Thank you. Lemon is an interesting app and most of the apps you mentioned falls under generic day to day apps.

Am just trying to see, is it just me or others also like this. Even though there are thousands of apps, am just using 8 to 10 apps regularly. May another 5 to 8 apps once in a week or even once a month.

Is there any law, by which the merchant should inform me or the credit card issuer bank?
