[Hi,

If I wish to apply credit card for monthly petrol RM100 only , shopping estimate RM50 only, e-commerce with hotel booking and e-ticket (overseas), and travelling may be once a year.... which card is suitable for me?

my salary < RM 40k.

Is it ok if I use Maybank 2 card (amex n mastercard) n combine CIMB cash rebate gold card?

Amex = use weekend on petrol and shopping.

Weekday = use CIMB ...

Travel use either CIMB or Maybank master card or maybank debit card.......(transaction charges = 1% ) , Amex 2.5% so better don't use right.....

Hotel & airline booking use CIMB /mastercard??

Example if I need to pay RM3000 permonth for online transaction.

a)If use Amex pay all Rm3000, cash rebate =RM50, rewards points  = 15000,right?
b)If book hotel use Amex pay RM2000, cash rebate = RM50,rewards points  = 10000
Then use CIMB CC (mastercard) pay RM1000, cash rebate = RM30,no rewards points??

Actually I am newbie to cc, is CIMB CC 5% cashback only apply to weekend? If e-commerce also apply to weekend ,then at least more optional.

Thanks biggrin.gif

if you spend rm600 use cimb card which can be use any day so already maxed rm30 and wait for next statement to start spending again. if you have amount more than 1k or u still need to make online transactions on the same month/statement u should use mbb cards on weekends.

for travel overseas use mbb card cos cimb don't have points. best card overseas is aeon card.

for hotel booking if is agoda, u can use either cards just have to remember spend rm600 for cimb but for booking.com remember to use mbb card only

Good day. May I know which credit card is best to use to pay for monthly insurance that will entitle good cash back? I know some cards exclude insurance from their list, thus, would like to check further here. Thanks!

go for aeon watami with 3% cashback but take note of the min spending of 3k within a quarter (3 months)

1) departmental & retail shop in mall
2) any days..

my M2amex always reached max 5% rebate quota on weekend.. Just thinking to get another card for shopping in shopping mall.. mainly clothes..
I noticed citibank/hsbc had quite many promotion in the mall.. but mostly just XX% discount on normal item..

hsbc cards all crappy one u can continue to use amex card and to collect 5x points after you have maxed the 5% rebate but u can get the pbb vs card so u can use it for groceries/online/dining for 6% cash back

1. Annual Income: RM60k

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Must.

3. Card required for: anything which MBB2 amex can't cover

4. Existing credit cards if any: MBB2 platinum

5. Looking at CC from: none so far. Pls suggest

6. Others: preferably visa or master, to maximise cashback during weekdays or where i could not use amex. MBB2 visa is pretty much useless. My expenses might not be much, but occasionally buy stuffs for company from suppliers which can cost a few k.

u can go for aeon watami and use it when ever your amex got rejected only thing is min 3k spending for 3 months to get 3% cashback

Hey guys, don't know whether this is the right place, but is the HSBC cash back card worth it?  They said that I get back 5% on petrol, dining and groceries and on Saturday it's 8% petrol cash back and waiver of annual and govt tax every year. I was considering getting the Maybank 2 cards but now I saw this card and now I'm not sure..  The promoter keep pushing it to me..  Sighh
