Hi everyone,
I am planning to make a big purchase ( a car) which I've saved up years for. The amount is going to be around 50-55K, and I am considering using a credit card to pay to get some QFF. It has been suggested to me that citibank business gold is a good option, considering a lot of cards are doing the monthly capped point earning, or very low QFF earning ratio.
the car dealer said I can use cc to pay for the car, but obviously, amex would attract additional 3%, so I want to stick with what i've got.
I currently have a fee free citibank gold card and anz frequent flyer gold. I am very happy to apply for a new card with a higher credit limit for such a big purchase.
1.has anyone done anything similar( big purchase in one hit, over 10K...etc), and get lots of point with this citibank business card?
2. with this business card, do you still go through the same frustrating call center that I normally would have to deal with or you would get a different phone number with nicer people at the other end? ( I had a normal fee gold card, and got so frustrated with the call center that I actually canceled that card and kept only the fee free one)
any suggestions would be appreciated.
cheers
