No charge for receiving SMS but for calls once you pick up, roaming charges apply.

So long your roaming is turned on, no need to worry about TAC and OTP. I never have issue paying my bills from overseas. biggrin.gif

sometime , it will have problem / delay to receive sms as it may caused by local service provider problem or the original provider problem

Guys if I need to free up my balance credit limit for next purchase, do I just make payment to the card like usual?

Example credit limit left 2k, wanna swipe for 3k goods, pay the card 1k then can swipe again?

what do u want to swipe? buy online? can try to swipe whether can get successful or not.
Maybank allow some buffer for over limit.
U may call to Maybank to check.

Should be kind of ready because overseas cards can be swiped here and insert PIN.

No only hardware need to support, need to change setting or software (driver / firmware/ program) to prompt pin no for malaysia cc.

Looking other countries like Singapore or US, the benefits either got retain or improved but us going down the drain faster than water.

Which countries have 5% or 10% cash rebate when swipe with credit card?
I do not agree as Malaysia have consider have many cash back when swipe credit card.

But it is bank negara enforce tbank to reduce the charge on credit card to merchant which make bank cannot earn much.
So, bank have to reduce the cash back / benefit in order to gain.

Bank negara trying to encourge more merchanct to accept credit card and make the more transaction can be done via credit card by forcing bank to reduce the charge to merhant from 2/3/5% to lower.

Example, now we can see mcdonald is 1 of the example offer credit card payment which we normally just pay as less as RM10 for 1 meal. So, hope more merchant can accept credit card in near future. who know mamak or food court , food stall with accept card in 1 day.

This is very common is many country which all transaction done via electronic instead of cash.

You should explore on what the big boys are getting. While it may not be 10% cashback like the HLB wise (which needs micro managing & also off topic since we are talking about MBB dwindling benefits), 1.5% onwards is not uncommon. Just look at our neighbour down south as a start.

I always never believe BNM related excuses; just look at the credit card interest as most banks already reverted to 17.5% or worse 18%. Although there may be directives off & on, but it died down after awhile and banks use this whenever it is being advantages to them.

Higher credit card acceptance at reduced credit card holders' benefits? The statement itself does not makes sense (our credit card holders' penetration pale in comparison with countries mentioned previously) unless it is a screwed up proposal by our politicians, just like the RM 50 credit card service tax.

U see from different angle. Those countries start with may be no cash bash and slowly provide some benefit or discount..

But, our here is different start will big cash rebate and reduce to only giving 5X point or 1X point. But it is still better if u comapre on it.


Based to the reason on the purpose of credit card is make ppl convenient instead of carry many cash.
The cash rebate or point is just a bonus.
