Monthly minimum payments
If a statement of your card account shows a closing balance of less than $25, the minimum payment is the closing balance.
Otherwise, the minimum payment you must make is the greatest of:
• the excess of the closing balance over the credit limit on your card account;
• 2% of the closing balance (rounded down to the nearest dollar); and
• $25.

First of all, i do not ask for any opinion on this matter because I know that this is not a right thing to do, yet Im in a difficult situation and I just want to ask people for the right answer.
I am a foreign student in Australia and I got a Commonwealth Credit card with 20,000 AUD limit. Now I am leaving Australia for good as I have finished my study. However, I still have around 5,000 AUD credit card debt. Can i get away with this? Leaving Australia and go back to Hongkong and never return again to Australia?
Thanks
G'day,
My suggestion will be to do the right thing. At the moment, you might think that you will never-ever-ever-ever come to Australia anymore. Not even wanting to say the word "Australia" for the rest of your life.
But who knows... how life's can play a trick on you. Maybe when you are back to HK, you are working and somehow becomes one of the General Manager of a local company that somehow been contacted by a big Australian company to do business that will take your company to the next level. U will have to go to Australia to negotiate the settlement as the GM. That'll be ironic isn't it.
Also... you will not live happily, since you will always have this guilty feeling of not doing the right thing. You will always afraid of opening mail (b'cos it might be a summon from federal police) or a stranger looking for you (b'cos it might be private detective). What would you tell your future wife (and maybe your future children) if one day they catch up with you?
Please-please-please... I believe that you still have goodness in your heart and know which way wrong or right. Please do the right thing.
Good luck for your future endeavor and hope your future are going to be terrific :)
yes it is legit!!!
Games magic: Cabs with credit card machines, woman drivers
New Delhi, Oct 18 (IANS) Limousine cabs, English-speaking drivers, credit card swipe machines in taxis – the Indian capital is pulling out all stops to offer a smooth ride around town as the 2010 Commonwealth Games approach.
