Many cards are better than HSBC Amanah nowadays.
MBB Petronas, CIMB Petronas, PBB Esso cc, Amex Gold cc, HLB Essential, OCBC Titanium..etc for example. Any one of the abovementioned is far better than Amanah.

Talking about big swipe, I had done enough survey before swiping a huge amount for partial downpayment of my recent property purchase. I needed to pay RM80,000 within 2 weeks and the developer accepted MC or Visa, but not Amex. During that time I only had Amex Gold cc, OCBC Titanium and SCB JustOne Titanium. I wanted a card which could give maximum rebate for the big swipe. I shortlised HLB Visa Essential, PBB Platinum and SCB WMC. HLB Visa Essential does not give cash back to offset the service tax for new card, while PBB Platinum's cash back and points are based on complicated tier system and PBB could not guarantee to deliver the card within 2 weeks. In the end, I applied for SCB WMC and received the card 14 days later. SCB gave me 30,000 points as a welcome gift. Soon after I received my SCB WMC, I paid the partial downpayment using SCB JustOne Titanium (RM10,000 for 5% cash back) and SCB WMC (RM70,000 for 2x points or 1% cash back). For those who are familiar witn SCB JustOne Titanium should know that this card gives 5% cash back for all types of purchases made on Fridays and the maximum cash back per year is capped at RM600 per month. The reason I swiped only RM10,000 on SCB JustOne Titanium was that I had already spent more than RM5,000 and SCB JustOne Titanium needs an annual spending of RM15,000 for AF waiver.

After the huge transaction was made, I immediately applied for DA VI which was given 1-hour instant approval in Pavilion. Thereafter I submitted the application for the 0% interest BT programme for 6 months from SCB to DA. By doing this, I could delay the payment but at the same time, the money that I had reserved for the payment to the developer could also keep growing in my deposit account. biggrin.gif

1. HLB do offer cashback to cover the gst NOW sweat.gif
2. PBB Plat cashback system is not complicated as Alliance. it just straight forward count, not tier smile.gif

'per month' & 'per year' is very big difference!
600 per year = average 50 per month.
He swiped 10k, 5%=500 already. Left only RM100 cashback quota.

yes i got it.

but he wrote rm600 per month, seems like can have max cashback more than rm600 per year, or if x12 its rm7200 per year sweat.gif

nvm. the max is rm600 per year, but not rm50 per month notworthy.gif

If it is true, then doesn't he make a mistake to swipe JustOne too much?

if he already earned some cashback previously, the remaining quota must be less already. Hence this 10K swipe might not earn full 5% rebate but the remaining cashback limit.

no mistake there smile.gif

justone give 5% only on friday, other day is 2%.

he said he already swipe 5k, probably on other day (not friday), so he already get back 2% which is rm100.
then he swipe another 10k (on friday) to get 5% so its rm500.

he also said he swipe 10k only want free AF (since already swipe 5k).

so he get max cashback and free AF thumbup.gif

usually people who use 'limited'/max/capped cashback cc, they will know/calculate regarding the cashback amount notworthy.gif notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

yeah winner. pls reply! notworthy.gif

if 5k get 5% means already get back rm250, and if:
10k also 5% then he can get rm350 only (even it is rm500).
10k is 2% then he get rm200 only (still have rm150).

i think 5k is not on friday (2%, rm100) and 10k is on friday (5%, rm500) brows.gif
