QUOTE(vampbreak @ Jul 9 2009, 11:23 AM) My Miau Bank Petronas Card CL as per today. I was totally lost when you and Tinkerbel kept talking about this Miau Bank just now ... QUOTE(vampbreak @ Jul 9 2009, 11:23 AM) Current TreatsPoints: 5405 Until i saw this. It's a tiger bank lah QUOTE(vampbreak @ Jul 9 2009, 12:11 PM) Err~ I think 15k is a standard limit for every Miau Bank Gold Card? Not true at all.QUOTE(vampbreak @ Jul 9 2009, 12:32 PM) That why I'm a charge card fan. Amex work like a charm and accepted widely overseas. Miau Bank Card good for backup....and installment plan.. Not in Japan. Heck, not even in the US due to higher merchant fee imposed. But a friend told me a US co-branded credit card charge almost the the same merchant fee as AMEX but many retailers in USA do not not about this. QUOTE(WaCKy-Angel @ Jul 9 2009, 12:38 PM) Maybank can issue both Amex card and American Express card How different is Amex card and American Express card ? Amex is the short form of American Express QUOTE(vin_ann @ Jul 9 2009, 01:18 PM) is Amex Credit card also work like a charm and accepted widely overseas as their counter part charge card??? Not really. AMEX never had the market share that VISA and Mastercard are enjoying.This post has been edited by MilesAndMore: Jul 9 2009, 01:30 PM |

The problem with CTOS is they are just cut outs from the papers and didn't contain what the suit is all about, so banks dealing with mass consumer would need to have a blanket policies and rues which might not favour the consumers. |

QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Jul 9 2009, 01:09 PM) Isn't it "ignorance unless proven guilty"? So in this case, it is up to the card company to prove your guilt. Actually in the cases of most financial disputes, when transactions are entered into your account, its deemed as good enough proof that they are incurred by you as a general rule. As such, its actually up to you proof that such were not incurred by you and not the other way round. As I had said, unless you are familiar with how a civil case is conducted, very difficult to explain to you. That's the reason also why a lot of sure win cases ended up differently.This post has been edited by tgeoklin: Jul 9 2009, 02:15 PM |

QUOTE(tgeoklin @ Jul 9 2009, 06:59 AM) Its cabin size plus a laptop bag. Got it from the recent promotion where you need to spend RM25K and above within 3 months or something. Not much fun but per SCB, the value is ard USD650, so syiok sendiri saja Delsey is a very good brand. Enjoy it. QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Jul 9 2009, 11:53 AM) @creed, Hey...isn't HLB considered a local bank? U could always check if HLB can give u an increase in CL. Otherwise try to get from a local bank - perhaps they're less strict? QUOTE(tgeoklin @ Jul 9 2009, 12:26 PM) Don't forget you need to pay an upfront handling fee. |

@vampbreak,
And what makes U think I don't have all, if not more of the qualities U mentioned about urself? Ur not v good at negotiation skills are U?! If Visa can give U so many cards, I don't see Y u should be having issues getting a Mastercard. Not to mention, the one Centurion U carry is good enough ! I rather be married to that fella who just got his Visa Infinite approved Now, back to CC please or Ur gonna have to take a vakesyen just like our new friend This post has been edited by tinkerbel: Jul 9 2009, 03:36 PM |

It's a risky game. Make sure don't over-invest and you must reserve the fund to pay for shares in an acc, so that you will have enough fund to settle your debt after the 0% tenure. |
