QUOTE(Mr Gray @ Apr 11 2023, 11:26 AM) Credit Card- OCBC 365 Mastercard May I know which countries you've withdraw cash out from your Jumpstart card before? Debit Card- Standard Chartered Jumpstart Mastercard/RHB Multi Currency Visa Prepaid Card- Wise Visa Among all these, my absolute favourite is SCB Jumpstart as it has absolutely zero markup from Mastercard rate and free withdrawal for foreign cash outside of Malaysia. I find this to give the best rate. RHB Multi Currency is good too, better rate than even Wise. It is just that you need to convert MYR to foreign currency beforehand to make it worthwhile. Transactions in 16 foreign currencies have zero fees, but if you have insufficient balance in foreign currencies, it will deduct Ringgit balance and attract 1% fee. SCB Jumpstart no need to convert anything, zero fee, it will deduct the ringgit balance at the exact mastercard exchange rate at that time. There was some fees at the ATM when withdrawing in Thailand. According to SCB, the SCB side of fees are waived but not the local banks fees. Has this been your experience as well? |
