you shd tell us, what is ur preferecen?

any particular bank u wish to have?

1 advise: since new to working, no need so hurry to get Credit Card, faster u get CC, faster u falls in the traps.

Can we cancel Shell Citibank Credit card by calling their customer care line ?
*
they mostly want you to write in to cancel it. to ensure proper cancellation procedure is being done and documentation.

u can fax in or send by mail.

@Hybz,
Was it U who said U needed/wanted a CC before U go overseas sometime mid-end of August?!  If so, I thought U'd oredi put ur application in.

Should have taken the opportunity to put in the application during the MBB TreatFair - approval apparently was granted within 3hrs.
*
no. it's officially 60 minutes approval. but due to too many applicants, it's become 60 + 30 minutes. haha.
the actual card can get within 1 week. i got mine already.

hi, which credit card offers low charges overseas transactions? thanks

edit: is it only CIMB and UOB? any no commitment free for life card from them? thanks
*
no commitment free for life? then it would be Direct Access. truly free for life.
UOB is "free for life" which is required u to commits 6 transactions per card per year. (u will getting ur Visa n Master 2 cards together, can not cancel either 1, else no "free for life") tongue.gif

Is it true? Means that only Citibank Generic Card can get the annual fee waiver and the co-brand (Shell, Giant, AA) can't be waived at all?

since u have saving account with HSBC, it's shd have no problems at all. Perhaps it's ur HR company din able to answer when the HSBC ppl call to verify.

Dear Vin Ann,

Really??? GOshhh... i rem that... HSBC ppl called to my hr dept but the director went out so she didn't able to pick up. According to the hr director's secretary, the ppl was very rude and impatient hanging off the call... And now i know its abt the cc... sobbbbb... its ok then..im trying amex.. tx anyway...  wub.gif
*
so just pray when the CC people call to ur company pray for ur HR able to give confirmation lol....

last time i recomend my colleague apply citibank through my fren who is works in citibank. at 1st his application got rejected bcoz un-able to confirm. perhaps the HR manager was not around. later my friend asked me, who is the person in charge for this, and i let her know the person in charge name.

after tht my fren got his citi CC.

so surprised just now.

a person from Standard chartered called, 1st offer me Genting vouchers which is transferable, then offer my pre-approved gold card.

so i asked her, why just simply gives out the credit card, ur did not scare me have bad record ar? she said, only selected customer is being offer this kind of card.

she said, the main purpose gives the card is for me to try. if i dun likes i can just call in and cancel it. on benefits side, she just promote on the giving free movie tickets for movie from warner brothers when they have new movie.

i thinks Standard Chartered got my information from my genting world card, which im almost forget it. sweat.gif

How is the rebate work?
Last month i have total RM3 debate but it doesn't deduct my statement.
When will it auto deduct my statement?
*
i dun thinks there is any1 here got their own Citi Giant card as most of us already existing citi CC user. it's appear less attractive to us, since no RM50 rebate vouchers.

you can go to read the terms n condition, there will be stating how's the rebate works or u can call to citiphone ask the customer service, they would like to answer ur queries.

Just wanna check ...

If I got auto debit payment from saving account , does it contribute to CCRIS or CTOS or bad record when we apply loan or cc ?

Maybe debit such as installment thing, monthly payment or whatever ..
When we dont have money in bank, they cant deduct from us ..

but will it leave bad remark like hat CC does ? cos if CC we late payment got ccris or etc
*
im blur blur reading ur post.

QUOTE(Norns @ Aug 28 2008, 10:27 AM)
What i understand is, if the bank cant debit from your account, bank will send a report to the company. And company will remind us.

Do we have the right to discontinue the auto debit from the bank directly ?

So, its confirm auto debit thingy does give contribution to CCRIS or CTOS ? unsure.gif
*
bro, at the 1st place, why u wan go for auto-debit facilities?

people go for auto-debit facilities mostly is for the auto payment of various bills at various due date. people who see it's good only will go subscribe it. if u see bad, why to make urself in the trouble.

i really got enjoy 1 good year of auto-debit for my bills. just every month pay my credit card on time. never worry anything else.

discontinue? how u subscript then same way but reverse way u un-subscript the auto-debit lol... whistling.gif

[WTapply] Credit Card
Location: Penang
As my company will sent to me Japan for about one month so i need a credit card to use the, i had 4 month pay slip (>2K), but i need urgent as i wil go soon..

Prefer can meet in Butterworth, to tell me more detail.. you can find me at tachlio@hotmail.com (MSN)

Must waive the annual fee, get within one week, anything u can msn me / PM here~

i want to apply tmr (29aug08), hope can get before next friday!! (MUST) if you unable to do, pls dont find me
*
it's advisable u go to directly Headquater of the Bank.
Citibank HQ is at jln sultan ahmad shah nearby the New Straits time there.
HSBC is the "bank street" nearby esplane lo...
OCBC there as well...

so the best way, u go to each bank above n ask the customer service, How fast u can give me ur credit card, i need it urgently. then on ur side u also need to provide sufficient document payslips 3 months and IC.

so good luck on ur survey...!
