For my case,
The automated service will said my application is unsuccessful, then directly repeat with the application is approved.

I called it 2 weeks ago and system says its approved. I also got a call from OCBC on 13th Sept telling me my card application is approved and I'll receive my card soon...

I'd say it's pretty accurate ... for my case at least

Anyway, spoke to a customer service executive (OCBC calls it so) this evening. My call was answered in just a few seconds. Told my problem to the polite Malay guy who entertained me. He promised to call me back as soon as he got the feedback from the relevant department which he did. He called me back just before 6pm and told me that they did receive photocopies of my IC and credit card last week but they claimed that the credit card is still not clear. He politely asked me to resend them another copy of my credit card, preferably through email this time around. Hopefully thing goes smoothly this time

Ya, i agreed.
If i apply directly at bank, mayb can get it b4 raya....

Before raya? Thought raya already over?

I manage to hit RM116 for my first month. Card has paid for itself and some.

I fax them on 13th. They should at least tell me they're processing, not "Sorry, we don't find your application in our record".

At first they told me my Amex card is not accepted, then I took few days to call them back and explained to them it is a credit card. And my card was approved 1 day later...

I faxed mine last fri and was told this afternoon that it was rejected
how come yrs is so slow?

Mayb processing department very busy ba.......
since the card is so hot now........
BTW, y not u ask CS receive your documents or not?

Then i suppose you should talk to them. If your application is lost then you can send them another fresh application form


Because the credit card photocopies i sent them are too blurry ... so i was told.

erm...what happen if die adi still owe bank card debt?

Then u better than me, they didn't tell me any reason.
Just sent a mail to inform me which my i application failed and unable to reveal the reason as confidential to bank.

the estate wil stil be liable to pay the bank!

Don't worry.
Your son have no responsibility to pay for you.

I just received the security pin number today, after receiving the card on 7/9. It was really as slow as a snail!


And, you would get a free AAM membership too.

So envy those who has been approved by OCBC. My card submit on 8/18 until now still under processing.

Then I better take Ronnie's advice, go to nearby OCBC branch to get my pin... since its taking so looonnngg for them to send out the pin...

They did give me a leaflet and a sticker. Something about free towing service ... i believe that's the AAM membership you're talking about

cimb is having ongoing promotion at their card centres. visa infinite / world mastercard approval within 1 hour and card can be collected on the spot.

my friends applied today. for those who don't wish to submit income documents and would like to use existing credit card, if your card is hsbc minimum existing CL required is 30k. if current citibank cardholder, minimum CL required is 50k. if maybank minimum current CL required is 70k.

1)One friend who currently has cimb platinum cards with 45k limit applied using his citibank platinum limit 50k was granted CL of 100k for his cimb world master / visa infinite.
