What's wrong with the preauthorization? Why do people want to avoid it? Does it affect credit score or something?

it wil earmark the amount and it will reduce the available credit limit.

Example, if u have debit card with balance of RM300 and u goto pump petrol and it will earmark RM200 due to preauthorization even u pump RM10.

U can only use RM100 balance in your debit card only.
The earmark of RM190 sometime need to wait few days or evern more than 1 weeks for bank to release.

U will no see any impact if u use credit card and have 10000 credit limit which if u no use it anyway.

Anybody using Public Bank Petron credit card? Any good?

what have you read about the card, from the T&C?

nope... just know it is everyday 5%, cap at RM50 per month...

READ the t&c or pbb-petron page, then you'll know whether it's useful to you.

Just found out that petronas got prepaid card F1, RM105 credit just need to pay RM100. Indirectly is 5% rebate. Btw, anyone using maybank petronas card, the cash back is still available?

it's a gift card, read the promo here

new card is mbb ikhwan visa petronas with 8% weekend cashback on Petronas spending. there's a dedicated topic here

Oh.. It is a tier kinda cash back.. Alamak

If this is so.. Maybank ikhwan is still better la..

which is why i kept stressing you to READ the t&c and product page before you decide if the card is good for you.

i will need to cancel the card already la.. Or just dont activate it when i receive the card..

card cancellation recommendation has been stated many times by other users in various threads.

CALL CS to CANCEL the any UNACTIVATED card(s). better be safe than sorry later.

ok... thanks!

Due to the MBB AMEX campaign, I would like to ask if anyone know which Petron station using Pin & Pay?

Jalan Pasar, KL
Not sure if AMEX is accepted tough.

may i know what is the best combo for credit card as of now?

petrol cards that i own
uob one, maybank islamic ikhwan mc,cimb cr mc, hsbc amanah mpower visa,m2c amex gold.

petrol reward cards that i own now
petronas mesra card, petron smiles at times pump ron100 quite costly as hard to find those with ron97, currently pumping bhp ron97, also trying shell as well, but vpower racing is even more expensive than ever,
