Do you rarely use the card ?

It's a good thing to check our CCRIS once in a while. Well, BNM limits us to check it once everyone three months only. I wondered how's your CCRIS report looks like. No remark at all i suppose ? Mind to share


I was just 17 years old when i first checked into a hotel using my own name. It was Le Meridien Singapore (now Concorde Hotel) and the check in went through just fine. Anyway, the hotel was all paid for before i checked in

Lucky lah your son. Only 19 years old already got a World MasterCard. Even a debit card was so rare just a few years ago and i had to screw the internet over and over again before i finally found out that Public Bank offers a VISA Electron. Wanted my own card so badly then because i often buys something from the internet and it is much more convenient if i have my own card

Oh my God!!!

Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum/Platinum MasterCard

No. You can't. You need to travel in Dynasty Class (Business Class) or hold a high-tier Dynasty Flyer FFP status in order to gain access to their lounge.


VIP card ? For credit card users ? It's a SCAM man. You did the right thing by hung up on them and you should continue to do so next time you receive a similar call

Has since moved back to where it was

I believe you weren't loss. I think it's because of 7-14

Thanks for the compliment And all the questions have already been answered


Yes please

Any of you had any prior experience booking a room through Hotelclub.com ? May i know in what currency they are going to bill us ? Say for hotel booking in South Korea ? Is it going to be in KRW or USD ? And what if we choose to view the rate in MYR ? Thanks in advance!

The admin fee ranges from 0.5% to 1.25% for MasterCard and VISA issued locally. Please refer to the first page of this thread for more info.


Any information you need to know about EON Bank GSC VISA can be found in Hong Leong Bank website.

Yes. Like a few seconds ago when i saw this post of yours I guess they found many unfavourable comments about their credit cards here hence the withdrawal of the sponsorship Anyway, just a wild guess.

By the way, i told them they should look into Maybank and OCBC credit cards when they called me to ask me a few questions about their credit card just two days ago I told the guy Maybank gives me 5x TP whenever i use my MBB2 AMEX and the guy was like... wah!!! 5 times ah ??

LOL. I think the guy is from a company called callop or caleb something. They are doing a survey on behalf of Citibank. Actually, it wasn't just a few questions. He asked me many different questions and i needed to grade them. The whole process took 13 minutes 25 seconds. I was also asked if i'd recommend Citibank credit card to other people and i said i'm neutral on that. At the end, he asked if it's ok to include my real name (no, i didn't have to tell him my name over the phone because he already knows my name) when they submit the survey back to Citibank or i'd prefer to do it anonymously


I'm not aware of the 2x points. Which card gives 2x points for overseas use ? Their regular platinum credit card ?





As well as me, Gen-X, Hye, you, Winner, alexwsk, zenquix and a few other regular posters

Let me answer this question myself

I booked a room through Hotelclub and was billed RM2857.62, the exact amount quoted to me in MYR in the checkout page. There was no currency conversion at all. Should i have known this earlier, i would have charged the room to my Citibank VISA instead of Maybank VISA

Anyway, the booking was made just 2 days ago and when i went back to the website this morning, the rate has gone down a bit to just RM2816.50. It means that i overpaid RM41.12

Whenever you choose to book a room through Hotelclub, always choose MYR as your default currency. You'll notice that their MYR rate is lower than the rate quoted in USD or Korean Won (in my case).

For example, when i checked the room rate this morning, i was quoted RM563.30/night for a Deluxe Room at Sheraton Seoul in October. However, if i choose to see the room rate in USD, it is US$189.14 while in Korean Won, i was quoted KRW205,584. No matter how good the exchange given by Maybank is, you won't get the same MYR rate quoted by Hotelclub.

Yeah, the 5x points are applicable only for spending at selected places. It used to be a promotion or something but now it is a permanent feature of their cards (just the regular Gold & Platinum cards).

Yes. Only at these places :
- Tangs
- Metrojaya
- Isetan
- Parkson
- Jaya Jusco
- Robinsons
- Marks & Spencer
- Cold Storage
- Tesco
- Giant
- Carrefour
- Servay
- Everise

Kindly post your question here.

You do go to the cinema, shop at the shopping centre and eat outside once in a while right ? So, once you get your credit card, do not use cash. Charge everything to your credit card instead in all the places that accept credit card. The bank is rewarding you by giving you either reward point which you will need to accumulate to redeem for anything stated in their rewards catalogue or cash back whenever you use your credit card. You get nothing if pay by cash. Be a smart consumer

Photocopy.


Yes. You should.

Since you have a mortgage with OCBC, try to get their OCBC Titanium MasterCard. This card can save you up to RM600/pa.
