QUOTE(Joshua_0718 @ Oct 19 2014, 04:36 PM) Need some advice on how to utilize my cc. Do not know how to fully utilize it. Holding a OCBC world mastercard (1.2% cash back unlimited) and Maybank petronas platinum visa card (points). Both cl is almost the same where Maybank has higher cl. Which is should I focus on using the most? I always confuse. Cashback or points would be better. OCBC - http://www.ocbc.com.my/personal-banking/Ca...mastercard.htmlMaybank - http://www.maybank2u.com.my/mbb_info/m2u/p...sonal/CRD-Cardsif you pump at petronas, use your mbb petronas card. other than that, use your ocbc world.

Hi,
I want to ask, if I want to apply for Maybank2 Gold card and I am not working (still studying) but I have ASG and FD total >Rm50k, can I use that to apply for Maybank2 Gold card?
I am thinking of going to midvalley and apply. Bring photocopies of FD certs + ASG book
What are my chances?
Thank You

As you are still studying, you have no income documents to support your application so there is no doubt, your application will be much harder than normal to be approved. But if you do apply, please keep us inform whether your application is successful or not.

According to my friend who works at RHB Bank, due to the high volume of application they get everyday, they will only pick a few applicants randomly to call to verify employment details.

QUOTE(leetan33 @ Oct 23 2014, 04:02 PM) http://www.chinapress.com.my/node/571056Key points:1. Government is expected to stop imposing service tax on credit cards following the implementation of GST next year. The service tax for credit cards policy has already been in place since 2010. However, 6% GST may be imposed on the annual fees of credit cards. 2. According to insider news from the banking industry obtained by China Press, some of the nitty-gritty issues have yet to be sorted out but it's almost certain that Bank Negara will stop imposing service tax on credit cards (RM50 for principal card, RM25 for supplementary card). 3. Some of the local banks waive the annual fees for their loyal customers, but it's uncertain if this initiative will be continued after GST comes into effect. some interesting stuff on GST and AF. i am also worried on what happen to cashback for petrols if the subsidy is given based on Mykad
