Annual fee waiver is up to the bank's discretion. Applicants who signed up already know that there will be an annual fee involved, unless it is stated clearly no annual fee.

knew that it will have annual fees, for the past years always waived off.
Gonna go down to branch to settle it

Yeah. This could be SCB new direction to cut spending.

When I saw online that GST was charged to my Visa Plat, I called the CS to cancel the card. I was counter-offered to keep the card and SCB will credit rm50 to offset the GST and waive the annual fee.

No additional RM50 free cash on top of that ?

Finally got my petrol cashback RM95....wahaha..angbao for CNY.

yay got my card today ! Hopefully cna see the 300rm rebate soon

If I get RM55 cash back then RM195 cash back, I not entitled to the 15% petrol cash back?
I remember I choose for the touch n go card package.

Another Groupon offer for SC CC sign up...

http://www.groupon.my/deals/klang-valley-k..._27&a=715827975


Package A: Samsung DV300F camera with 4GB memory card and camera case with free nationwide delivery (RM599 value)
Package B: 3-month access to True Fitness (RM599 value) with RM300 cashback (RM899 total value)
Package C: Pixajoy photobook (RM135 value) with free nationwide delivery and RM300 cashback (RM435 total value)

that's interesting ... haven't try using groupon before ... but wonders how they define "For first-time credit card customers of Standard Chartered Bank" ... if i cancel "All" my standchart cc and after cooling period of 6-mths then i would be considered a fresh first-time credit card customer thereafter? ...

then it would encourage consumers to cancel all their cards (that doesn't have any benefits) and wait for the next available benefits to apply again - and the process repeats itself again & again & again - no more customer loyalty

I just got the RM55 rebate, do we need to make any transactions to activate the RM245 rebate?

if you get the RM55 cash-back, you will get the Touch N Go signup offer, right ?

I clicked on the up to RM300 rebate when i signed up late. So i hope its not the touch and go offer.

I read that it is disbursed as RM55 then RM245 on the following month. Is it true?

SC card itself i see not so much benefit. But always got this kind of new sign up things to attract new applicant..

No need. I kept it until I got full $300 (actually, it's $250 after gov tax).

True.

ya, after few considerations still think that SC cards are good during new sign-up. upon then, should spend using cards like MBB2cards, Ocbc to get better cash rebates or points. Every new sign-up package is attractive. but not for existing customers. i wont if existing customer cancel their card, what's the duration of cooling period before they re-apply with SC plus eligible for new sign-up promotions

i apply for touch and go offer, but looking at my statement, i got RM55 last month, and RM 245 today. So that means i am not eligible for the 15% petrol rebate anymore?

guys, wanna ask regarding payment via online. if i pay this CC using M2u, how many days will it debited to SC account. is it immediately or take few days. coz planning to pay on my due date..
that should be the case i suppose. its either cashback or TnG or smartag.

At least 1 working day to process.
