your credit limit, there are a few exceptions that we can't reject such as: transactions that are processed manually (for example where a merchant does not use an electronic device) or for some recurring instructions set up on your Account. With these transactions, you will still be liable for the full transaction amount and associated interest charges. -
Over-the-Counter Transaction Fee (Bank@Post) $2.50 per transaction
A transaction fee you'll never have to pay again
If you make a payment to your Virgin Credit Card at any one of the Bank@Post outlets nationwide you will incur a $2.50 fee.
