On the other hand, if you pay your credit card balance off in full every month, without fail, finding a killer interest rate probably isn’t so important to you. Having a piece of plastic that won’t charge you massive annual fees, however, should be top priority. So take a look at the great no fee credit card option from Citi below:
| Product | Purchase rate | Balance transfer rate | Annual fees | Interest free days | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 19.99% p.a. | 0% p.a. for 15 months and then 19.99% p.a. (1.50% balance transfer fee) | $0 | 55 | Go to site |
If you’re credit card spending is all about earning rewards then check out the huge range of rewards options from Citi. You can choose a card that will earn you a bunch of different goodies, like gift cards, retail products and cashback, or one that funnels all those points straight into a frequent flyer program. The catch is, that like other rewards cards, these Citi credit cards will generally come with higher annual fees and interest rates in return for all the freebies on offer.

If you want something a little fancy in your credit card experience, then check out the prestige cards on offer from Citi.

Citi are customer focused and deliver what they promise. Nothing is too much trouble. They are second to none. Thats why they are the only bank I have ever used as my Credit Card financial team.

Citibank tend to hardly be helpful with requests when requested. They lack care regarding my financial situation.

Citibank's customer service is fantastic. I like that they listen to your needs and actual staff members talk to you rather than a robot when dealing with complex issues. Staff are more than happy to help and are courteous with all dealings.
