MBB Petronas card is one of the hottest credit card in town and this led to long queues. Actually there's no such thing as card upgrading - it's as good as you applying for an additional card and then you still need to cancel off the old card.

BTW ... you didn't say where and how did you apply for the card. I sent my application to the bank directly (I went to the bank) and it still took me a good 1 month plus (about so) before my card arrives.

My friend ... I think you need to add in clarity to your questions further. I read your question a few times and although I think I know what you mean ... I'm worried I may get the translation wrong.

I've been contacted by Citibank personnel recommending me a Citibank Gold Card..it it good?..if it's good which gold card should i choose (Plain/Air Asia..etc)...i already have MBB Gold Visa Petronas..i don't mind having another one just in case...they said free for first 2 years and on 3 year onwards must swipe at least 2 times a month to avoid charges..

@jep,
Am surprised Citibank tells U that U need to swipe more than 2x a month to get annual fees waived cause they told me it's not possible to tell me as that's in the future and no one can tell the future [what absurdity!]

I can't say I've had much problems with my Citibank Credit Card [it did fail me once when I was in Australia but that was probably in Y2003].  I did have some drama with them last couple of weeks but ah well, other than that it's quite alright.

Having said that, I'm looking at moving onto MBB except I don't have an existing MBB credit card and am a little too lazy to get it applied online.

Well...in a sense...it does not make sense haha...but the main reason for me to consider it is that..i might be doing a lot of travelling overseas in a coming months...so..HSBC vs Citibank...hmmm
