QUOTE(chemistry @ Oct 20 2010, 12:03 AM) Hi, I've made a PDF which summarizes OCBC's iQ elite & basic accounts. Kindly pls pay extra attention to ATM withdrawal fees. [attachmentid=1842742] Those are OK as I don't intend to withdraw much from iQ... main use for IBG purposes. I can't find their Interest rates for iQ account type.

You also need to check if there is ATM annual fee. I would rather open one or two basic savings (no annual fee) account which is entitled to 2 free IBG trxn each month. I think the two iQ accounts are non interest bearing? There isn't iQ accounts found in webpage of deposit interest rate. This post has been edited by chemistry: Oct 20 2010, 12:40 AM

Any non-fee Basic Savings Account which earns interest will be better than it. Imagine, a CIMB non-fee BSA with 0.85% interest p.a, maintaining a mere RM1000 for one year gets you RM8.50, which is equivalent to 4 times IBG (say IBG charge = RM2 per trxn). Not to mention CIMB's vast presence as opposed to OCBC's.

QUOTE(zenquix @ Oct 19 2010, 01:38 PM) Was looking at my OCBC statement, and just realized I got charged interest. Although the bulk of the interest was reversed off due to the 0% interest promotion, there is a portion of interest that was not. A call to the CS gives me the answer: "This is the interest on the GST, which is not covered by the 0% promotion". I asked them to waive as I made more than the minimum payment to even cover the GST in full. Anyone have the same problem? DID U manage to get interest on the GST waived? I call the CS to enquire about the same situation and they reply that as long as u pay the minimum payment no interest will be charge on the GST.

2 weeks ago made few transactions at Singapore with DAWMC, Alliance Visa and OCBC Titanium. Alliance conversion forex rate was the highest followed by DAWMC and OCBC. OCBC and DAWMC rate about the same. Alliance rate was 1.24% higher when comparing to the other two cards.
Last year when I used Alliance Visa at Singapore the rate was comparable to MBB. No more using Alliance Visa for me for overseas transactions.

Yeah the Alliance Visa is banned from overseas transactions. Alliance MC's rate still looks ok

If your monthly spending is only a few hundred RM then why do you want to hold 2 cards ? The old notion of having 2 cards for backup purposes is not very strong anymore these days as generally cc systems are very reliable. And there's even the OCBC Ti for you to consider which serves as a good all rounder card.
