Wanna ask for example if i pay HLB CC from cimbclicks, does it charge any extra fees?

It is either RM 0.11 for Interbank GIRO (IBG) transfer, or RM 0.53 for (IBFT) Instant transfer.

Citation from The Sun Daily Malaysia: “On merchants who require a minimum purchase amount before a customer can pay with a credit card or those who impose a surcharge, Tan said consumers can lodge a complaint with BNM.”

for minimum purchase amount...if really want to complain then we hv tons of places can complain, but is it worth it?

for surcharge, some places memang should not impose surcharge, some places even though impose surcharge but really benefit the customer, so take and give...
if really want to complain about surcharge also I wont complain about CC but complain about the places imposing surcharge of 10% for using TnG for payment, like carparkssss...
*
As for minimum purchases, I feel it's worth it as it is our right to pay with the available methods that is allowed by Bank Negara. Also the Director himself said that minimum amount for payment should not happen and also Bank Negara is pushing towards cashless future for Malaysia.

As for Surcharges, there's no give and take as it is a capitalist world as they would take any opportunity to suck our money for their own benefit/ profits.

No credit history also means a risk to the banks, so try applying from the bank which your salary is credited to.

Just wondering if you know if our chances of getting the card will be higher if we pledge a fixed deposit to apply for the card.

*UPDATED, sorry for the bad english in the previous one (This reply)

i turn the question the other way round: does post office accept credit card payment?

for roadtax, i prefer walk-in  biggrin.gif post office is literally accessible everywhere, be it around your house or work place or even inside mall. i can get the roadtax on-the-spot without fee or waiting time.

downside is human traffic, finding car park, etc. Well, best time to go is opening time  laugh.gif usually open 830am, just nice before 9am work.

just my preference la  sweat.gif

I've seen the PIN and PAY advertisement at a few Post Offices and that should indicate that they support card payments, but not sure of the scope of card payment acceptance.

i've also seen it too, but cant see any terminal when i was at the counter renewing roadtax.

They don't have to put the terminal where it's easily seen, it might be inside the drawer and they'll take it out for payments.

Wanna ask:

Last time when I was working in Singapore, I applied Ambank World Mastercard (Requirement: RM120k p.a.) based on my income after conversion from SGD into RM and I got it.

However after I back to Malaysia to work recently, my income is RM3k++ per month. Will ambank downgrade my World Mastercard based on my current income which is around RM36k++ p.a. ?

Thanks

Then don't update your details with the bank, they won't know. Just be a good paymaster to avoid interest.

I read somewhere in this forum, there is no way a shop can charge our purchase if we swipe our credit card right? For example, i bought RM100 good, and they said credit card will be charge 5%. Is that normal?

Other than the above, some shop does not accept purchase with credit card below RM50. Is this normal?

Thanks.

Which is the best credit card for shopping on US-based websites? I noticed transactions failed several times for certain US sites like Amazon etc using Maybank & CIMB cards. Would credit cards issued by international banks like Citibank, Standard Chartered etc be any better?

Thanks.
*
I think Citibank would be the best cause with Citibank you can view your transactions real-time and there is no 1% markup if the website allows payment in Ringgit unlike Standard Chartered.

Thanks for the information.

First, how do we disable CNP? By calling CS?

By disabling CNP,  does this means that online payment won't go through and only physical card swipe will be approved?
*
From what I have read, CNP purchases toggle only applies for websites without one time PIN authorization. Websites that support one time PIN authorization have no effect whether you turn CNP on or off.

When the merchant do settlement everyday aka posting day. Usually few days they will do it, some fast maybe same day but usually few days will be able to see it la... do note the difference between transaction date and posting date useful for cashback checking purpose
*
It depends on how fast the merchant settles the batch of transactions, the fastest is 2 days (after the day of the transaction) and the slowest is 8 days.

But banks like Citibank and Standard Chartered allow you to see them instantly but as pending transaction.

Hi guys - if i have a supplementary card from my mom, will my spending and repayment for that card be recorded under my CCRIS, CTOS or hers?

Bank told me that it will still be under my CTOS, CCRIS records even though it is a supplementary card from her.

Can someone clarify?
*
I don't know whether every bank has the same policy for supplementary cards but if you hold a Citibank supplementary card then "Strictly NO". Everything regarding on time payments and stuff will be under your mom's name not yours.

Too bad in Malaysia we cannot build credit through a Supplementary card. We need a reform in our credit card system.

Meaning to say if i supp for my partner. Then the additional card will appear in ccris system? As two cards under one bank? So let say if i apply for new loan or card will affect the decision of the bank? Is it rite? More cards higher risk?
*
My experience is with Citibank, I hold a supplementary card from my mom before and I have access to her CCRIS. My card does not appear on her CCRIS, so I assume that it is consolidated under the principal account or Citibank does not bother to list Supplementary cards under CCRIS.

I have no experience with other banks, it may differ.

I forgot to add-on, they might use it to check what are you debits/ payments/ expenditures for risk assessment.

Also, Malaysian banks suck cause they do not officially offer a Secure credit card for those who want to have a card/ build credit.

We should petition/ peaceful protest outside Bank Negara to have the feature of Secured Credit cards guaranteed and signed into law mandating that feature.
