I have been using a Dunia credit card and recently noticed that in the past two statements, they charged me over-limit fees twice, of Dh325. I called their customer care department, but they were unable to help and it seemed like they didn’t care. My card had a positive balance of Dh229.50 on February 1 and on February 2, it was in the negative. If they show balances in positive on the mobile app, how can they charge over-limit fees all of sudden?
I would like to bring this issue to Gulf News’ attention and hope the matter is resolved.
