Revised Late Payment Charges for ICICI Bank Credit Cards:
As of now, there is no late fee in case the amount is less than Rs 100. The bank will charge you more, with an increase in your due amount. The maximum charge it will levy is Rs 1,200, the lender has notified. Here are the hiked charges for late payment on your ICICI Bank credit card —
Due amount less than Rs 100 – No charge levied
Due amount between Rs 100 – Rs 500 – Rs 100 late fee
Due amount between Rs 501 to Rs 5,000 – Rs 500 late fee
Due amount between Rs 5,001 – Rs 10,000 – Rs 750 late fee
Due amount between Rs 10,001 – Rs 25,000 – Rs 900 late fee
Due amount between Rs 25,011 – Rs 50,000 – Rs 1000 late fee
Due amount up to Rs 50,000 – Rs 1,200 late fee
In addition to this, a flat charge of Rs 50 plus GST will be charged from the customers’ savings bank accounts, the bank has said in the notification. However, these hiked charges are not applicable to ICICI Bank Emeralde Credit Card, it added.
So, if you cannot pay your credit card dues within the stipulated time, it is advised not to use your credit card any further till you clear the charges. This will result in an increase in your interest charges. You can also convert your big payments to equated monthly installments or EMIs to ease the burden.
