QUOTE(jchong @ May 14 2008, 04:51 PM) The credit limit mainly depends on your income, not the type of card. Even my normal classic card has 15k limit. That said, to get plat card the min income requirement is quite high so you would expect the credit limit to be high also. 15k for classic? is that the amt after being upgraded for several years of use or for newly applied card?? mine was juz 5.5k for classic.. Beside the salary, I guess diff bank offers diff credit limit..

QUOTE(cute_boboi @ May 21 2008, 09:48 AM) I did twice with MBB. Both times also I hit the credit limit usage continuously every month due to company expenses. No changes in my salary, and MBB did not request for any documentations. thats more like temporary increase.. rite? or.. ist permanent?

QUOTE(ferricide @ May 21 2008, 01:53 PM) Credit increase also depends on many factors, one is prompt payment. If you have been paying on time and using regularly - you are a good customer - no reason the bank won't increase. Unless you are asking a HUGE jump over your current allowed CR, For some banks like Citibank, HSBC, other banks as well.. that could be true.. But i dun think Maybank is that generous to simply increase based on steady/prompt payment.. Perhaps if i opt for home loan or wateva products relate to loans, maybe they will consider.. O'wise, they would definitely ask for new salary slip if i wish to increase my credit limit.. A'way.. like wat tinkerbell said, wont hurt if ask..

QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ May 23 2008, 12:45 AM) Yes. It is good. The difference is that if you are using MBB AMEX credit card, you can earn 2x Treatpoints for every RM1 spent. For AMEX charge card issued by MBB, you won't earn Treatpoints but will be awarded "Membership Reward Points" instead. And you will have to pay an annual fee to enroll in American Express "Membership Reward Points" program or else there will be no point for you. Correct me if i'm wrong, doesnt AMEX charge interest the next day after u swipe the card..?? so, it keeps accumulating till the statement date.. m i rite?? dun hav any AMEX, but that was wat my frens told me..

QUOTE(pisang @ Jun 9 2008, 04:28 PM) I would like to know which bank offer lowest interest/best deal for installment payment? thank you.  some bank offers easy payment.. MBB for example.. zero interest! subject to certain minimum amount.. but not many merchants engage with this joint venture with the banks.. i guess u're looking for flex or flexible payment rate rite?

i've raised b4 about some proposal using Touch n Go for buyin petrol instead of cc..
I consider petrol is one of the consistent contributer for TP every month, coz i didnt shop that much to opt for TP.. but if petrol owner go for TnG.. then no more Maybank TP fr petrol, as well no rebates for DA..
btw, i only heard bout that fr the radio this morning.. can anyone confirm that, or is there any source i can get for reference..
