Bad news for OCBC Great Eastern credit card holders. Starting from 1/9/2016, no more cash back for retail spend. More info here

I also received this SMS and wanted to share it as well. However, I didn't see it mentioning about the removal of cash back for retail spend. Am I missing anything?

looks like ocbc ge cc no longer giving 1% cb starting 1/9...

OK, just checked back the SMS it mentions that rebate will be replaced.

oh luckily i was not able to apply for it. else have to change insurance auto debit again

Totally headache. This 365 card has AF but let me enjoy one year first and I will think about it again later next year or they revise benefits for this card.

I'm on call now to convert my OCBC GE Plat to 365.

Come to think of it, OCBC so kesian..their dedicated thread buried so far dy. This is latest revision, seems like they totally wanna bail out from CC market.

I guess it's because both 365 and GE Plat have almost same feature while the former has AF and opens to all. So, it's better to kill the one with free AF.

aiyooooo br mula pki 3bln..
looking for other alternative...

got charge annual fee if u are existing card holder...


**Only applicable to first time OCBC Credit Card customers and customers who last held an OCBC Credit Card more than 12 months ago.

can one get a malaysian credit card with overseas payslip ?

think they are now happy with the OCBC 360 saving account with 4.1%pa interest

CS told me mine is free AF for first year.
Nevertheless, they will call me soon for another round of verification, I can double confirm again.

Eh I couldn't apply for HL Mach as I just cancelled my Wise last month..They told me got 6 months cold down period...any cards I can use for Dining and Fashion other than Maybank Amex since it's just weekend?

Btw, just heard the bad news on UOB Vox...wei I just apply only leh..

Who says you can't apply MACH? No such rule.

You haven't got your VOX I supposed? I don't think you can apply it anymore, already stopped receiving new applications.

Dunno wo, the sales guy said since I cancelled Wise just last month so might not get free annual fee waive or apply new card from Hong Leong.

Just apply for Vox this morning...the guy said will help me try to submit but he didn't tell me that Vox is gonna be replaced with something else pun...then he asked me to submit PTPTN document...since now Vox gonna be replaced I am still thinking I wanna submit or not

I supposed you tried to apply via booth or agent? He was just lying to you lo. Just go to MACH permanent booth to apply, like in MV, Pavilion, Paradigm Mall to apply.

It doesn't matter. It won't be accepted anymore in HQ. It's only expected to be out in 2-3 months time but VOX is no longer available for new applicants. You can try though.

I tried to apply through the booth in Queensbay. Not sure where's the Mach permanent booth in Penang

I supposed you can apply in any HLB banks too. Else, just download form from online and submit via email or anything. The guy didn't want to do your business because he won't earn anything from you as you are not considered as a new HLB customer. That's why he came with that excuse.

Ah I see no wonder. Aiseh like that I apply online easier.

Now thinking of a replacement for Vox
