Normally 5% fixed charge when withdraw cash from ATM, followed by 15%-18% interest calculated from the date of withdrawal.
*
There's also a min fee for cash advance facility.
RM 25 min fee right?

For cash back on groceries and petrol, you may want to consider Maybank Ikhwan.

Hi Sifu! wanna ask..
let's say i want to buy stuff at machines (iphone / macbook) with ezypay 0% installment, but then the machines sure charge 4% fees for whatever reason..

the question is, can I just one shot swipe without the 0% installment plan, then later go to maybank2u to apply ezypay..  will the hacks works? the 4% fees from machines quite a lot woo ..
*
It'll become EzyPay Plus instead of EzyPay and normally it's not 0%.

There's a promo for EzyPay Plus at 3% pa ending 30/9/2020:

The default rate is at 9% pa:

Credit card spend about doubles from April to July

KUALA LUMPUR (Sept 30): The amount spent by Malaysians domestically via credit card nearly doubled to RM10.205 billion in July this year, from RM5.3 billion three months earlier in April.

Compared with the RM10.26 billion recorded in July last year, it appears that the level of credit card spending has returned to almost the same level seen before Covid-19. In contrast, local cardholders spent RM9.4 billion in July 2018, and RM8.5 billion in July 2017.

I keep getting rejected in my new credit card application
Does having alot of current credit card can contribute to being rejected? My credit score is high and my income is above the min requirement of the new cc im applying for.

Currently im having 5 credit card. Maybank2 card, public bank quantum and one others. Both of these come in 2 card and have portion that i dont really use for example non amex portion of maybank card and non online portion of public bank quantum. Hence just wondering if i close/deactivated the card that idont use that much, would it help in applying for new cc that is more useful?

Credit score is only telling one part of your story.

The other part of the story is your income which when you submit your income proof documents such as payslips, EA/BE form and/or EPF statement.

hi guys, for the below 3 cash back credit card - UOB YOLO, Affin Duo cashback VISA, PBB quantum MASTERCARD, after I read through the details, here are my understanding on how their cashback effective spending period, not sure correct or not. Can anyone help confirm my understanding is correct? thanks.


UOB YOLO: cash back based on spending in calendar month. (eg. spent on 1st ~31st Jan, will get Jan c/b quota max RM30)

Affin Duo cash back VISA: cash back based on spending in calendar month. (eg. spent on 1st ~31st Jan, will get Jan c/b max RM80)

PBB Quantum MASTERCARD: cash back based on transaction posted date as per statement cycle. (eg. let say Statement date 25th Jan, for transaction posted between 26/12 ~25/1 will get Jan c/b max RM30)
*
UOB YOLO: cash back based on spending in calendar month. (eg. spent on 1st ~31st Jan, will get Jan c/b quota max RM30)
-> But there's a FCFS pool. Cash back will be credited by mid following month (not statement date)

Affin Duo cash back VISA: cash back based on spending in calendar month. (eg. spent on 1st ~31st Jan, will get Jan c/b max RM80)
-> Should be based on statement month. Cash back will be credited back on statement date
-> Be careful on the posting date too.

Hi yall. Newbie here wanna ask. If I applied CC via online and it is already approved, how do I get the card? The bank will mail to address or I take from nearest branch?
Thanks.

It depends on your instruction given in the form during application.
But some bank insists for collection at the nearest branch for NTB cardholder.

Hey guys, totally a newbie here. Planning to get my first Credit Card, currently I have a car loan with Public Bank. If I get a Public Bank credit card will there be any benefits/perks? or do I just go with the best credit card I can get from any bank and not just Public Bank. Many thanks!

Public Bank has several good credit cards.
There's no good (best) or bad credit card.
It is back to your spending behaviour.

That's true but I'm wondering since I have a car loan with Public Bank does it make more sense to get a Public Bank credit card? or I can still look at other banks as well.

ya.. with look deeper for cash advance .
so far, some CC can topup to prepaid card (Bigpay) and using prepaid card to ATM withdraw even cheaper fee
need look again
*
True but BigPay top up to BigPay has been limited to RM 1k per month only.
Worth to pay RM 6 for RM 1k withdrawal at ATM?
Alternatively, you can do bank transfer to designated bank account with 50 sen fee.

Hi. I want to ask which bank's credit card is widely accepted for instalment besides Maybank. I have HSBC CC but only few merchants especially those big and well-known shops accept HSBC for instalment, whereas those normal or medium size shops will not accept.

Feedback for Citibank from Citibank thread:

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Nov 12 2020, 06:13 PM)
Anyone knows any PC shops in Selangor / KL offer 0% installment for Citibank CC?
Your information must be new, not last year punya info. So many shops already drop Citibank now

And the merchant list link in their website is broken sweat.gif

Hi. I recently bought a pair of Nike shoes from Nike Malaysia website. The charge on my SCB Cashback card had an extra 1%. Nike Malaysia had confirmed that they had charged the card in Ringgit for the shoe price which was also in Ringgit, and the extra 1% was not from them.

The SCB customer service indicated this is SCB normal practice because the website program (?) is outside Malaysia. Hence overseas charges of 1% is added. Has anyone experienced this issue with other bank credit cards? Extra 1% charged even for MYR transaction.

It's called cross border charge/fee.

Let say the last date to pay for CC statement is on 2nd, and billing date is on 10th. If I pay between 3rd-9th (i.e. past the due date), will kena finance charge or not?

Of course will.
If you don't pay min payment, you'll be slapped with late payment charge too.
