This is still better than HSBC Amanah (0.5%) or SCB Business (0.5%) and more importantly better than 0% if you use other cards !
And don't lah compare with promotion specific cards which give you large discounts ... these are cards which does not discriminate your spendings.

Yes I agree. if card holder can spend RM15000 (to avoid AF) per year than better use JustOne. You will get better rebate.

If you only spend 500 per month you only get a peanut, 0.6% per month.

To be exact, the cash rebate is 0.5% for Alliance Younique and 0.6% for Alliance Plat, for the 1st RM500 spending monthly.

Direct Access rebates every Sunday until 30 Sep 2009 when spend at MPH (10%) and Guardian (5%)

I believe this applies to CIMB Bank Mastercard holders as well ?


QUOTE(Dannyl @ Jun 25 2009, 10:39 AM)
So far I've not seen any retail merchants which offer special discounts for SCB and Alliance, unlike the other banks.
And the other banks are Maybank and CIMB Bank. These two have lots of promotion year round with CIMB Bank having the most discount. I guess CIMB Bank really take their credit card business seriously.

urm now bank dun open on saturday anymore.. got any alliance bank booth in shopping mall this coming weekend ah?
Certain branch do open for business on Saturday. Please refer to their website.

yesterday received a call from scb regarding my justone, told me that they just received my application... but i submitted last week... today is exactly 7 days after i submitted... omg, so efficient...

This could be because the delay from the courier company or they only ship your application form to their HQ just before the weekend. There are a number of reasons ... the fastest way is to fax it directly to their credit card centre.


QUOTE(he-sham @ Jun 25 2009, 02:31 PM)
yerp...if i'm not mistaken HSBC amanah & SCB Business cash rebates are unlimited....no cap...
HSBC Amanah MPower Credit Card-i has no cap. 1% cash back for overseas spending and only applicable to HSBC Amanah Platinum MPower Credit Card-i holder only.

As mentioned by GHz, do note that Alliance cash rebate is based on tiers. You have another option besides your payslip which is go get your latest EPF statement where you can also proof your basic salary from the amount credited monthly.

I asked earlier is the cash rebate maximum RM600 a year for JustOne? Any idea?

However the choice points is "half" of other cards i.e. RM2= 1 choice points. Therefore one will need to spend twice as much with JustOne card to be "rewarded" with similar gift compared to other cards in general. This is acceptable since the cash rebate is good at 2-5%.

On AF waiver, it is already stated cleary that one needs to spend RM15K a year which is pretty high. So those who do not spend this much, do expect to pay AF comes next year and don't hope for waiver.

Factor in the admin fees for overseas spending and the 1% cash back is now negated to just 0%.

JustOne product is new and probably you need to wait till next year when the 1st batch of early adopters need to renew their cards. I wouldn't be surprised if SCB refuse to waive the AF. You want good rebates and free card ? Unlikely .... unless the market introduces a similar competitor to this product, I predict SCB to stand their ground on the AF waiver condition.

Whether or not RM15K p.a spending is a lot or not .... well you guys know yourself how much you spend in a month. hmm.gif (Cash + credit based spendings)

They do have special promotion for some merchants. In fact they seldom advertise in the newspaper and only send out brochures to their existing customers together with monthly statements.

We referred to 2nd year AF actually. I also feel that it won't be easy to request for AF waiver for 2nd year. It may become a 1-year card for me then if I spend less than 15k as I prefer using Alliance cc on non-Fridays while travelling abroad.

I think it would be better to print out your latest KWSP statement from KWSP kiosk.
Thanks.

I would like to ask really, as a fresh graduate earning around 2k a month, would it be advisable to own 2 cc's?

I have got one from CIMB and I was told, by my friends, I should get another one, possibly from a foreign bank like HSBC ,CITI etc....coz sometimes locally issued cc's can give you problems abroad..is that so?


Thank you icon_idea.gif

for the 1st year, just use 1 CC... maintain good record, pay on time...

then after 1 year, u can use ur CC to apply another CC...

local issued cc wont give ur any problems for oversea transaction if u are informing your bank before u travel to oversea.
