Anyone have idea if HSBC Premier MC, HSBC Advance Visa Platinum and HSBC generic cc are combined credit limit or not?

If we already hold a Standard Chartered Bank Priority Banking Visa Infinite, then we are not eligible to apply for the newly launched Preferred World Mastercard.
If you choose the Preferred World Mastercard, then you have to cancel your Visa Infinite and downgrade status to Preferred Banking.
Meaning we are unable to hold both card at the same time, and the Preferred Banking rewards seems to be better than their Priority Banking rewards.
This is what my RM told me, anyone have idea with it?

How about if one cancel his/her VISA Infinite credit card but continue to be a Priority Banking customer and at the same time opening a Preferred Banking account ? Will he/she be able to to apply for the Preferred World MasterCard now considering he/she has canceled his/her VISA Infinite ?
No, it's either one you can enjoy only. Same bank but manage by different department.
If you are Priority Banking status, you only eligible for Visa Infinite.
If you are Preferred Banking status, you only eligible for World Mastercard.
This 2 type of banking status cannot be cross over with each other.
Anyway it's my RM which told me. Maybe anyone here have any idea?
Please share. Thank you.

Anyone with the Standard Chartered Priority Banking Visa Infinite successfully apply for the Preferred Banking World Mastercard?
I check with my RM but he had no idea, call their CS also same.
They claim that the product is too new and the product guideline is yet to be ready.

Anyone get the Standard Chartered Preferred Banking World Mastercard?
Curious how is the credit limit they offer for this card?

Anyone got the info UOB going to launch Preferred World Mastercard and Visa Signature soon in Malaysia?
HSBC Visa Platinum only need RM100K annual income to apply, looks like they are going to launch new premium credit card too.

Anyone can confirm If we already holding Standard Chartered Priority Banking VI, can we still apply for the Preferred Banking WMC?
Looks like the own staffs also blur with their own product, some told me need to cancel the VI then only can apply the WMC. Some told me actually can hold both card without problem.
Called their CS they are not sure, e-mail them and no reply. Ask the relationship manager they claim product to new, will get back to me once the management set the product guideline.

For SCB, when the time I sign up for their Priority Banking VI, it took about 1 month to received the physical card.

I think limiting 2 cards from 2 bank only for new applicant, for existing cardholder I don't think so.
If it is true, a few card issuer might facing big trouble!

You are probably over credit exposure.......

False information given by SCB RM and CS. They told me we cannot hold both Priority Banking VI and Preferred Banking WMC at the same time(they denied to let me apply when I visit their branch) but I faxed my WMC application direct to their card centre and my application approved in just 1 day.
By the way,I still hold their Priority Banking VI........

Wow.....
8/9 approved until now still not receive the card. Mine approved on 16/9,looks like need to wait until middle of Oct only can get my card.

Mind to share the credit limit they granted?
No idea they will increase the credit limit or just combined with the existing SCB card?

Amex Malaysia just launched a Co-Brand new credit card with Pantai Hospital.

RHB Islamic just launched their new credit card-i(Gold & Platinum)
By the way, minimum credit limit for RHB Visa Infinite only RM100,000. Few of my fiends get invitation from RHB for this card as their current RHB credit card limit are RM100,000.
However, RHB Visa Infinite card did not open for public to apply. It is by invitation only. If not, going to apply one because the card design is cool.....
