I'm having HSBC Visa. Actually last time I've applied once for DA Platinum (IIRC, for its life time 0 annual fee), at least that's what the agent told me. When I get my card, it was a classic. Straight away throw into dustbin.  doh.gif

Wait a minute, DA only have 2 type of cards which is Gold and Platinum. What do you mean when you got a Classic card ?

Er... And what's the difference between Mastercard and World Mastercard? I never really noticed till it was mentioned *shrugs*

Also, Amex is a charge card so it shouldn't be compared with a Credit Card *smiles*

Emm ... can't find a definite difference between the both. I think what's makes it unique it's because it's coupled together with HSBC Premier service. Otherwise the only difference would be the perceived higher class status.

I also found out that there is such thing called the World Elite Mastercard which is supposedly one class above the World Mastercard.

The highest for VISA (at least in Malaysia) if I'm not mistaken would be VISA Infinite - currently offered by RHB Bank only. In the US, VISA Signature seems to be the highest card for a VISA - it's differentiated by a "VISA Signature" band across the front of the card in addition to the VISA logo.

One day if everyone holds a Platinum card, the next stage would be these cards which is (hopefully) the banks will defends it's exclusivity and not everyone will be able to get one.

Ah, my bad. I guess it's Gold then. Felt like being cheated so I decided not to contribute to the sales person's payroll. laugh.gif

@hye,
I guess I would have googled it if U didn't [except I'm stuck in a meeting]. Next question, don't U need to work? tongue.gif

@bysquashy,
Applying for a Platinum doesn't necessarily mean U'll get it. If u don't, they'll just downgrade u to the next one *smiles*

@bysquashy,
You're so mean. I haven't cancelled my HSBC card cause I didn't want the salesperson to lose his commission

The thing is I've asked him, with my pay (then) can I get Platinum? He said Yes.

As for you, since you have goals, you need action plan nod.gif
