Surprisingly received a letter from SCB today saying that my credit card application is unsuccessful. Sometimes, I'm wondering what is the method that they are using for screening through applications...

I just applied 3 credit cards from SCB to get the RM200 cash back. So total cash back that I can get is RM600 biggrin.gif

LOL dream on bro. Read T&C note 11.

"If a New Customer applies for more than one credit card through any application channel during the Campaign Period, the cashback will only be awarded to one credit card, namely the credit card with the highest cashback entitlement."

Don't think so because this is what the CS told me.

Even there is an annual fee, you can always call to CS to waive it...

SCB is unique because everything they offer you during campaigns are stated in B&W in additions to their T&C. Plus, you will be required to sign the paper.
In absence of this paper - then I would ask you to reconsider the validity of their offer/statement.

Not just SCB ... any cc sales agents also I don't trust their offers unless they can show it to me in B&W. Believing these sales agents .. you need to do it with a pinch of salt and believe them @ your own risk. These days card market is very tight ... so they will say anything to make you sign up.

yeah! I just got my RM450 net cash back after GST deduction smile.gif

For Business Visa Platinum, aside from the 0.5% cash rebate, does it give reward point as well?

I know the 0.5% cash rebate is not entitled for fuel purchase, but how about down payment for house purchase then?

I understand that the cash rebate promo is giving annual fee waiver with the condition swipe 3 times within 60 days. If I just swipe once and cancel it, will I need to pay the annual fee?

Thought I post this here too based on echoesian's statement that one earning is 1% "returns"  from their SCB Business Plat and question if there are other cards out there better than SCB Biz Plat here.

Let's do a comparison based on shopping vouchers SCB Business versus MBB VI for local transactions (for overseas no need to compare lah)

SCB - Isetan and Giant RM50 voucher needs 12000 points (0.416%) and when consider 0.5% cash back total = 0.92%
SCB - Hush Puppies, MJ, Courts, Guardian and Popular RM50 voucher needs 12,500 (0.4%) and when consider 0.5% cash back total = 0.9%
SCB - KFC, McD and Tesco RM50 voucher needs 13000 points and when consider 0.5% cash back total = 0.88%
SCB - Jusco (AEON) - RM50 voucher needs 13,500 points and when consider 0.5% cash back total = 0.87%

versus MBB VI 2X Treats Points for local transactions

Popular, Giant and TESCO RM10 voucher 3000 points or 0.66% (stay away from RM10 voucher with 3000 points, better wait as MBB Treats Points are evergreen)
McD - RM10 voucher 2700 points of 0.74% (still not worth it)
Tesco and Giant RM50 voucher 11000 points or 0.9% (here SCB for Giant better)
Jusco (AEON) RM100 voucher 21000 points or 0.95%
Hush Puppies RM50 voucher 8500 points or 1.17%
MJ RM50 voucher 9000 points or 1.11%
Coffee Bean RM10 voucher 1800 points or 1.11%

So from above, it looks like if want unlimited cash back, HLB Essential at 1% better than SCB Biz Plat. But if your MBB card earns you 2X Treats Points and you don't mind getting cash vouchers, then maybe MBB 2X TP better if you patronize the merchants that offer RM50 vouchers for less than 10,000 points.

Of course best if the merchant accepts MBB 2 AMEX.

However, no one can deny that SCB really generous in giving out cash to its customers  smile.gif

Is this HLB Essential can be asked to waive Annual Fee and GST?

SC reward is really useless.

https://ibanklite.standardchartered.com/nfs...reward_home.htm

Now require 40,000 points for RM100 cashback.

Previously was only 14,000 for RM50!

Look at the vouchers! I redeemed Giant RM50 voucher for 12,000 points 2 weeks ago. Look at the points required now!

oh shxx, in that case is it Premier Miles point better than this Business Visa now?

Is the choice points tie to the single card or accumulated among all the cards?
