Is there min purchase requirements, for example, do $5 and $10 purchases count. Also, how many times a day count as an entry. For example, if I use my card 10 times n one day, does that mean 10 entries for that day?
Hi Rafael, I just responded to your comment on Facebook, but just to make sure you have the info: there are no minimum purchase requirements, so $5 and $10 purchases count. And yes, each transaction counts as one entry so if you use your card 10 times then that equals to 10 entries.
i currently have capital 1 as the only credit card that i carry. is that a introductory annual percentage rate, and for how long does that 9 percent last, and what is your actual apr???
Hi John, thanks for your question. The actual APR for the ILWUCU Visa Platinum card is 9.95% – this is the standard rate, not a variable rate. Also, the card offers free balance transfers and no annual fees. Please let us know if you have any additional questions (310) 834-6411.
Being a single mother of 4 I was blessed to have achieved my goal of someday owning a home. May of 2010 my dream came true. I was elated as were my children. The only problem was that now I had 3 bedrooms n a livingroom wt no furniture. I decided to ask our credit union for a little bit of help n was granted the Platinum credit card. I left there wt a smile on my face m thanking God. As soon as I received the platinum card I rushed over to a furniture store n purchased a bredroom for every room n livingroom. My children n I could not have been any happier. My children n I thank the credit union for allowing us to fufill n complete our dream… THANK YOU!!
