It was GREAT to know that Anupam Shrivastava (General Manager, SCB Retail Banking Products Malaysia) decides to maintain the 0.5% Cashback until further notice

With the RM228 Free Cash promotion ended on 31 May 2011, they better come with an even better deal to attract new cardmembers.

Suggestion for SCB Cash Back Credit Card
1. 6% Cash-Back for ALL spends on Friday, Saturday, Sunday (Monthly Cap : >RM50)
2. 5% Cash-Back for Petrol, Dining, Groceries, Utilities, Pharmacies, Cinemas, Bookstores (Monthly Cap : >RM50)
3. 2% Cash-Back for other spends
4. No ChoicePoints will be given
5. Annual Usage Bonus of RM50
6. Free-for-life (i.e. no AF)
7. Immediate Cash-Back posting (2-3 days after transaction is posted)

I agree with this.... SCB has seldom given me surprise for credit card offer/promotion.

The SCB Platinum cash back of 0.5% is like the standard norm where we also get approximately 0.5% in returns with points.


Edited/Updated

August 2012, is the best time to go apply for the Standard Chartered Business Platinum or Gold credit card. Reason being StanChart is offering FREE money for credit cards approved in August. And to top that, the SCB Business Platinum and Gold credit cards approved in July and August 2012 are eligible for 5% cash back for Petrol But, as usual, there are terms and conditions, click below link to read more.

That's right...but the Business Visa gives 0.5% (Direct Rebate) and 0.5% (ChoicePoints Redemption) = 1%

Where did you get the notification from ?

This post has been edited by ronnie: Jun 2 2011, 12:17 AM

I received an sms, followed by a notification email from Stand Chart. Thats the content quoted from the email.

I am using JustOne card. 5% rebate on Friday and 2% on rest of the days

applied in mid may but only 31/5 called to verified & ask for scanned IC and i ask them whether i'll get the 228 cash after the card approved after the promo ended on 31/5. they say ok, but im unsure somehow

Good luck. I think even if you don't get the RM228, you can still ask for the 11000 ChoicePoints to waive the GST.

About the latest promotion, anyone has any idea if the RM1,500 has to be done first before the dining spending can commence receiving rebates.

Their example in T&C

Wonder what will be the rebates given for the scenarios below

Example Scenario (within same month)

Spend RM500 in Dining first
Spend RM1000 on Others later

Rebate - RM 125 or RM 0?

Example 2 (within same month)

Spend RM200 on Dining first
Spend RM1300 on Others
Spend RM300 on Dining after that

Rebate - RM 125 or RM 75?

Can you ask the SCB CS for us and update here... thanks

with my previous experience, as long as u can spend RM1500(include dining) in the particular month, you can entitle for the 25% rebate provided you have sent the SMS before all of the transaction.

Yes, it's stated in the t&c. Spend at least RM1500 on retail charges for a particular period (or month), then you'll get 25% rebate on your food for that particular period/month. And you also need to meet their conditions, like register your cc first (for 38k customer only), received confirmation, etc.

This rebate on top of the discount offer by "SCB dining Privilege" will be fantastic !!! Father's Day dinner coming.

SCB Dining places usually gives 15% discount + 25% rebate (1 Jun to 31 Jul 2011) ... close to 50% off your dining expenses

Just clarified with CS a few things :-

1. You must first SMS and receive the confirmation from them to be eligible.

2. You will be eligible for 25% cashback for all dining swipes in the month, provided you have spent RM1,500 or more for that month. Therefore you can spend RM600 on dining and RM900 on anything else and you will receive RM150 cash back.

3. Each month is treated separately, meaning if you spent RM1,500 in June and nothing in July, you will still get the 25% for the dining spending in June. You are not required to spend another RM1,500 in July unless you wish to get 25% cashback in July as well.

4. The maximum cashback awarded per card in RM150 for the whole promotion.

Started my Dining spend for June 2011... hope to get the 25% cash-back rebate.

Another question: As long as I'm within the 38,000 cardmembers who registered successfully, I will get the 25% rebate, right ?
