Below 36k, BNM's 2 card only rule applies, no?

issuers not cards.

uob = 1 issuer

Cheh.

Meaning even if I am earning less than 36k, I can whack all the low end cards from Bank A and still can get few more from Bank B ( Since not more than 2 issuer in this case )?
*
yes, but all the cards will share the same cl under the same issuer.

fyi, conventional and islamic (or other non- conventional) are considered as different issuers. for eg. mbb2cards and mbb ikhwan. even hlb wise and hlb mach.

if you want to have other options:
1) pbb aia = 2% aia insurance
2) aeon watami = 3% quarterly rebate (requirements needed) on anything except petrol
3) hlb wise = 10% on selected categories (requirements needed)
4) cimb cr = 5% online
5) citibank cb plat = 5% petrol (af applies)

Went through the maybank mbb2. Dont know why it's two cards? Sorry I'm kinda blur at this. The credit card I'm using is with me since I started work 5 years ago.
*
basically the benefits of mbb2cards is on the amex card. you will get 5x points on everyday transaction and additional 5% cb on weekends transaction. however, amex card is still not as widely accepted if compared to visa/master. so there's a visa/master as the second card as backup. but only 1x points everyday use. if you have other better cards, you may use that as backup instead of this.

Dear,

1. Annual Income: RM55k

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: preferably free

3. Card required for: Petrol, food and beverage, golf, shopping, bills

4. Existing credit cards if any: MBB2card

5. Looking at CC from: any

6. Others: cash back/rebate/golf privilege

thanks in advance

i think mbb2cards is good enough for your needs?
may i know what is the reason you need another cc?

is it because mbb2cards inflate its points redemption?
or the rm50 cb cap is not sufficient? if yes, which category is not sufficient? petrol or f&b or etc?

1. Annual Income: RM100K to RM150K

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: A Must (or with simple condition)

3. Card required for: Good cash back and/or reward points conversion without a lot of restrictions.

4. Existing credit cards if any: Maybank2Cards

5. Looking at CC from: Open

6. Others: I like Maybank2Cards especially the AMEX. But recent points inflation makes me want to look for better option. There are still a lot of merchants who don't accept AMEX (restriction) and the cash back is only on weekends (another restriction).

Thank you.

No specific categories, but I mostly use CC on petrol, groceries and dining.

get yourself pbb vs for groceries and dining.
as for petrol, you may still use mbb2amex or get yourself a uob one or hlb wise.

Hi All,

Need your advice on selection on the CC.

What is the CC that have a best cash back (preferably weekdays spending) for all requirement perhaps (most important; petrol, groceries, insurance, phone bills, utilities)
PLUS with the additional features of have FREE airport lounge? (is there any? smile.gif)

annual income: 100k.

Thanks!
*
you can get a pbb vs 6% everyday on grocery and online billing (free ppl too with certain t&c) and mbb2cards for petrol (but only 1.25% on weekdays - cover back with 5%+1.25% on weekends), etc. to be used especially on weekends.

1. Annual Income: from rm30k++ jump to rm80k++ (change job+position+salary)

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: A must lo, unless cashback significantly more than annual fee

3. Card required for: cash back for petrol/toll(tng zing)/bills/groceries and the occasional yamseng (1x a mth)

4. Existing credit cards if any: maybank 2 cards gold + citibank cash back (will terminate citi after get rm50 gst refund since rm120 annual fee and not much rebate, hate the rm50 rebate blocks)

5. Looking at CC from: no idea

6. Others: Since new job require tons of travelling, cannot rely on weekends for petrol cash back. Current maybank tng zing reload fees quite high too. Seeing if new annual income jump can bring me more cashback rewards. I estimate an increase in expenditure to 2k mthly (previously less than 1k mthly).
*
with your expenditure increasing to 2k, it's time for you to use hlb wise. can also consider uob one to replace your citibank cb plat (but uob is lowering their cb based on new t&c).

1. Annual Income: RM36K to RM60K

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: A Must

3. Card required for: Petrol, Cash Back/Rebate/installment (intend to use for Petrol & Grocerios only plus installment on electronic products)

4. Existing credit cards if any:

2012 had cc maybank & cimb.

Maybank i pay min everymonth till now but intend to clear off this month. about 1.2k left. in CCRIS, it shows "belum jelas" but its not under special interest. 0000 for the past 12 months
For CIMB, i defaulted payment and started paying in 2014. January 2015, i completed paying and got release letter already.
Also just completed pay off RHB easy late last month (April 2015)

5. Looking at CC from : IDK!! so many.

6. Others:

a ) if i finish paying maybank cc, how fast i can reapply for their cc?
b ) what will happen if i apply cc from many banks at 1 time?
*
a) after 3-6 months finish paying, you may try to apply mbb cc again like mbb2cards or mbb ikhwan.
b) if you apply cc from many banks at one time, it will show you as a desperate applicant and most likely will be rejected.

if you don't mind 1% cb on everything (except petrol) and everyday with no special requirements, you may try hlb essential.

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: A Must

3. Card required for: Petrol, Dining, Clothes, Online Purchase, Cash Back.

4. Existing credit cards if any: MBB2Card

5. Looking at CC from: Hong Leong Mach Visa, HSBC Amanah Mpower Visa

6. Others: Wanna get another CC to get more cash back in addition to the current MBB and also for weekday purchase.

Additional Q: Usually the minimum income is based on the Basic Income or whatever shown in payslip? As my payslip actually shows all allowances inclusive claims.
*
hlb mach will be a good choice. or if your expenditure is >rm1k a month can also consider aeon watami.

yes, usually use basic income or taxable income or income which contributed to your epf. if your allowance deducted for epf then it's surely counted. but some banks did consider the allowance/claim as a source of income too. so just put in and let them decide. nod.gif
