I just cancelled my 2 SCB cards because of GST and within 3 working days, they called me to take back 1 of the cards.
Now waiting for UOB to do so as well as I just cancelled it as well, but I guess they are slow.

A bit off topic, but anyone tried this for Citibank Clear card where when u cancel, they will waive the GST?

I went to SCB's branch and cancelled it. Hmm...I guess Citibank would rather lose customers than paying for the RM50. They really believe in the benefits they are providing to cardholders are attractive enough. How often do u use the card?


I did not swipe it for the last one year and I had every intention to cancel it. What am I gonna do with the extra 1K points? Use the card and collect up to 10K just to exchange for some measly voucher? I'd rather use other cards that give u instantly more - like cash rebates.

Yeah...I saw that in their before last time as well...but still, I will need to use another 4K before I get another 4K points. See, the "evil" they make u do.
Better I spend this 4K with 5% / 7.5% rebate? Even though I know now they're offering the 25% dining cash back for these two months but, my
monthly food bill does not reach their minimum amount.

On a side note, for F&B industry, usually these are the 2 slowest months in the year if I'm not mistaken. Anyone from F&B industry, correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.

Hmm...i gotta do that this year, and seriously, this time I want to cancel my card.
