Why no longer have access. I received my card last 2 month and I used it 3 weeks ago.

Nope they didn't allow free ppl access when I was in Langkawi 6 weeks ago.

The free access should have been removed last year.

Greetings all,

I have been using Debit Card all these while. Now looking for a credit card for better security. I might not need the best savings (eg: apply 2 cards, use Card A for Petrol and change to Card B for online billing), I am prefer to stick with one card for transactions.

Thank you for your recommendations.

CIMB Cash Rebate card, no fee charged, but giving cashbacks (online, groceries,etc). Good card for all general purpose use.

Just saw HSBC offering 25k air Asia points when applying selected HSBC credit cards and spending accumulated 1k spending within 60 days from the date of Welcome letter :

Question is whether can I get this promo and the Rm300 Lazada voucher promo at the same time? Lol

It will be either one.

value wise, the AA points seems to be better.
already got confirmation on the reward from a forumer - https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=83403302

I will feel CIMB CR is a better generic card minus dining expenses. Not specific for this case.
*
Reason for recommending MACH is, it can be custom selected for the additional category you want in addition to the base package. Especially with the dining category which is likely to be utilized by everyone.

Hi All,

I'm planning to sign up for  AmBank Visa Platinum mainly for the PPL access.
However, i would like to clarify something about the TnC.

In ringgitplus website, they mentioned that the PPL access comes with TnC as below (3 swips overseas required):

"All you got to do is swipe your AmBank Visa Platinum overseas while you're travelling at least 3 times and a free access to 17 international airports premium lounges will yours. There's a little catch to it, all 3 swipes must be made within 30 days before or after your visit to the lounge and the free access will also expire within 30 days from your first swipe."
However, by referring to ambank website, it seems that there are no TnC for the access.
Appreciate clarification from forumers smile.gif

Follow the bank's website TnC.

Hi

1. Annual Income: RM36K to RM50K.

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Yes (preferably).

3. Card required for: (in terms of priority) 1. Petrol, Cash Back/Rebate, Groceries; 2. Online Shopping/Utilities/Mobile/Dining; 3.Others/Entertainment/Departmental Stores.

4. Existing credit cards (if any): CIMB Cash Rebate Platinum MasterCard; Maybankard 2 Gold Cards.

5. Interested in CC from: All banks

I'm looking at the Maybank Islamic MasterCard Ikhwan Gold Card atm. Is there any other card that I should be aware of? Appreciate the responses.

Also I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask, will the credit card application be subjected to my DSR/CCRIS records? I have been paying my credit cards bills and all other relevant loans in full, but I'm worried that due to my very high DSR I'll not be able to be successful in my cc application. I just wish to get another card to fit my requirements so that I can maximise my savings.

I was just scrolling through reading some info and found this which caught my attention.

Do you mean if we pay TNB and water bill using 2Amex via M2U on weekends can get 5% CB ?

What about Astro, TM, Telco (Celcom, Maxis, etc) ?

My Petronas Ikhwan just got approved and after reading this, somehow I'm regretting didn't ask here first.

technically, anything that accepts your Amex card 2 payment on weekend are subjected to 5% cashback.

Well, I should have applied this instead.

Is it possible to apply for M2Cards despite just got approved for Ikhwan ?

As long as your credit is in favor, I don't see why not.
If you are around KL/Selangor, walk in to the card center, you probably can get the card on the spot after 1 hour. I did it that way.

comparing MBB vs Ambank VI, Ambank offers no condition FREE annual fee and unlimited PPL access across a few other countries as well.

Maybank doesn't really have a card suitable for you for daily use. However Maybankard2 Amex+Visa/Master offers cashback on Saturday and Sunday.

You can also try to look at,

Public Bank - Quantum Visa/Master dual cards
CIMB Bank - Cash Rebate mastercard

For foreigner, more documentations is required.
