QUOTE(Medufsaid @ Sep 25 2025, 10:18 AM) contestchris i think it won't matter as you'll still get charged annual debit card fees otherwise, it'll be a good loophole right? order debit card but don't activate. don't get charged and yet enjoy good forex rates With credit cards, the first annual fee / service tax is only charged at card activation. I wonder if the same will apply. It might be a loophole, it's been 4 days and they still didn't charge it, meanwhile I've already done my transaction.

QUOTE(contestchris @ Sep 23 2025, 01:51 PM) I have done it. In at 4.212 (RM3,001.50), out at 4.184 (RM2,981.10). Lost RM19.95. Hopefully gain back at least triple. I seem to be missing something here. Why would you buy and then sell?
