  • Cash advance fee. Withdrawing money and other cash advance transactions will cost $3.5 or 4% of the transaction (whichever is greater).

    Hi,

    I’d like to know if my GE Money Go Mastercard offers complimentary International Travel Insurance if I purchase my full return international airfares using my card.

    Thanks and regards,
    Adelqui

      Hi Adelqui,

      No, the GE Money Go MasterCard does not offer international travel insurance.

      I hope this has answered your question.

      Thanks,

    I have completed the payments on my purchase, but continue to receive monthly statements asking for $2.00 each month. It is now $4.00. How can I stop this ? I have attempted to ring the 1300 no. but have had no success.
    With my final payment, I requested no further statements, but they continue.

      Hi Peter,

      Thanks for your question.

      According to the GO MasterCard fees and charges webpage, there are a few fees that could be charging you $2.00 each month. If you receive a paper statement each month, you’ll be charged a $2.00 for each statement sent to you. Otherwise, if you’re making your payments via Australia Post, this will also incur a fee of $2.00.

      In regards to fees of $4.00, there is a fee of $4.00 for international cash advances and a $4.95 account servicing fee which is charged monthly if the outstanding balance is greater than $10.

      I’ve sent you the full list of fees and charges via email.

      If you’re unsure which of these you’re being charged for, you may need to try contacting GE Money again.

      I hope this has helped answer your question.

      Thanks,

      Sally

    Do you need a pin number to withdraw on this card?

      AvatarFinder
      JonathanJune 15, 2015Finder

      Hi Vikki, thanks for your inquiry!

      That is correct. MasterCard’s require a personal PIN number for withdrawals.
