A businessman has won his lawsuit against Republic Bank Ltd over a US$30,000 credit card rebate for expenses incurred during a medical emergency abroad.
Delivering judgment on Tuesday, High Court Judge Robin Mohammed upheld the claim brought by Gerald Sirjoo.
In May 2018, Sirjoo, who holds a VISA International Signature Card issued by the bank, travelled to the United States, where he suffered a medical emergency requiring neurosurgery. He paid the US$58,424.80 medical bill using the card.
