Hi all,

Anyone here can tell me which credit card has the fastest approval and issue speed? My friend is going overseas really soon and might need one ASAP. A credit card from overseas bank is of course preferable but speed is of the essence here.


Thanks

Have not been successful yet. If you have a DA card, you cannot apply for a CIMB Petronas. I know cause I tried. Reason given is both cards got fuel rebate. Have not tried the vanilla CIMB cards or Enrich cards yet.
Based on my experience  Direct Access from CIMB. Within a week you get your card.

Citibank can get card in 1 hour if you show up & apply at their card center at jln ampang.

Citibank just rejected my friend's application tongue.gif Reason was not clear except he never had a credit card or any financial record. But the guy told him his pay would easily pass a gold card application sweat.gif Citibank for you....

Remember the golden rule ... never trust the cc agent so quickly. They just want you to apply the card but do understand the approval lies in the cc application department hands. Citibank cc agents works on comission ... more reasons for them to be aggresive and will do anything to make you sign up.

He went to the bank itself to apply, not via some agents coz he needs it really urgently smile.gif
