Cash finance charges

[deanpatt]

Why do you need to look into the account if the charges are calculated on the withdrawal?
I thought you dont pay for the transactions, that is why the finance charge is so high, and a card charge .
Banks charge for everything, i am to scared ti go into the bank cause you will charge me for that as well.

Hi,

I have also noticed an item on my credit card statement described as "cash finance charge".

From the solution that has been posted this was ascribed to cash withdrawals. However I have not made any cash withdrawals in the past two to three months but still have relatively huge amounts on this item, more than the interest charge.

I must say not only is this disappointing but disingenuous and just plain criminal for a bank to be making such deductions for quick buck, I am incensed.

Hello @Sanele3574

There is a chage for every cash transaction on your credit card. You will notice that this charges will depend on your usage of your credit card especially if you are using for withdrawals on any ATM.

Please see attached credit card pricing for 2017: http://www.standardbank.co.za/standimg/South%20Africa/PDF/Pricing/Credit_Card_Pricing.pdf

Let me know if this was helpful.
