hi bosses, any advise for this bye.gif

Try Citibank.
Last time when I was working in SG, they gave me 6-digits CL.
But terminated the cards when I returned to KL as they didn't want to waive the RM6xx AF.

Aim for the premium cards like Platinum, Premier, Signature, etc as long as your annual income is more than the min requirement

Previously my Citi CL is 10x my MBB CL

Affin-BHP MC or MBB Ikhwan Visa Petronas for their 10% and 8% CB during the weekend if refuel at BHP or Petronas respectively.
Both capped at RM50/month so should not be an issue if your spending average is RM400-500/monthly

1. Annual Income: RM30K to RM36K

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Must

3. Card required for: List all your needs. Petrol (<RM 200/month), Online Shopping, Groceries, Misc. Actually i mainly just want to use credit card to build good credit score, i.e. buy stuff online, pay back everything by end of month.

4. Existing credit cards (if any): Nil.

5. Interested in CC from: No idea

6. Others: Fresh Grad, just started working 5 months ago. Interested to build CCRIS and CTOS score to obtain high range score in the credit rating system.

Also wanna ask, if I am able to buy things online in volume, say RM50k per month and somehow able to sell them online without profit. I use the money to pay off the credit card at the end of the month, will i get good credit score for my prompt payments?

Try applying CC from the banks where your salaries are banked-in.
Without any credit record, sometimes hard to get CC approved.

Cannnn,
Approved or not, different story tongue.gif

When I was working in SG in the early 2000, I had Malaysian CC from HSBC, Citibank and UOB.
Not sure about the requirement now, but previously foreign-based banks are not as stringent as local bank

1. Annual Income: RM36K

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Yes or minimum swipes

3. Card required for: Mainly for petrol & online purchase

4. Existing credit cards: Non

5. Interested in CC from: Any banks that offer such card.

6. Others: Just started hire purchase and no record on CTOS.

Tried PB Quantum & HSBC Amanah and got rejected. Is thinking about Maybank Islamic MasterCard Ikhwan Gold Card or Maybank Islamic Petronas. Monthly petrol expenses less than rm450 and  shopping/ dining less than rm300. Please advice.

If you don't mind sticking to a single petrol brand, can try Affin-BHP MC or MBB Islamic Petronas.
So far these 2 have the highest CB rate with no minimum spending (10% weekend, 2% weekdays for Affin and 8% w/e, 1% w/d for MBB).
With you monthly petrol expenses <Rm450, you won't hit the RM50/mth CB cap

I dont mind sticking to a single petrol brand. BHP is out as we do not have BHP here lol.

I guess i will go with MBB Islamic Petronas. Can non malay apply?

You can also consider MBB Ikhwan MC, as it gives 5% CB or Fri & Sat for any petrol brand.
Anybody can apply as the term "Islamic" here refers that the fees/charges/etc imposed by the banks are Syariah-compliance

What type of benefits are you looking for with the Islamic card?
Honestly, I cancelled my HSBC Amanah coz there are nothing special with it.
I prefers my MBB Ikhwan Visa Petronas anytime over the Amanah.

Fresh graduate looking for First CC recommendation happy.gif

1. Annual Income: RM36k

2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: Yes

3. Card required for: Petrol (although can claim from company), Bills, Groceries, Hire Purchase loan

4. Existing credit cards (if any): Nil, but recently approved by HSBC (but macam not very good 0.2% cashback & got the annual RM25 charge from gov right?)

5. Interested in CC from: Any.
*
For petrol, can try MBB Islamic MC/Visa.
The RM25 SST is chargeable for every card and it paid is to the government, so banks cannot waive this charge.
What they can do is refund RM25 as rebate but it is up to their discretion.

If you have no credit history, I suggest you apply from the bank where your monthly salary is being credited to for better chances of approval
