best is CUT the gold card...  thumbup.gif
Citi always did!! it's normal, else it's wont be Citibank...  sweat.gif

pls beware that, the Zing Card, every time reload RM100 will charge RM2.00 when ur Zing card balance falls under RM50.

harlow, i am thinking to get one credit card due to my nature of work. since i just join this company about one month and i need to travel a lot in the future, maybe. so i want a credit card just to use for the outstation which means only for work or company purposes. i dun need it for personal purposes.

i am consider about cimb direct access. is it suitable for me?

what if i dont need to travel let say for a year so i dun need to use it, is there any charges, interest or what so ever, or is there any requirement to swept at least once per year?... i dun want to be charges when im not using the credit card.(remember this is only for cimb direct access)
thanks to credit card expert.... in advance..
*
hmm... okay kot. am using direct access. as far as the interest goes, it's 18% per annum, or 1.5% per month. swipe once per year... perhaps.

if your nature of work requires a lot of traveling, i think there are better cards out there. but if you're looking at the most lenient pre-requisite, direct access ftw lor ^_-

at de moment, cimb DA does fit you.. Especially if you're a univ graduate.. free for life with no min swipe requirements.. n high CL (for me 8k is pretty high), .. but dont get too tempted or u might ended having too much debt.. plus, petrol rebates.. 

u may juz browse this topic for more info.. i'm sure all de feedback n infos available are very much sufficient..

i got 6k only ._.
gonna ask to increase to 8k later next month

It's happening again.

18-Oct. BNM rate 6.1108. DA rate 6.102
28-Oct. BNM rate 5.5856. DA rate 5.56
11-Nov. BNM rate 5.6031. DA rate 5.621

As you can see, only the last conversion rate is normal, aka above the wholesale rate. And only marked up by 200 base point whereas bank normal marked up by 400 to 500 base point.

It seems it's actually cheaper to use DA credit card than buying GBP bank draft. I simply couldn't figure it why.
