im having my dinner (buffet) at pyramid tower/hotel last nite....

d cashier told me..if i pay wit citibank credit card, there is 30% discount.

the bill is rm598, i paid wit credit card....after discount is rm418++....

really saves alots....
btw,

any got standard chartered credit card here? i was at bangkok last month but not sure why...i cannot use at there..its declined...but my HSBC card can use..

anyone experience tis?

Sure. I am currently using VISA and MASTERCARD from Public Bank, MASTERCARD from CIMB and AmBank.

All the cards are free for life absolutely without any condition, except for Public Bank. As long as I am a Public Mutual unitholder, my Public Bank credit cards are free without any condition.

My Public Bank credit cards offer cash rebate although it is not a huge amount. CIMB gives me 2 % cash rebate if I go to Petronas.

So far, their staffs are quite polite especially AmBank in SS2, Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

If you want higher cash rebate for every petrol station in Malaysia, you can try applying RHB Travel Money credit card. It gives 5 % cash rebate for every first Saturday and Sunday of a month, then 2 % for the rest of the days of the month. The promotion is until the end of this June, if I am not mistaken. But bear in mind, RHB service is very bad. I mean the attitude of the staffs. Why am I using its credit card? I just want to enjoy the cash rebate. After promotion period, I will cancel it without hesitation.

Hope my little advice helps you.

Woah, interest with 5% Petrol Cash rebate

Maybe you have to call standard chartered to inform them before you go for travel,
I have no problems with my card when I was in Bangkok.
But I had call them regarding I will go Thailand during when to when.

nope...not min 50 bucks fuels...any amount is ok entitled for 2% rebate...max rebate can get is 50 bucks...

Don't be surprise, there is another product (I have mentioned it in V6) which gives 7% rebate for petrol purchases. It is a debit card product so I won't discuss it here.

That is exactly my practice.    Actually, you should do this for all your cards when you travel - you don't want to be stuck in a foreign country with no way to pay your bills.

That 7% thing,if i not mistaken the promotion is over already. Standard Chartered right?

i'm using clear card cc. no, it's not compulsory to have grad cert. only >=18k p.a salary, 3 month's payslip, kwsp statement, and ic
annual fees can be waived for 2 years, if you use it 3 times every 45 days.

but after 2 years, i think you can always call the citibank to waive your annual fees

Look like CIMB Mastercard free for life credit card better than Citybank Choice credit card.
CIMB Mastercard free for life without any condition, but Citybank Choice credit card want to swap minimum 24 times per year then only got free for life.
Correct me if i were wrong.
By the way, looking for free for life credit card because seldom use, main is use for petrol transtation, any suggestion here, just one credit card is enough

But according to this url,http://www.standardchartered.com.my/cb/deposit/pump-and-save/index.html , the 7% rebate promotion ended 31/12/2008, start jan i stop using this card to pump fuel,not sure promotion still on or not. Wanna try pump 1 time see whether promotion still on or not.

CIMB Petronas Mastercard is free for life absolutely without any condition. When you pump petrol using it at Petronas, you get 2 % cash rebate.

One of my friends told me that Direct Access credit card offers 2 % cash rebate for every petrol station in Malaysia. I am not sure whether the credit card is free for life without any condition. You can try to apply for it.

Ya, just google CIMB bank website, seen a lot of free for life credit card provided by CIMB bank
By the way Direct Access credit card provided by which bank?

DA is free for life and DA is part of CIMB group
