While banks in general aren’t doing as well as they could for customer satisfaction, St George is showing the others how it’s done, coming top in recent Roy Morgan research.

So you know if you pick from the St George portfolio of credit cards you are going to be pretty happy with the service that comes with it.

And they’ve also got it covered when it comes to choice;

St George offers five personal credit cards:

1. Amplify Visa Card
2. Vertigo MasterCard
3. No Annual Fee Visa Card or MasterCard
4. Gold Low Rate Visa Card or MasterCard
5. Platinum Visa Card

All of the St George cards are competitively priced in their respective niches, in particular the Vertigo MasterCard, which has a standard variable APR of just 13.24% and an introductory balance transfer rate for 12 months of 0.99%.

The Amplify Visa Card and the Platinum Visa Card are also offering competitive introductory rates on balance transfers for 6 months.

Both the Vertigo and the No Annual Fee cards have a minimum credit limit of $500, half of the standard $1000 required by many cards.

This makes them really useful as second cards or cards you might use purely for online shopping where you want to minimise the potential risk from credit card fraud.

St George also has a few other fraud detection and prevention measures in place for extra customer security.

Register for internet banking and you can access the Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode services that validate online transactions with a password, in the same way as entering a PIN when you shop in store.

The St George Falcon 24/7 fraud detection service checks and informs you of any unusual activity on your card, in case it has been stolen or copied and is being used for unauthorised activity.

Some of the PIN pads on their ATMs are fitted with PIN pad shields to keep prying eyes from taking note of your PIN, and they also have anti-skimming technology fitted in their ATM’s.

Skimming is the illegally copying of the information from the magnetic strip on your credit card which is then use to make a fake or cloned card.

A good range of competitive credit cards, good customer service, and an eye on security makes St George credit cards a bit of a steal these days.
