One piece of advise, from my experience, places to avoid are Chinese/ Seafood restaurant which serves alcohol ! Franchised restaurant on the other hand, are the most reliable.

Which topic? Available in lowyat forum?
I rmb searching through also, we can call the customer service and check the MCC code after we swipe our card? But thst will be troublesome.

Thanks for the advice!

try PBB VS topic Post #2

1) hi, wanna ask does paying bills online with wise card can consider for the 10x swipe requirement?

2) paying UNIFI bill is under which category for rebates?

1) any ≥RM50 transactions will do.


2) Unifi is not under any category eligible for cashback.

3) supp WISE card.. what is the annual fees?
4) supp WISE card.. can join the 10x ($RM50) swipe requirement with principal?

Read these:

HLB Wise | Fees & Charges / Product Disclosure Sheet | Terms & Conditions | Frequently Asked Questions

For PBB - [MCC: 5812, 5813, 5814]
For HLbank - MCC: 5811, 5812, 5814

But no harm, it is a good reference.

Just walk into any branch and ask for temporary pin, it's free and on the spot u can register for Connect

hahaha...
from my personal experience, it might not be as easy as that..

got the hlb wise card last year or so, registered online portal and everything. 2 months later, i forgotten my password for online, attempt to retrieve/reset password online, was asked about the cc pin.

as i never wanted to use cc for advance cash, i never bother with letters for cc pin. so i tot i've lost the pin letter.

proceed to call CS on what need to be done. he/she said can only be done at branch to retrieve new pin. i accepted that. proceed to branch at brickfield on what to do, they direct me to call to CS on the spot, which i did again, even though i told them i called CS before coming. then the pinball began.

desk officer say should be done by CS, CS said must be done by branch. ding ding dong dong, waste my 1hour plus office hour/lunch break.

i asked for branch manager, and the desk officer go in and say thats what the branch manager said so also. i was so frus that i wanted to cancel the card straight.

at the end, i go back to my home and thankful that the pin letter is still with me. and proceed to do the online reset password.

topkek customer service as a whole

the pin given was for temporary use, can't use it for cash withdrawal, but anyway I don't think HLBB offer the best customer service either..

How do you apply last time? Agent or Branch?

If agent, they able to check for you.

I requested for the ATM pin through CS (last week). She said they will mail me the pin within 7 working days. No mention of additional charges.


Anyone has experience paying Umobile bill? Paying through Umobile selfcare website will work right?

no issues using Wise on umobile selfcare portal to pay bills.

payment recognised as Mobile category.

one thing to note: posting date sometimes takes 2-4 days. be careful if pay on last week of the month.

I apply in the hq. Just told me to reapply if still interested after 6 months which make me wander what is the point of reapplying again after 6 months whereby wasting my time if what does it make a difference after 6 month.

Guys I have a question. Does the supplementary card contributes to the requirement of 10 usage per month and 50 bucks per transaction?

yes

How about the supplementary GSC card?
Does it contribute to the 12x swipes annually to waive the annual fees for GSC gold card?
