anyway, I have a Q here,
my friend have a Citibank Gold Card and Citibank-Giant card, she tend to pay her bill with Interbank Funds Transfer,
since she is paying for 2 cards, will she need to pay twice of the RM2?
Yes. Because it is two separate accounts.

BTW, HSBC classic card also min salary for classic is 18k/annum and want latest payslip, but if less than 3 months they want confirmation letter.
refer here - http://www.hsbc.com.my/1/2/personal-bankin...ard-eligibility

bad news is - annual fee free only for 1st year (but i got platinum free for life with no condition - by invitation only biggrin.gif)
want it free, swipe min rm14.5k on 1st year so u get the points to redeem. another rm9.5k for govt tax. (swipe oversea will get 3x points).
HSBC can waive the annual fee for you provided you swipe the card at least 12 times in a year.

Go to this site and fill in the figures.

http://corporate.visa.com/pd/consumer_serv...er_ex_rates.jsp

Note that CC exchange rate is real time and counted more than 2 decimal points, so transactions made and posted on the same day 10 mins apart can have different rates.
Bookmarked ! Thanks a lot for the link thumbup.gif

7. International Transactions
Transactions incurred will be converted to Ringgit Malaysia using US Dollars as the base currency on the date the item is received and/or processed at such exchange and at such time as may be determined by VISA International/MasterCard Worldwide at its absolute discretion plus administration cost which is to be imposed by the card issuing bank. The exchange may differ from the rate in effect on the date of the transaction due to market fluctuations. Such rate imposed shall be final and conclusive and the Cardmember shall bear all exchange risks, losses, commission and other bank charges which may thereby be incurred.
- HSBC : 1%
Just found out the overseas administration fee for HSBC credit card is now 1.25% and not 1$ anymore.

Not that I know of. but normal plat offers 2x points for overseas transactions + insurance.
Is the Maybank normal Platinum credit card 2x Treatpoints for overseas transactions still valid ? Remember someone mentioned this a while ago but they did not state anything about 2x Treatpoints at all in their website. Can someone please confirm ?

u are not worried that it wil affect yr ccris by not paying in full?
Not paying in full will not affect your CCRIS. Not paying the minimum stated in your statement will.

HSBC users here, pls share ur experience with current promo - SMS & WIN?
http://www.hsbc.com.my/1/2/personal-bankin...c=MYH_LP_SMSWIN

yesterday, (of coz swipe >rm100), swipe then SMS at 20:03 and received reply "overhelming responses. closed for the day. pls join tomorrow!"  sad.gif

then, today, again, swipe then SMS at 15:58, same reply! doh.gif

so many HSBC user that swipe >rm100 before 4pm???

will try again tomorrow around 11am and let see if still overhelming  sweat.gif
Have not tried it myself ... Had this kind of thought that all HSBC promotions are useless and i just did not bother to participate in it but all this changed when i found out i got RM139.85 cash back from their previous promotion last week. Anyway, HSBC has many big ballers using their credit card. I guess you stand a better chance of winning if you send in the sms in the morning.


QUOTE(hebe87 @ Nov 17 2010, 12:03 AM)
nt sure but anyway the effect will not be the same.. younique card just simple printing and it may lack glossy material that is included in VI card
Materials used to make the Standard Chartered Priority Banking VISA Infinite are kind of cheap just like HSBC Premier MasterCard. Everything printed/embossed on the card will start to fade away just after 1 year of usage. It is very prone to wear and tear too doh.gif

all my cards are cheap too! haha. btw u should cancel ur stupid debit card la. if still want use debit card, go for cimb e.mastercard (free for life with no condition).

His RHB Bank VISA debit card is not stupid actually. Assume he can get the annual fee waived or can actually meet their requirement for auto annual fee waiver which is to sign up for auto-debit or to charge at least RM5,000 into the card in a calender year, it is easily the best debit card in Malaysia due to the fee-free cash withdrawals at all local banks ATM thumbup.gif

yea yea. my DA plat already replace twice this year! card and chip still ok but when swipe immediately shows chip error. rm20 (rm10 x2) gone for card replacement only sweat.gif
I believe you can actually request for the replacement card fee to be waived smile.gif

yes but need to pay 1st, next statement rm10 credited back.
Just in case you also have to replace your HSBC VISA Platinum, they can waive the replacement card fee for you right away without needing you to pay in advance.


QUOTE(Gen-X @ Nov 17 2010, 10:28 AM)
Haha, all cards are stupid since they can't do anything by itself, but then again maybe I am the stupid one since did not read the T&C before signing up  doh.gif . Got the RHB debit card because want to skip q to get to teller, and RHB charging me for this! The card only gives cash back 0.5% for transactions, however it does give 4X access to KLIA, LCCT and Senai Lounges. Alliance Plat Debit Card with 2% cashback which is technically free is much better in my opinion.

Having said above, I have yet to use any of my Debit Cards for transactions but mainly to withdraw emergency cash.

Now itchy want to get RHB Plat CC. They getting me the PB application form for Plat Card as was informed that the normal form for Plat card no auto annual fee waiver.
Do you know if you get the normal ATM card instead, are you still going to get unlimited fee-free cash withdrawals at other local banks ATM ? And are you going to get the same high withdrawal limit per day which is RM10,000 with the RHB PB VISA debit card ?

It should be noted that the charge for foreign transaction using HSBC MasterCard is pretty high ...

Which particular RHB debit card gives fee waiver for auto-debit/minimum 5k, or no-fee other-banks ATM withdrawals? It's not mentioned in any of the fees and charges section.
The RHB Bank Premier Banking VISA debit card. You can get it by deposit RM200,000 in your RHB Bank account smile.gif

By the way, the first year annual fee is waived.

My OCBC Ti Mastercard transaction also around the same rate of ~2.45 (+/-) for the week of 7-14 Nov in Singapore
Just 2 days ago ...

Maybank Visa was cheaper by a bit around ~2.42 (+/-)
This should be about right. This is the rate quoted by VISA International in their website.

There is a monthly cash back cap for OCBC Titanium (RM50 from 1/1/11 onwards) and Citibank Cash Back Platinum (RM30 for petrol).
The monthly cash back cap for petrol using OCBC Titanium MasterCard is RM30 too starting from next year.
