I did that to UOB one card, u know wat the CS say? we waived for u 2 years already this year cannot......then I say I cancel, u know wat they say? erm sir where is your location, our nearest branch to you is PJ Newtown..zzzz...ended up I brought the card to cancel and never to use UOB again...

ps. other bank cards I don't have any problems at all

I think the figure is correct. Recently retail quoted me RM120 cheaper if pay by cash, instead of installment 12 mths using MBB CC.

Actually there's no magic to it. If you are a good customer as in high spender, they will always waive. Fyi I have never paid a single cent annual fees ever in my entire tenure of using credit card, which is considerable

In that case I shouldnt take it than. My citi can is actually a backup card, which i rarely use.

hi, wanna ask bout UOB card...
my statement is issued on the 13th and due on 3rd of every month, is it same goes with all the UOB card user?
can i request to change the issued date and due date?

can but need to call customer service center...

Just called but the customer service ppl said cannot,...
wat else can I do?

I believe they have different cycle for different card type, so only alternative is to change your card type or just cancel your card & be damn with UOB

hey guys and gurls,

is it safe for me to email my documents(application form, salary slip, ic, cert, etc) over to apply for credit cards?

thanks

The banks accept email channel? I thought only fax is more acceptable.

yeah,.. they are kinda pissing me off now,..
wanna change address they asked me to write in,.. wanna extend my statement they told me cannot,.. practically i cant see the useful point of their call center...
if i wanna cancel card, need to call the call center again?
i wanna cancel my card but wanna keep the card for collection, is it possible?

yeap, the times when noboday says No has since passed If want to cancel, got to write in, everybank also the same. Yes, can keep the card but normally they will ask you to cut and send back to them

ya, they do accept.. but, anyway send it tat way b4? i worry bout the safetiness..

like fax, i tink is insecure 2 rite? they can juz use ur doc. for other purposes..

Some banks offer some sort of mailing address change form at the back of the statement. Upon filling it, you could fax to them. No need to write crappy formal letter.

Hey, did Citibank know that their website is not compatible with Firefox? I think it has been freaking long since it first happened but until now still no action has been taken! It only works with IE, which is not my 'duh' default browser.

Most commercial websites have very high compatibility with IE. This is monopoly!

Err.. I had no problem opening their website with Firefox.

@soitsuagain,
Er... Citibank Online works also with Safari *grins* If I ain't mistaken the last time I tried it on Firefox it worked too!

@ICDeadPeople,
If u want the upgrade take it - if I ain't mistaken the upgrade should come with 3 years maintenance of current fee [that would be based on ur existing Gold card] but most of us would call up the CS and ask for a waiver.

If the waiver doesn't come through then just cancel the card lor I'm pretty fed up with Citibank [damn, I keep talking about it] but I haven't had time to shift my spending to another CC *siGh* Everytime the merchant doesn't accept my Amex, I go back to Citibank - looks like I need to clear all my points once and for all then only i'll start using HSBC or something

Btw for those using MBB CCs - is it possible to use ur CC via M2U to pay for utility bills? Or must those bills be paid only via an existing Savings Account? [oK.. I know I could google for that information but since i've been quite helpful around here and work's been crazy, I figured it's time someone spoon fed me! *grins*)
