a question.
i work in retail and we sell iphone. most of my customer prefer installment instead of 1 shot payment. any reason why?
*
Cash flow.

If I have that 4k to spend, If can installment for 12 months for 0% interest, I'd park the money in some FD to gain interest while paying.

because i was rejected by citibank credit card. When i tried to apply another card via imoney.com, their rep told me it is difficult to get card approved if i dont have record of repayment. my salary and statement is definitely fulfilled all the requirements, no outstanding debt, no PTPTN loan, i only have car loan that just started 4 months ago and i paid promptly every month. So i really have no idea why i got rejected.

The unwritten rule for Citibank CC is you usually need to hold another's bank card for more than 1 year to qualify.

Took me exactly 1 year for my card to reached the 12 months mark and my Citi card was approved with a pretty generous limit.

Only thing that's not so nice about Citi is hard to get AF waiver.

Back to the topic on hand, MBB 2 cards quite easy to get actually. Just submit your application at Gardens and you'll find out rather fast.

Greeting fellow sifus,

Wanted to ask, whether I can transfer my outstanding from a credit card to any of my 2 cards online or is there even such a thing?
*
You can use the BT function online but I'm not sure whether it is working or not.

Hi Frutie,

May I ask how did you upgrade your cards?. Did you call CS directly or re-apply the platinum version as a brand new card?
*
Send an email for upgrade with latest payslips.

But honestly it's pointless.

My gold card limit is 20k or so. Never bother to get it changed

Ask them to transfer for you.

Hey guys, I am flying soon to foreign countries. Do I need to call in if I were to bring my cards out?

Maybank say no need from their FB page reply but just to be safe, call and inform.

Yes, at the back of the card. Toll free 1800 for plat mbb2

What's the requirement to get Plat also?

Some banks have minimum CL to get platinum cards.

Maybank macam tarak.

Income requirement is 60k PA only.

I'm still using my ancient gold card but thinking to just get an upgrade to enable easier calling.

The 60k lor. Fyi, i reduced my CL to 10k so I think, even if there is, the min CL is low

Later I try to request.

Kenot tahan have to keep using FB to reach maybank laugh.gif

Since my CL already rather high, they should actually offer me the upgrade instead of have to self apply adoiz

15k for a 60k PA card but 20k limit on a card with income ranging from 70k to 100k PA?

Later I drop by branch and ask. Opposite of my office only laugh.gif

House mortgage? car loan?
is this your first credit card application?

For me this is my 2nd card perhaps bank need to see some kind of credit activity...i only apply for gold card because i only want the amex card tongue.gif

My card arrived yesterday but too bad im not at home to open it tongue.gif need to wait for 2 more weeks before i come back. M2U so easy can straight away change pin no & activate card. Since I applied for the card i always peeped out on any shop if they can accept amex. Not much over here in sarawak though  sad.gif candidly asked if i pay dinner at a hotel using amex they said it will include extra 4%...is tat true?
*
Tell them you work for BNM tongue.gif

See if they still insist to charge you 4% or not.

I am sure you can dispute the 4% and get a refund from the bank, just the hassle.

All this surcharges are bullshit and I've documented my journey so far on getting back the money from the banks somewhere in this subforum.

Please report them to relevant authorities to ensure they get fined or actions to be taken by financial institutions.

quick question: 5% is retail spending (swipping the card for food, grocery etc etc), but not for online right?

If you're talking about the Amex, as long as it's on the weekends, you get your cashback.

The extra charge is not transparent.

When you swipe in foreign currency, it'll incur certain forex rate + admin fee (by the bank).
The forex rate is governed by Visa International/Mastercard International/AMEX International.

Merchant usually won't charge extra.
*
Correct.

You only can extract it when you calculate your statement.

However, I noticed that CIMB's rate was rather decent even after the extra charge as it's almost as close to the exchange rate as possible.
