QUOTE(glauncher @ Mar 11 2015, 01:07 PM) Hi guys, want to ask...I've been buying from a local pharmacy about 10k a month. Wondering which card suit me best to get rebate? will be great if got mb 3-5% off my bills... Given the amount of 10k a month, which is huge, you can try aeon watami 3%, but only minimum 3k spend per QUARTER, rebate up to RM150 which means up to RM5k spending per quarter. (which is still far from what you spend. Else you can go for HLB Essential or OCBC Great Eastern. UNLIMITED 1% cash rebate. More straightforward. If by local pharmacy you mean, Watson, Guardian, Caring, Citibank Cash Rebate/UOB One gives 2% rebate, uncapped.

Some of the credit card offer annual fees waiver with minimum swipes, but does online transaction count as "swipe"? Apologies if this question sound redundant, never used any card before so please enlighten, thanks in advance

Is your pharmacy located within a supermarket, i.e. Caring in Tesco, etc? if so, you can try Maybank Visa Signature, it gives you up to RM88 cash rebate every month.

QUOTE(DuO LoN @ Mar 16 2015, 06:17 PM) is there any thread on the rm50 GST removal for credit card thing? i mean how does it work now? if my card is free for life, does it mean i no longer have to pay the RM50 gst from now on? Annual fee and the RM50 GST charge are two different things. After 1st April, there is no longer RM50 GST charge. 6% GST will be imposed on the annual fee but since your card is free for life, there will be no charge imposed.

Hi all,
I am looking to apply for a new credit card, HLB Wise card but I already have an existing credit card from UOB. Should I cancel the existing card to increase my chances ?

Only can use in caring pharmacy within supermarket? How many % off? My pharmacy is a small shop in Penang but their price is normally cheaper than big chain pharmacies. I guess there's no any card available for small pharmacy store right?
