hi guys, i've been using CIMB cash rebate platinum credit card for a year now.

i have not done any installments before thus i thought of dropping a stupid question here, see if any kind soul can answer me..

i'm currently eyeing a macbook from apple website.

Let's say the item is RM 4,099. I purchased via the credit card and I would like to convert the purchase into installment plan, how does it work and what is the installment rate?

Thanks in advance! notworthy.gif

edit: am looking at 12 months / 18 months installment period.

below is the link to my credit card : http://www.cimbbank.com.my/en/personal/pro...tures--Benefits

and what does "10% cash rebate on monthly interest paid" mean ?

thanks again!  icon_rolleyes.gif

if you have late payment or partial payment that caused you to be charged with interest, they will take 10% off the interest.

Apple store online doesn't have any tied up with any banks. unlike, example dell malaysia. With dell, you can convert to 0% based on the t&c with the selected banks.

1) you can call to the bank convert to installment - but apparently based on some post back, a forummer said it is not possible with CIMB. usually other banks have this function but definitely not 0%.  again, try calling CS, see what's the rate.
2) you can apply a second card, make use of balance transfer. the interest is lower i think, some offers 0% too.
3) you can apply ocbc silver card, automatic conversion to 6months 0% instalment payment plan.

I bought an iMac before with 12-months installment plan using Maybankard 2 AMEX at The Curve's Machine store.

Anyone here using CIMB credit card that comes with Touch n Go feature?

I've been using it for 3 years and I noticed my auto reload was charged with extra RM 2.

Called the bank and they said this year, RM 2 service fee will be charge for every auto reload. sad.gif
*
with GST in April, I think you will be charged another 6% on the RM2.00

while auto debit is convenient, to maximise my cash back, especially with M2C is totally worth the inconvenience... it's a ritual paying bills on saturday tongue.gif

OT: I know that TNB payment can be scheduled for future payment (pick a Saturday) with Amex card 2 via Maybank2u.

Nowadays, reward points is close to worthless. You'll never know when the depreciation game starts again.

Any promotion now for new CIMB CC applicant? Just received a call from CIMB offering dual card.
*
I was told that I will be put under the dual card promo, too.

When I asked about what's the benefits of getting 2 cards (1 of the card being the generic card), I was told 2 cards will be given and they both sharing credit limit.

Thought it through and there is no added value, I insisted only 1 card and not 2.

I think it's just the matter of the credit card telemarketers to sell 2 cards (volume).

Yes the same was told...shared CL.
So end up you applied for 1 instead of 2?
*
Why need 2 when 1 is all that you need. The 2nd card is a generic card that gets you 1 bonus point per RM1.
knowing the current trend of bonus point reward, I rather not, even if it's free.

went to nearest cimb branch to apply the cash rebate master hoping that I can strike out the tng zing card. End up no option as well and have to call cs later once got the card. Waste of energy and sweat  rclxub.gif

Huh!? Every new card will bundled with Zing card? I thought optional punya!
Anyway, if you don't activate it, should be ok still.

is the RM 50 gomen tax gone for the card ? I just received a cc which I never applied for from CIMB so wondering if the tax is on there but it says lifetime annual fee waiver

Yes, the RM50 gomen tax is gone.

Yes again, no more tax if it says 'lifetime annual fee waiver'.

so the saga continues.

After insisting on just 1 card, instead of the duo combo cards application, the Tele-CS still proceed my application with combo cards....

How did I find out? Received 2 letters stating my combo cards are ready for collection/on its way through delivery (still haven't received them though).

Called CS to request for cancellation of the other card that I don't want. Was told that the combo promotion gives RM25 for RM500 spending. I said No.

a few days later, CS called to ask why I wanted to cancel, told her I never applied for the other card. Reiterated the RM25 rebate promotion. I responded that I am not interested.

In the end, CS said if I accept the card, I will get RM25 without doing anything, I said OK.

LOL
