TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE CITI BALANCE TRANSFER FACILITY

In these Terms and Conditions of the Citi Balance Transfer Facility (“Terms and Conditions”), “Card” means all credit cards issued by us, Citibank, N.A. (Philippine Branch) (also referred to as “we”, “our”, or “us”), while “you” refers to the select Citi principal Cardholders who are of good credit standing and who are eligible to avail of Citi Balance Transfer. By availing of Citi Balance Transfer, you agree to the following Terms and Conditions, and all applicable terms and conditions under the Citi Card Agreement and all related provisions of the Citi Installment Facilities:

1. Citi Balance Transfer is an installment facility where select Citi Cardholders of good credit standing who qualify for Citi Balance Transfer may apply to transfer to his Card his outstanding credit card balances with other banks and pay the same, together with applicable interest and other fees, on installment basis (“Installment Transaction”). To avail, you must be the principal cardholder of the Citi Card account and of the credit card account with the other bank or card company, and your account/s with Citi and with the other bank/s or card company/ies must be in good credit standing.
2. The Citi Balance Transfer request will be subject to verification and credit approval by us. The approved total Citi Balance Transfer Amount must not exceed the total amount due with the other credit card company and the unused portion of your Citi Card Relationship Limit or Account Credit Limit, as applicable. We may at our option require a minimum availment amount for Citi Balance Transfer.
3. Where we approve a request for Citi Balance Transfer, the total Citi Balance Transfer Amount (“Principal Amount”) shall be subject to these Terms and Conditions and all applicable terms and conditions under the Citi Card Agreement and all related provisions of the Citi Installment Facilities.
4. You should continue to pay the required amount due on your other credit card/s until our payment is reflected in your other credit card’s/s’ statement/s of account/s. We will not be liable for any interest, penalty, or any other charges on your other card in case you fail to do so.
5. You warrant that the amount/s transferred from the other credit card account/s is/are free of claims and is/are not subject to any dispute. Once the Citi Balance Transfer application is approved, we can no longer reverse the Citi Balance Transfer transaction.
6. Citi Balance Transfer transactions shall not earn points, rebates and miles (“Usage Privileges”).
7. You expressly agree that charging of the Principal Amount is deferred for the first Statement of Account, and acknowledge that you will pay an initial interest in consideration of the longer payment period provided to you to repay the Principal Amount. The Monthly Installments Due will be reflected on your second and succeeding Statements of Account after the approval date, and the interest component of the Monthly Installment Due will be computed as set out below.
8. The initial interest is computed based on the actual number of days from the approval date of your Installment Transaction to your first statement date after the said approval date. It will be charged on your first Statement of Account issued following the approval date. The initial interest is calculated by multiplying (i) the approved Principal Amount, (ii) the applicable monthly Effective Interest Rate (EIR) [computed as set out below] and (iii) the number of days from the approval date to the first statement date; and dividing the total by 30 days.
   It will be reflected on your Statement of Account as the charge on Month 0 [Balance Transfer Initial Int].

9. The Monthly Installment Due will be billed and reflected on your SOA after the Posting Date as [Installment Facility or Merchant Name (001:00x)] and so forth. You may compute the monthly installment due (“Monthly Installment Due” or “MID”) using the following formula:

   Principal Amount x [1+(Converted Monthly Factor Rate x Term)]

   Term

   Where Term is the number of months that you chose for your Installment Transaction.

   Each MID of your Installment Transaction will be included in the Minimum Amount Due (“MAD”) in your SOA until the end of the Term of the Installment Transaction.

   The MID of your Installment Transaction comprises the billed Principal and interest components, which are computed on a diminishing balance basis. The Interest and principal components of the Monthly Installments Due vary each month and are computed as follows:

   1. Interest component:

      Prior month’s outstanding principal balance x monthly Effective Interest Rate (EIR), where monthly EIR = (1 + Annual EIR)^1/12 - 1

   2. Principal portion:

      Monthly Installment Due - interest component for the month.

   The Monthly Installments Due will be reflected on your second SOA from the approval date and succeeding Statements of Account as [Balance Transfer(001:00x)] and so forth.

10. Your availment of the Citi Balance Transfer means you agree to pay us interest on the Principal Amount on the dates specified in the SOA at the applicable Converted Monthly Factor Rate with a corresponding Effective Interest Rate per annum based on the outstanding principal balance and the Term.

    For example:

    Term* (Months)	Converted Monthly Factor Rate**	Annual Effective Interest Rate**
    12	1.00%	23.70%
    18	1.00%	23.92%
    24	1.00%	23.84%
    36	1.00%	23.39%
    48	1.00%	22.85%
    60	1.00%	22.31%

    *The Term in this table refers to the number of months that you will be paying for the Principal Amount and the applicable interest. The Term does not include the period covered by the first statement of account (period covered by the initial interest).

    **The Converted Monthly Factor Rate (CMFR) is presented as a guide that can be used to derive the Monthly Installment Due (principal plus interest).

    ***The computation of Annual Effective Interest Rate includes a Processing Fee of P900.

    NOTE: THE EFFECTIVE INTEREST RATES (EIR) IN THE EXAMPLE ABOVE ARE BASED ON INTEREST COMPUTED ON A FIXED 30-DAY PERIOD PER MONTH. THE ACTUAL EIR OF THE INSTALLMENT TRANSACTION MAY BE HIGHER OR LOWER AS THIS INCLUDES THE INITIAL INTEREST AND THE PROCESSING FEE.

11. If your Citi Balance Transfer request is approved, you shall be charged a non-refundable Processing Fee of P900 for each Citi Balance Transfer Transaction.

12. We will charge the interest rate and/or fees as disclosed at the date of availing the Installment Transactions which shall be applicable during its entire Term and no additional fees and interest will be charged for this Installment Transaction, ONLY if you pay in full the Total Amount Due of your SOA by the Payment Due Date every month until you have paid all installments. However, if you pay (or had paid) an amount that is:

    1. equal to or greater than the Minimum Amount Due but less than the Total Amount Due indicated in your current (or previous) SOA, the billed portion of the Principal Amount of your MID in your current SOA will be subject to the prevailing monthly retail interest charge from one day after Statement Date to one day before payment date. Interest will be compounded on a monthly basis.
    2. less than the Minimum Amount Due as reflected in your current (or previous) monthly SOA, the billed portion of the Principal Amount of your MID will be subject to the prevailing monthly retail interest charge from one day after Statement Date to one day before payment date and additionally any unpaid portion of the billed portion of the Principal Amount of your MID will also be subject to the prevailing monthly retail interest charge from the payment date to the next Statement Date. Interest will be compounded on a monthly basis. Usual Late Charges will also apply. The above is subject to the terms of our Citi Card Agreement.
