I love the Aeon and BSN credit card Balance Transfer feature which give 0% interest and no handling fee required.
Aeon up to six month while BSN can up to 36 months.
another way of EPP..

1st time with them for BHP card, bad and slow application. that was back in 2018.

since then, i believe they've improved the card application process. During MCO, their staff contacted if wanna apply card/FD/services. So, i took the opportunity to apply the VS card as backup to Quantum Visa.

now, i'm asking the staff again to add Duo cards.

I just went to the nearest branch last 2 weeks and give their assistance branch manager some lectures because of their poor queue system... 3 counters, only one serving. Another 2 act very busy. One counter took 1hr to serve one customer.

No give queue number at all and someone cut my queue. I can't accept when saw people cut my queue after long waiting bruce.gif .

After settle all. They call me the next day, told me my NRIC photocopy blur confused.gif I say I can send them the softcopy via WhatsApp so no need to take the time to visit your branch. Officer say cannot. They need to get my data from my IC.

The next day when I ready to drive, received call again say no need already. HQ accepts the 'blur' photocopy.

I'm existing Affin card holder. Recently applied another card, VS through email. First time file size was too large, so I split into several emails. Each time I get the acknowledgement message. No email reply from any officer or even acknowledgement that application is being processed. After about 2 weeks, got call and sms informing card approved.

All these was before Duo card, I think Affin will be over whelmed... haha

Staff overload. I guess they have never receive so many applications at one time.

opening a topic is easy. being a TS is another matter.

we need new member to manage a new topic; and since you're applying, how about you apply for TS role?

Some banks like the applicant having "1" instead of full "0".
They can make more money if a debtor pay late penalty and additional interest/charge, but not >="3" - NPL.

woww...got such things?
but it sound true to make money from late payment

Without earning late payment charges from users, they cannot sustain more benefits. laugh.gif

But my understanding is they keen for healthy cashflow rather than earning the late payment interest.

CIMB quite strict, UOB is known for easy approval. So if CIMB rejected you, you can only scratch your head and apply next time. If UOB rejected you, you better think what is wrong with your credit report.

What about Alliance?
I have been told the channel use for the submission could contribute the rate of success.

How to create the extra room to apply more credit cards whenever the personal total credit limit has hit the ceiling?
Possible to get the existing bank reduce the current card credit limit?
Looking for the method to apply more cards and hope the Total credit limit not the threshold to fail my application

I requested to reduce the CL for all my cards, some as low as just 5k as not using the card.

Great! never know about this.
Some bank too generous to give high CL, which not really need that much.
yeaa, 5-10k will be good for multiple cards holder.
