Added on September 22, 2011, 10:52 amI think better ask CS in DA on this. because the earlier info was given to me when RM from CIMB Preferred called me of the migration.

Maybe it's time to top-up my DirectAccess Current Account to get CIMB Preferred upgrade

Yes I am referring to migration to CIMB Preferred, so those not entitled will be either getting Prime or regular current account

The migration only applicable to DA current a/c. DA will still retain its credit card division.

Your source is from ?

I called the platinum card customer service around 6pm. Unless they provided me wrong info...

Fyi, VS CL Min RM50k.

Wow, I wish it's real ! So I can expect my DA Plat converted to CIMB VS !
If things turn out to be CIMB Plat, I think I'd cancel it.

What's the problem with CIMB Platinum ? I wish my DA Platinum also get upgraded to VS/VI/WMC

The reason I only want CIMB VS is GSC Gold class free ticket.
And, if CIMB discontinued the 0% BT, I also will cancel it.
CIMB card to me is simply useless except its BT. Its SmartPrivileges sucks.

Totally agree with you !!!

The Direct Access migration to CIMB started from July until 31 Dec 2011.
Those who had not get any calls on the migration should just wait.

Guess I will cancel this card soon since not much usage besides using it to pump Petronas and the rebates are pretty low. A month of RM300 - RM400 usage only manage to get a rebate of RM4 - RM8.

Yup, CIMB mastercard really useless.

Nothing special and cash rebate for us

Not entirely true. The card does not match your expectations and spending patterns. To some people it is very useful.
For example ... I have the card but I don't use it for my general spending. However it gave me interest free installment for my hospital bills which no other credit card in Malaysia offer.

Yup. totally agree. Each cc from different banks is different from one another. Just apply for the one that meet your requirements

CIMB Direct Access is good for me.

1. Got 0% BT.
2. Get 15% off for liquor at Eraman.
3. Get 15% discount at Amarin and Flying Chillies. Can use points to pay bill too.
4. Get Free coffee at Dome.
5. Get Free movie ticket including Gold Class at Mid Valley. Since my wife has the VI too, we can get 2 free tickets.
6. Get 10% of at Alexis.
7. 0% Interest Free Education Installment for my children primary and secondary school fees. Local private colleges also, hope they still have it when my second child enter college next year.

Does the Education Installment applies to payment to Kindergarten/Nursery ?

Call CS and ask and then report here

What i like about cimb cc

1. NO annual fee
2. up to 15% discount at Eraman. If you dont know what is Eraman, you can get super cheap price for liquor, cigar and chocolate. i bought a lot of liquor and chocolate whenever i visit Eraman
3. 0% BT
4. lots of promotion and discount

What i dont like
1. No option for E statement. For those who apply 10 BT, you will receive 10 paper statements is there any option to sign up for e statement ?

Eraman - CIMB discount only apply to liquor but not other items... if you look at your bill carefully
