"Happy Holiday! Just for U,get 10% rebate up to RM50 (per customer per month) on every RM100 spent with your HSBC credit card. Valid 1Dec08-28Feb09. T&C apply."

I call up their CS, & confirm that was true.

Need more info on my credit card interest. I never bother to check or understand it previously sweat.gif

My understanding for finance charges is cash withdrawal & overdue payment.

Let's put a scenario I have spent RM1000 on cash withdrawal & spend RM1500 for others. Assume that my total outstanding stated on Dec statement is RM2500. The min payment would be 5% = RM75
Example I pay only RM800 and bring forward the remaining to Jan 09.
This mean I carry forward RM1700

How about the finance charge ?

1.5% on my RM1700 ?
how about the cash withdrawal ?

let say I spend another RM500 on Jan 09, and I make another payment for Jam09 statement, will the payment deduct for my December outstanding first ? Meaning the payment will deduct my cash withdraw & rm1700 for Dec, and if got extra then only carry to Jan 09

Sorry quite blur on the calculation

notworthy.gif

cash withdrawal RM1,000 will have addtional fee of RM50 = RM1,050.

from the movement u withdrawal RM1,000+ ur advance fee of RM1,050 interest is counting the movement u took money off the ATM. it's 1.8% or 1.5% dairly depending which category u in.

after ur cash advance, u spend another RM1,500. the RM1,500 will be interest free for 20days, provided u do not have any outstanding balance or have paid the minimum amount of previous statement.

on repayment, it's shd be the repay the 1st withdrawal or spending. in your case, ur RM800 is paid of the cash advance portion. but waits, i might wrong. the above is only my assumption on 1st in 1st out.

the bank might play the opposite way, 1st in last out. if like that, bank is earning big bucks.

Good luck mate!

CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE, tht's what best for!!

Previously, I heard that you can attach your CIMB CC to your existing CIMBClicks.

But recently, I heard that you no longer able to do so. Meaning need to create another username for your CIMB CC.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

They are still there but maybe selectively as the hit rate for the malls could be lower. (Everyone just chasing possible applicants but not necessarily can get quality applicants) Not sure which malls are you referring to but I'm referring to just MidValley and 1Utama.

I personally would stay clear of Aeon JJ cc coz of bad experience. Imagine my payment gone missing and when I provide them with proof of payment, they refuse to recognise it. Had to pay again to safeguard my good credit history and I cancelled the card immediately after the payment was received. Heard the same experience with a few of my friends. I don't tolerate bad CS and this one just sets the record for being the worst of them all.  shakehead.gif

but now AEON CC got 2% cash rebate for the Jusco purchases, n also dun know how many times of rewards points.

it's going to be more creative. yet the Customer service part, i thinks is handled by the VADS, the outsourced call centre for TM NUt too...

tht's why our hye got the peanut when he complain.

it's advisable to follow hye's advise! else we will be the monkey asking more peanut!

today, my colleague called to HSBC CS to ask for annual fees waiver.

guess what, the 1st sentence she shot to the CS is: "im waited 6 minutes 28second only got people answered my call".

beside she asking for the annual fees waiver, she also want to ask for the waiver of finance charges for late payment. She said, im going to pay all the outstanding clear today and you better waive my finance charges, else i will cancel your card.

dun know whether she managed to ask for waiver o tht o not.

She also complaining that, her HSBC Amanah CC also rejected 1st time, only second attempt she got it.

that day, sunday, i went to One Utama HSBC and applied the Amanah CC.
if smooth, expected can get my card within 3 weeks time.

wired thing is, the Customer service requested my highest credit limits CC and if got existing HSBC CC will get better chances to get approved.

but i can sense that, im going to get rejected, since i have "quite" a number of CC. sweat.gif

At the CDM, just select the option to pay for credit card, then it will give you a choice to either enter the card number or insert your card for automatic card number entry. If you insert your card at the start, of course it'll ask you to enter your PIN.

Take the time to read the on-screen instructions or if the option you tried doesn't work, why not try the other option instead?
*
can enter card 1 ar? i never notice it.

anyways, now doesnt need to bother... as im already stop using UOB... now waiting free time to cancel it. haha

How about cash rebate at Carrefour? Extended too?

yesterday when i was in Carrefour planning to buy some normal routine stock, i saw MBB CC counter there and i asked them whether the Carrefour cash rebate will be extended before go to buy n pay using MBB CC.

the promoter said, most likely MBB will be extend, just that memo not yet out... sweat.gif sweat.gif

later, i saw they all using Carrefour cash rebate as part of their strategy to attract customer.


@Chester

im also got that Starbucks complimentary when im applied the HSBC Amanah "Generic" card. they din called it gold or classic o whatever, but "generic".

after tht, im asked the CS, beside the starbucks voucher, do your have any FREE Gift. then he replied said that islamic banking did not encourage free gift practice.

@All

just now saw my professional magazine, Direct Access 2% cash rebate is still keep on going. Horey!!

Hi Reventon,
I got my Amex plat cc by invitation & free AF for 1st year from MBB.
Before I accept I ask about the following years AF, the CS told be can be waived if the cc active in usage.
Hmmm...... How can they told different info to customers.
If really cant waive I will cancel this cc coz feel being cheated. mad.gif

it's common thing among CS.

CS A tell is 1.
CS B tell is 2.
CS C tell is 1.

then it's confirm 1 is correct. doh.gif

so u try to call 2 times see whether u will get the same answer o not... only call 3rd time if 1st 2 call got different answer.

The Citibank CC agent @ officer that call me up inform me that Citibank limit is stand alone and not like other banks. He told me that if you have 14k limit for CIMB that means your limit only 7k for Visa and the other 7K is for mastercard. But the funny thing is I had already canceled my Visa with CIMB and the limit is still at 14k. So can somebody explain this to me. I am worried if go for travel overseas and I can't use my card up to the actual limit.

i thinks the Citibank CC agent is try to BLUFF you lo... make his bank looks good, while others ugly.

i have my Direct access Visa n Master for combined limits of RM8k. so i cancelled my Visa, and my CL still is 8K. it's like what cenduku mention lo....
