I shifted most of transactions to Alliance VI after CIMB TWE's local transactions 10x bonus points ended on 31.12.23. One thing about my Alliance VI is the limit is extremely low, I plan to increase it. Is it easy to get approved?

It was really difficult for me to get their card in the past as they requestd a lot of things and I didn't want to go through the same nightmare to be honest. laugh.gif

the credit limit can be requested after 6 months, i tried and i got it.

they are quite stingy about credit limit compare to other oversea banks, don't put high expectation to it.

Hmm not in my case. They were quite generous in giving me credit limit. I have credit card from quite a number of banks and alliance is ranked after CIMB and Maybank in terms of my credit limit.

Hi, for VS :

In your experience, does the charges via the supplementary card count/combine towards the monthly usage of the principal?

To elaborate, I ask because the optimum usage for VS is known to be RM 3k without MCC conditions, and I'm hoping to get another 3k for reasons.

Hopefully I manage to word it correctly.. Haha, thank you.

almost all card benefit counts toward principal, no exception for alliance vs. either u get 2 principle VS, or join their privilege and get another privilege VS for another 3k.

Hi Sifus,

Just wondering how the SST is calculated for the virtual credit card?
I understand I'll be able to create multiple virtual credit card for different usages.
Does it mean that each virtual credit card would be charge RM25 SST?

Thanks.
