hi all
two days ago, I've just cancelled off my RHB classic which been followed me for 8 yrs long due to the incompetent offer and benefits. Today the bank called me up and decide keep me to stay with them by offering me NO GST, NO Annual fee and double up my CL from now onward.
So I really wonder doesn't it they overturn the GST rules been stated by government whereby the bank are not allow to absorb the GST for the customer?
The second question is, should I accept it or reject it? or ask them to offer me platinum card with same condition?

but somehow i still think that their cc benefits are sux(Note : currently I am holding OCBC Ti and MB2 Platinum)
1st, they not overturn gst rules.
usually u still need to pay the gst 1st and they will credited back rm50 later in next statement.
or, as Human Nature replied - they give u points to redeem gst
2nd, since u already have OCBC Ti and MBK2, actually u can just reject the offer. cancel the card.
why? coz the card got the annual fee rm70 (
source).
if u ask for plat, the annual fee is higher, unless u did swipe rm36k/year with the card to get free 2nd year annual fee (
source). if not, cancel the card before annivessary month next year

If you can indeed nego for the plat, and get confirmation in writing, no AF/GST or RM50 cashback with no condition, it could be worthwhile to keep the card for the 4x complimentary access to all Plaza Premium Lounges since it is not offered by your current OCBC Ti and MBB2 Plat.
AF for plat is already free for 1st year.
like i suggest above, if spend less than rm36k/year, cancel the card on the 11th month!

Get confirmation in writing as in stated all those in the paper mail?
yes. get the b&w letter mailed to you. but the chance to get free plat AF for life seems almost impossible

unless, u open PB with them
