How can I avoid paying late and over-limit fees?

Avoid over-limit fees by regularly checking your available credit and not spending more than this
Avoid late fees by ensuring you've paid at least your minimum payment before the due date
Pay special attention when using payment methods such as BPay and personal cheques, which can take between 3 – 5 business days to process.
Ensure sure you have sufficient funds in your account so all direct debits and other scheduled payments can be made.
