that is not possible for RM1 now..
previously someone reported to BNM but still no result..

Very stubborn ha Ambank almost all local bank can set trigger amount to rm1.

Well let's see. I have a bone to pick with ambank

Just wanna ask, if I apply CC with Ambank, how long will the application gets approve?

Through branch 1 month plus plus. If call 0321788888 status already approve it took 1 week to reach our mailing address.

So what is the minimum amount for transaction alert now?

500

Wow... totally forgot to pay my card last month. Only remember after a day late. No grace period. RM19 late payment charges. Even then, I was sleepy and only pay minimum. Incurred another RM33 interest charge.

Really pain... but I accepted it was my fault. Luckily it was a CARZ and the petrol rebate somewhat saved me. RM22 petrol cash back is not bad at all. Usually only get RM8 or so.

Yours Carz Islamic or conventional? Platinum right?

Got Islamic one? Not sure... its a Plat though.

One day shouldn't be charged with interest. I think the RM 19 is the interest from paying minimum?

One day is when I do the online transfer. I checked and it seem only got through 2 days later. I would have go and bank in had I not messed up the payment. I thought I owe RM96 only so think at most RM5 or 10. I only realized that I was paying minimum when I login to ambank to check again. Luckily I didn't spent much on the card last month. Nvm... one tonkatsu double prawn more than make up for the losses. Still a worthy card.

I have paid late before for AmBank, also forgot and wasn't charged with any interest. I think two days as well.
At least all is OK now.

carz card is 5% for all petrol station on everyday right?

Yes for platinum and previous month can't pay in full need to leave rm5 and above.

huh? need to leave rm5 for previous month when I applied this card I never heard about this tnc..
it means that if I just started to use it this month, then I won't get the 5% rebate for it?

No leave I think get 2%

I am still not really understand how CARZ works, let say i pay partial or minimum amount, i will get to enjoy thr 5% rebate, but at the meantime, i will also get charged by the minimum payment interest charges right?

Finally got my new platinum card!

Applied the card via email on 2 March 2017; got approved on 8 March 2017; collected the card at branch on 14 March 2017.

However, I don't received the hard copy booklet containing the B1F1 vouchers. Called to customer service and the agent said will help me to get the VIP code for the B1F1 app instead.

The word "platinum" above the mastercard logo is very hard to see (shown in attached picture below; circled in orange color). If you don't purposely look for the word, it's hard to believe it's a platinum card. In other words, not able to show off.

This card is quite shinny though.

BTW, I notice that this thread is not as hot as other thread e.g. Maybank, Citibank, UOB etc. Is it because Ambank cards are difficult to get, or less people use Ambank cards?

Where to check the application status?
I saw a thread before, but forgot where is it.
