Cardholders should consult the bank before using the prescription service, because there are subtle differences in the specific implementation of the prescription service, such as the final deadline of the grace period.
According to the Central Bank's Self-discipline Convention on Bank Card Industry, it is proposed that banks should establish a time-tolerant repayment mechanism, but the Convention is not binding on banks, and it is only a suggestion for reference.
With the development of credit card business, some customers have maliciously overdue repayment, so the banking association has introduced the convention, which has a more humanized time-tolerant service.
Although there is time-sensitive service, it is recommended that cardholders repay in full and on time.
Because time-tolerant service is a precautionary measure, it can only be used as a remedy for temporary negligence and cannot rely on grace period. Otherwise, once the grace period is ignored, not only will there be a penalty interest, but overdue records will also be detrimental to personal credit.
Credit card, also called debit card, is a credit certificate issued by a commercial bank or credit card company to eligible consumers.

Financial management strategy
1, control the number of credit cards, enough is enough.
Once there are too many credit cards, it is easy to get the repayment date of this card wrong and forget the credit limit of that card, which is difficult to manage, and it is easy to cause overdue repayment and leave a bad record. Moreover, multi-card credit card points, too scattered points are not conducive to redemption of gifts. Therefore, it is suggested that only 1~2 credit card is enough.
2. Keep credit card vouchers
Most credit card holders don't care about these documents, and they won't keep them. Most of them are thrown away, which is a very bad habit. In fact, keeping good credit card vouchers is not only convenient for summarizing consumption records every month, and then analyzing and optimizing consumption habits, but also helpful for improving the rationality and transparency of credit card consumption, so as to clearly understand credit cards. Moreover, many people's credit cards do not have passwords, and discarding credit card vouchers at will may lead to the theft of credit cards.
For safety reasons, it is best to keep credit card vouchers after consumption, so that you can know fairly well and develop good credit card financial habits.

Use your credit card well and choose it well.
