uhh, I thought the login is universal? It is listed that the Accounts Summary should contain ALL of my accounts...so why is it not showing

Now that you mentioned it, I only did create an account for the Choice Card. And when I saw that the Shell Card was sending E-Statements as well I neglected the thing. Does that mean I need to register for a new account login? Although I am asking just out of sheer curiosity coz I'm going to axe the Shell card soon anyway

The source is actually the employees of the hotels themselves. I get the same thing for insurance, education courses and anything you can think of. As long as you are registered, the competitor for the company that you purchased the item/service from will swoop in like a vulture.

Umm...but I don't get call for credit cards. I only get letters offering this offering that and bla bla bla. And I noticed they are all pertaining to the service that I am currently subscribing to. E.g. my insurance currently is XXX then one day brand YYY sends me a letter with a supposed "better deal". But like vin_ann mentioned, recently it has become much much lesser.

And yea, I just tell them to call someone else on their list coz I'm not interested

There is no points for Citibank Shell Card. Unless you are saying if you choose normal cards you get points and if you choose Shell Card you get rebate

Hahhaahah this just made my day...never encountered such problem with my DA though

I know they get discount from Carrefour

oh no wonder the uncle and aunty was so kiasu and bought until Rm 201++ .....coz can claim RM 4 only after every 100 spent....now I know lol

I'm gonna try and pump at the Shell station near my workplace after I get off from work later. See if the rumor is true I doubt it though coz if it is true I am gonna call up Citibank to tell them to save the Shell card for their own use

Nowadays, if there is not much ppl there, I better pump full (you'll never know when things can suddenly be 'announced' . Since my tank also left 1/4 tank only. Anyway, I pumped at the Shell station near my work place and no problemo with the credit card

It seems they would enforce it today for certain stations. Not sure if it will be nationwide. Luckily I pumped yesterday full tank coz I know such 'announcements' can be made

Anyway the news can be found here: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...1421&sec=nation

Anything is fine with me unless we have to carry cold hard cash...coz that is really dumb

Time to upgrade to a bigger wallet/purse

Like that also can coin up an idea...seriously...

Don't look at me, I have a lot of RM 10 and RM 1 ringgit notes only But I do need a change of wallet though, coz my current one is kinda dilapidated

Each to his own tinker

Hahaha I will shop around for a new one soon. But need to wait n see whether credit cards would be still useful or not so I can choose how many slots for cards that is needed for my new wallet

Far from it tinkerbel. I only carry TWO cards If the credit card usage at petrol station thingee goes sour, I'm going terminate the Shell card and I would just carry the gold old DA free card

Have a good one. And yes, NRIC and license are there by default in most wallets. I never have a place for coins in my wallet since secondary school

Shell Citibank Classic
Fuel - 1.5%
Other spending - 0.5%

Shell Citibank Gold
Fuel - 2.5%
Other spending - 0.75%

These card DO NOT give out points

It is not a dumb question. And the requirements are normally minimum RM 1.5k of income (excluding OT and allowance). You normally need 3 months payslip that can proof this figure and sometimes a confirmation letter from your employer (although not mandatory)

@SnoWFisH

Citibank's sure knows how to target the market

Now economy in a bad state so MOST people would be interested in discounts and rebates rather than exclusive privileges.

Added on June 26, 2008, 11:00 amThey are just different companies Most merchants accept them both although I believe there used to be a time in Malaysia when Master was preferred. Those days are long gone I believe.

Try to apply for a card that suits your preference. Meaning, if you love to travel, you might consider Citibank AirAsia card, and if you like fine dining, you can apply HSBC's as they give pretty good discount on food. There are many others in the market...just do some surveying before you apply
