since you are already using ocbc titanium, hlb wise, uob one, and mbb2cards amex, the next choice would be the post i mentioned above.
aeon watami 3% rebate for every other transactions (outside of watami & except petrol).
if your petrol cash rebate 5% is not enough, you may also consider citibank cash back platinum (which offers the features 95% similar to uob one card).

with your annual income of 36k-60k you are now actively using 7 cards (including mbb2cards)?

Why not? I thought as long as your income more than RM3k per month, you can apply more than 2 cards.

1. Annual Income: Rm72k - rm 100k

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Not really particular

3. Card required for:
Need a 2nd card for discounts movies, paying my Digi bills, to pay stuff on groupon and App Store.
Once in a while petrol too

4. Existing credit cards if any:
Applied AMEX already. Just got it approved. I opt for this card because my current job makes me travel a lot. So the plaza premium lounge is a must for me. Hehe

5. Looking at CC from:
After reading from all the sifu I think my 2nd card should be either a MACH, UOB one platinum or perhaps ocbc I-titanium

6. Others:

Hello all, I'm new to this. Just got a stable job for the past 9 months. My Amex card just got approved but I need a 2nd card as others have mention in case my Amex some merchant won't accept.
Pls advise me.
Thank you so much smile.gif
