In a situation that the Travel Funds are not sufficient to deduct such costs, charges and fees, ICICI Bank reserves the right to recover the same directly from the Cardholder and/or from any accounts (including joint accounts) maintained by the Cardholder with ICICI Bank or its group companies, and further, to deny/decline or block conduct of any further Transactions through the use of the Card.

Any statutory levy including duties or taxes payable as a result of the use of the Card shall be to Cardholder’s responsibility and if imposed on/recovered/sought to be recovered from ICICI Bank (either directly or indirectly), such statutory levy shall be deducted from the Travel Funds and/or recovered directly from the Cardholder and/or from any accounts (including joint accounts) maintained by the Cardholder with ICICI Bank or its group companies.

Inactivity fees: ICICI Bank shall levy a fees of $5 equivalent every six (6) months on the Card if the Card remains inactive for a consecutive period of six (6) months. For the purpose of clarity, inactive shall mean the Card is not used for reload, refund, ATM withdrawal, Merchant transaction or e-Commerce transaction. This fees shall be in effect from April 1, 2010 and shall apply to all Cards issued by ICICI Bank prior to or after this date.


CURRENCY CONVERSION RATES

In the event that Travel Funds are obtained in a currency other that the currency in respect of which the Card was issued (or subsequently changed), the Travel Funds will be converted to such new currency at the currency conversion rates. This would include the situation of the Cardholder obtaining Travel Funds from an ATM in a currency other than the currency in which the Card was issued (or subsequently charged).

The Currency conversion rate would be the amount that will be deducted from the Travel Funds for conversion from currency of the Card to the new currency as per VISA International/ Master Card/ American Express policy and procedures in force at the time that such a Transaction is processed.

Currently, for Visa enabled Cards, the Visa International policy and procedures inter alia provide that where the transaction is processed on the same day (by effecting of withdrawal of Travel Funds or otherwise), the Currency conversion rate to be used is either:

  • A wholesale market rate in effect the day before processing, or
  • A government-mandated rate in effect the day before processing; which shall be increased in either case, by a fee established from time to time by Visa International. Currently, such fee is 1 %.

Currently, for Master Card enabled Cards, the Master Card policy and procedures inter alia provide that where the transaction is processed on the same day (by effecting of withdrawal of Travel Funds or otherwise), the Currency conversion rate to be levied on each transaction shall be as specified by Master Card for that specific date of transaction.

Currently, for American Express enabled Cards, the American Express policy and procedures inter alia provide that where the transaction is processed on the same day (by effecting of withdrawal of Travel Funds or otherwise), the Currency conversion rate to be levied on each Transaction shall be as specified by American Express for that specific date of transaction.

As specified in an earlier section, ICICI Bank levies additional currency conversion rate/fees that are currently 3.5% plus applicable GST (and can be such higher/other rate as ICICI Bank may specify from time to time), and which will be deducted from the Travel Funds. This is independent of the currency conversion rates/ fees/costs/charges or otherwise as required by VISA International/ Mastercard/ American Express in terms of the above.
