QUOTE(ronnie @ May 9 2014, 03:08 PM) Can we convert VIP points to cash ? Just submitted my application... hopefully it gets approved. Finally PBB came out with a CC worth applying for. You are always among the 1st to apply new card So far, only know that the VIP points can be used to offset GST. I am wondering why they want to have the account opening requirement. Quite a hassle.

so if apply online, and assume that you get the card, then spend $2000 at the first month after card activation. theoretically the max cash back you can get it:
1. RM60.00 (assuming 1000 for grocery, dining, online) 2. RM60.00 ( activation bonus by spending at least RM80 in 60 days ? is this visa signature equal to platinum) 3. RM150 ( PART 1 of $388 online application promotion, to qualify for the RM150 Cash Back, the Qualified Cardmember must have charged on his principal credit card an accumulated retail purchase of RM1,000 and above within the first 2-months from the card approval date ) 4. RM238 (PART 2 of $388 online application promotion, Balance Transfer TnC)
and lagi get 0% from BT ?
Maximum CB first month = 60 + 60 + 388 ? = 508 ?
Does the CB stack-able? Sounds like a big frog on the street.

According to the ad in The Star, we get RM188 for Early-Bird applicants (first 300 New-to-Bank customers).
I do hope to get the RM60 activation & RM150 (from the RM388 campaign as well)

The VS card is not listed under card selection at the online application yet. Bear in mind that to be eligible for the 150/388, you need to apply online.

For me they are complementary for I would use Wise for mobile,petrol and deptstore, PBB VS for dining, groceries & online and MBB2Amex for weekend and Watami for every other things.

To be honest, BNM mandates that all application must submit their income documents. But PBB made no mention of it. They just say bring the FD cert and IC to the holding branch for processing !

E.g. ah longs, Nigerian princes etc.

So an IC(for employee) will be more than enough.

My thoughts exactly. I do not think there is a "better" card, just which card suits your lifestyle the best. For me, Watami for insurance premiums, Wise for petrol, dining and mobile, and MBB2 AMEX for everything else including groceries, which I only do on weekends.
