QUOTE(Wongchoy @ Sep 17 2016, 05:53 PM) It's tough to answer your question. What I know is HSBC is the most expensive. Much expensive than M2C Amex, but nowadays Amex rate is quite high at 2.8-3%. CIMB & MBB Visa / Master used to have the best conversion rate but that's the past. My preference will be MBB and CIMB. Oic.... thanks for the info.I think i will bring UOB + CIMB as one is master one is visa |
