If use CC to pay for tyres purchase and service, it doesnt count under retail right?

Btw Im using CIMB Cash Rebate Platinum

Don't think so. Unless the tyres are sold by Tesco or other grocery retailer with is quite impossible. You can get lub oil for cb if buy under Tesco since they are selling them. Buy tyre I don't think so...

Of course it is. Entitled for 0.2% cash back.

Why it is not retail? All transactions are retail transactions just that some cards give cash back according to MCC. Your answer seems to have mixed up retail and groceries?
CIMB CR gives 0.2% cash back for all spends which don't fall under any of their cash back categories.

cimb cs agent called back. said already escalated my request to change statement date to higher level to review my case, answer: not possible to change.

i argued a "friend" with new cimb cr card can be assigned to 3rd for statement date. he asked me to give card number or NRIC to verify. obviously i cant give him to check, with or without consent la

well, not bother to nag since rarely use it after gotten UOB VOX or PBB VS.

Your Statement's Incorrect...!!!
Any Purchases of Goods or Service which is Charged to the Credit Card will treat as "Retail Transaction".

fly126 is correct.

i've used CIMB CR for the following:

1) JOMpay (insurance payment)
2) Hallmark gift shop
3) Electrical shop (bought air cooler)
4) Hair product outlet
5) Tyre shop (car battery)
6) Eu Yan Sang outlet

All gotten 0.2% Retail cashback.

may I know how to solve this problem?
I want to login and check my credit card statement.
Thank!

Their app sucks, try using browser instead?
Actually their online banking is really sucky.

Credit card statement will be sent to your email as well, you can check your inbox?

thank for your reply.
oh I see~
that's why always show the error messages...
I don't believe browser,I scare kenal hack...XD
I just got my first credit card in my life
ok nvm...I will check my email later.

Sorry. With two point six billion millions sorry. I mistakenly assume Retail=Grocery only. As in my brain when I typed just now retailer=grocery retailer. This is wrong in CIMB CB terms.

I am considering autoparts, that's the reason why I immediately think that buying tyre (one of auto parts) is not equivalently as shopping at grocery retailers aka Tesco, Jaya, 99 speedmart, KK, Aeon Big etc.

Buy tyre using CIMB CR still have the 0.2% cash back, which falls under Others retails.

Sorry for my confusion. The confusion is cleared by fruitie and fly126.

It's the same for all cards, not only CIMB CR.

nice free money good for those that salary goes into CIMB account

Not only pc, mobile apps also kena hack. If not forgotten few months ago cimb apps has been hacked.

I cant trust mobile app also. Some of the apps request so many permissions that I don't know whether it is save to use or not.

ermmm...hi all
sorry may I ask a stupid question...
yesterday I use my public bank account to pay my cimb
credit card by "IBG".
May I know what is the difference between the Instant fund transfer?
Thank.

higher charge for instant.

Yeah lucky to have CIMB savings account.

Rooted phone?

IBG = GIRO = will not be processed immediately, for weekends, it will be processed on next working day. For normal day, it has schedule when the fund will be in the other bank. RM 0.11 per transaction.

Instant transfer = IBFT = As the name suggests, it is instant, no waiting. RM 0.53 per transaction.

Not rooted, but still can't trust it... haha

Usually that only appears if using a rooted phone.

Thanks fruitie fly126 cybpsych lengzhai for the prompt response yesterday

Appreciate it!
