There is not only a late payment fee of 5% for the minimum unpaid part, but also a penalty interest for the full amount of the bill (the daily interest rate is 0.5 ‰, which starts from the day of consumption, and the interest is recovered monthly until the principal and interest are paid off), and a bad credit record is generated in the Credit Information Center of the People's Bank of China, which affects the application for credit cards and bank loans within five years.
If the payment is overdue for more than three months or the bank makes more than two reminders, the bank will freeze your card, list you as a prohibited customer (blacklist), and will also sue you for credit card fraud and malicious overdraft, which will be enforced by the court. If you refuse to repay the loan after prosecution, and the amount owed exceeds 1 000, the court will impose a sentence on the crime of credit card fraud according to Article 196 of the Criminal Law!
