CIMB cards only useful if we use it for their promotions, otherwise the reward points is only 1X AND now no more cash vouchers 
Actually, I find that with CIMB's Pay With Points which includes merchants such as KFC, DOME, MPH and 'Thai-Group-Restaurants', the loss of cash vouchers is no big deal. In fact, it is less of a hassle rather than having to wait for the vouchers to arrive.I think most of us can agree that even if we don't normally take fast food, we do buy KFC for our loved ones at some point in time...should not be to difficult for most of the seniors here (except tinkerbel if she has a CIMB CC) carrying CIMB/DA cards to deplete the points in this manner considering that it takes so long to accumulate points and at the same time, most of us would have switched to other cards as our primary one. As Gen-X said, only use if got promotion-lah such as the current 5% Kinokuniya books discount which ends on the last weekend of April 2011 (weekend being Fri, Sat & Sun). Speaking of which, I think I should buy some reference books even though I do most of my reading from the computer - can get some income tax relief.
With MBBKard 2 in hand, I hardly use my DAMC anymore. Primary use of DAMC now is for BT and insurance premium (even for insurance, I think I'll be switching to Etiqa which accepts AMEX and time my purchases so that I can do a 0% 6 months BT). hahaha
Anyway, CIMB has got a new reason for their 'Hamper-type' promo - this time, it is for Charles Berkeley's wallets (this brand I seriously haven't heard of, and mind you, even after Googling
)@Gen-X, since you're now a man of leisure, this shall be your latest research assignment hahaha - I'm sure it will make for an entertaining read
) and Mendoza luggage (this brand I have heard of) (Be a Fashionista at Suria KLCC, with CIMB...they do seem to be ramping up their promotions recently. I managed to get the Christmas 2010 and CNY 2011 hampers :] The hamper value is actually not bad, you do get at minimum 5% equivalent cash back (too lazy to do a proper calculation though).This post has been edited by wshoh: Apr 15 2011, 05:54 PM
