What do you guys pay via credit card most of the time?
*
Petrol
Food & Beverages
Magazines
Shopping
Air tickets
Bus tickets

Do you all settle the outstanding at once or by paying the minimum payment each time?
*
Full payment everytime.... not recommended to have credit card debts. If you cannot pay in full, means that you should have control your spending.

1. Lower Interest Rate
The quantum of interest rate charged for repayments have been reduced to a minimum of 15% to a maximum of 18% a year. The interest rate charged will be determined based on the customer's previous 12 month's repayment period from the implementation date as follows:

Conditions*
Repayment Months/Total 12 months
Interest Rate Charged on Outstanding Payment

Per Month
Per Annum

For prompt** repayment of 12 / 12 months
1.25%
15%

For prompt repayment of 10 / 12 months
1.42%
17%

For prompt repayment less than 10 /12 months
1.5%
18%

* Payment is tracked over a 12 consecutive month period
** You have paid your minimum payment amount on or before your due date.

i also got received snail mail from HSBC...
*
All banks are doing this now.... trying to "reward" those that pay their minimum amount promptly

After CIMB took over DA customer service, the quality went down. Few times my calls were unanswered.

Loan payment also works the same way. Just write your loan account number behind the cheque

For CIMB Petronas Mastercard,

RM2500 x 2% = RM50 lah... unless you use fuel >RM2500 per month, you are not affected.

RM2500 of fuel (@RM1.92/liter) equals to 1300 liters.
Each car average tank is approx 50 liters.
You can fill up each day for 26 times in a month smile.gif
Maybe you stay in JB and work in Penang will cause such high consumption biggrin.gif
