As far as I know Bank Islam highest card is only Platinum ... no WMC.
Must be a new product if there is such a product.

They do have WMC, was launched in 2009. This is what I know, no much information from their official website about this product.

*[WTA]* Transaction slip states RM40.69 and not RM41.02! Difference of 33 sen is insignificant, but is DA/CIMB entitled to charge admin fee or has there been a mistake somewhere? Transaction with MBBKard 2 Visa (see transaction on 8/3/2011 at Merchant EDFS above) is as per transaction slip.
*
BTW, UnionPay has an Exchange Rate Inquiry here which indicates the exchange rate for TWD (NT$) to US$ on 10/3/2011 as: 1 TWD = 0.0342 USD.

To be specific .... any VISA/Master from MBB will be good. This answer is correct from the forex perspective which give you the best rates.
Even there's a difference between VISA/Master rates .... the difference is marginal.

If you factor in points, etc .... then the answer will be rather complicated. (I assume you want a short simple answer)

CIMB Bank credit card call centre phone number can be found behind your credit card. And when you call then, just tell them which transaction you want to convert into installment plan and ask them to explain to you what installment plans they have now.

I already mentioned based on zenquix's and wshoh's transactions, MBB 2 AMEX better when considering the returns in voucher but you have to pay upfront. Those of us who use the card for personal expenses would rather go with MBB Visa/MC to enjoy the lower conversion rate. However if you are using the card overseas on a weekend and spending less than RM1K and assuming you will benefit from the 5% cash back, then MBB 2 Amex better. Actually I am just about to finish my article on this for my blog and should post it tomorrow.

Do you ever read your statements or look behind your card where to the CS number is stated? Anyway, click below link for most credit cards CS contact numbers.

http://creditcardsmalaysia.blogspot.com/20...ource=BP_recent

As for installment plan, I guess you asking about CIMB i-plan, when youcall CS tell them you want to convert your transaction amounting to RMXXX on DD/MM/YY to installment and they will check if your transaction is in the sydtem and if yes they will convert it for you. And you have to do it before your statement date.

Since boon is back, can you like look into my suggestion where we can have a sub-section like Stocks where we can have a thread for a specific card and from there we can discuss the pro and cons in detail. E.g. would be great for OCBC Titanium where ronnie can list all the places he visit giving 1% or 5%; thread for overseas transactions; thread on pay pal; thread on free movie tickets; thread on travel insurance; thread on forever ending question on CL and etc.

Sorry I overlooked it as I'm not always in this topic.
Maybe you can request it at front desk and see how many people supports the idea.

The idea of finance, business and investment section is actually meant more towards finance. But seeing how the credit card community grow, maybe we could have one if the admin agrees.

So pls post in front desk for the admin to consider.
