I have a go to search on the SST for CC - correct me if I'm wrong, according to the statement below, we will be charged SST whether we activate or not right?

https://www.mysst.customs.gov.my/assets/doc...arge%20Card.pdf

16. Service tax shall be imposed on the date of issuance or renewal of the credit card or charge card or on every twelve months after the date the card is issued or renewed.

(i) New card issued with a validity period for 1 year Service tax shall be imposed on the date the card is issued

7th September - Affin CC personnel came to my office for thumbprint verification
23rd September - Check from IVR said it is approved, now waiting to receive the card

I think bank has the control on it.
I experienced with HSBC, the SST only charge once you activated the card.

I remember I had both Visa and MasterCard from Affin many years ago, I never activated both cards and the cards got expired for activation and card accounts got terminated after a few months. So if Duo MasterCard is not activated after a few months, will Duo Visa be deactivated automatically when Duo MasterCard get expired for activation?

I think so. I have a RHB card that I don't want to activate, so far no SST charged. It's been more than a month since I received.

finally received my cards today =D
yeah!

sst days?

maybank 3 months.

Pre-SST(2010)

wow that's very long time ago. I'd imagine the SOP has already changed now.

i'll do the experiment..
won't be activating the rewards card..
will see how it goes..

Another experiment...
6 months later if not activated, will Duo MasterCard account go disappeared, ie terminated by system automatically?
If Duo MasterCard is terminated by the system automatically, will Duo Visa be still functioning well?

received a call from 03 20285400, and asked for my ic lol
quicky hang up but he call again

but that's from affin. why u hang up?

I thought you hv received your card?

i think is the bank side call to confirm if you had perform certain trx? Got called by this no as well after i reload BP.

well, can always hear out why he needs ur IC etc before hanging up or so. as long as u do not give out ur TAC. lol

haha, i browsing the webpage which listening to him, din think so much at that time haha

Actually I think it's not. Someone here mentioned that they received a call from the bank on their first transaction. Not uncommon.

for me, the person called for verification during application process.
