in another 3-4 months time, i would able to let u know if they charge annual fee & sst on unactivated card

Any updates?

And btw I am new Affin Duo cardholder, just applied through this switch campaign. https://www.affinalways.com/en/promotions/S...TYmcmVjPTc4MQ==

I have read the t&c but quite vague. To qualify for the lifetime annual fee waiver, do I need to perform 3 retail transaction for one card only OR both cards (which means 3 transactions each)?

I did see that, but referring to the left box, I assumed 'each eligible card' refer to the 4 cards mentioned.

adoi, just do 3x each card lor, not hard to do

you dont want to risk disqualified from meeting the criteria because you're disputing on how well/bad they write the t&c lor

I am asking because now I only activated visa card. If each need to do 3x, then i activate the mastercard. sweat.gif
From the affin website, it seems like both visa and mastercard have their own separate annual fee? If so, then bobian.

Does anyone know why Affin Bank is still using OTP for transaction approval when they have the affinsecure? This is for my case, not sure if everyone is facing this as well.

hi all, does anyone know how to check MSIC code for transaction. Suspect some transaction not eligible.

I spend 3050 above for affin duo cashback card every month, but getting not even rm30 cashback, instead of rm50. Feel scammed by this bank.

Facing same issue with uob card as well.

Just list down your spend? I get RM50 every month, spend at least 1666.67 on shopee and the rest can be any spend.

Do you pay before statement generated? The actual statement balance should be RM3000, not spend RM3050 but pay before statement generated.
*
I pay after statement generated, definitely not immediately. It says my PREVIOUS BALANCE is 3067, and my NEW BALANCE is 3035 after cashback.
But the cashback I get is rm25 only.

usually you have to call to bank and ask them on the MCC code.
You can backward calculate the cashback to guess which are the unqualified transactions if your transactions are not too much.
*
For cashback, is it only ELIGIBLE transaction count towards the total minimum retail spend? Like If I spend 3050, but one transaction RM100 not eligible. Then I fail to hit above rm3k, become 2.9k, is this how it works? Hence, not entitled to Rm50 cashback.

3% Cash Back* with AFFIN DUO Visa Cash Back

e-Commerce/Online Transactions
eWallet Reloads/Transactions
Auto-Billing

as long as your transactions falls on above category, then it entitles for the 3%. RM3000 statement balance is for raising cashback cap to Rm50, if you are getting cashback rm25 not RM30, then it is not issue with cashback cap.

I see, thanks for your info. I think I realized what is going on. Some transactions are for in-store purchases after reading my statement again. Dumb dumb me.
