utalkin2me Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Are there annual fees tied to their platinum visa cards? It doesn't really mention much in the literature. If I want to make a purchase on Amazon UK will I be charged an international fee %? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sas_cars Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Annual fee depends upon conditions once you apply for the card. Usually Platinum Cars of Kasikorn didn't have annual fee when I applied 4 years ago. Don't know if it's still the same. It's better for you to call and check with them. No international fee is charged when you use your Kbank credit card in a different currency. But a currency conversion risk charge of 2.5 % is applied on top of VISA/MasterCard exchange rate on the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked and they said there was no annual fee, then in the literature it said something like "annual fee may be waived under certain circumstances". ??? Oh well. Thanks for the info on international purchases. I guess I will not use it for that then. At this point, I am pretty much expecting an annual fee (annoying, as would not have got it of I knew there was one) and i'm expecting points to be charged in international purchases as you say. Another "oh well" i guess. Edited March 4, 2013 by utalkin2me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was asking myself the same question I am kind of at a loss to be honest, but since it has come up twice.... I walked into Kasikorn and applied for one. Maybe a how to get a credit card thread would help you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
