Maybank Amex Credit Card is 2x TP for ALL transactions, including petrol.

Edit: Podium finish, bronze medal.  tongue.gif

I think for petrol, better use CC that come with 2% cash rebate or 5x point, rather than 2x point.

True, I'm using MBB Petronas Visa and Petronas fuel for 5x TP. If it ends, I'm going back to Amex CC + Esso/Mobil + Smiles points.
Now MBB Petronas Visa and Petronas fuel for 5x TP is forever.

Not that I'm aware of any HSBC CC free for life, unless you have some home loan or big deposits there for their premier/platinum member.
The best I got from HSBC is earlier this year 5 yrs free waiver offer. But their points are not ever-green.

I manage to get 5 yrs free waiver as well after I threatened them to cancel my card. smile.gif

Hi guys, if i have 6k to do balance transfer.... which bank has better offer?

I was told Public bank give good deal but a month back ambank got promotion like 3k get a phone, 6k get lcd tv......

can anyone let me know which bank has it? i try to look around in queensbay last week and found nothing.

If you have newly approved Credit Card then normally they give 1 time 0% interest with only small upfront fee.

Other than that, if you can settle your debt in 3 months time, I would suggest Bank Islam Platinum Mastercard. They offer 0% balance transfer with only RM6.20 upfront fee but you have to settle in 3 months. This is permanent feature of this card.

If someone hold 6 or more cc from other issuer, PB will straight away reject the person application.
If u apply PB before u have 6 cc from other issuer, chance to approve will be higher. Get this info from one of the PB branch manager.
Anyway PB cc very strict on approval. Myself also have issue with PB cc, the only cc issuer that denied my cc application in my life.
*
Still did not manage to get Platinum Card from Public Bank. I manage to upgrade my PB gold card to platinum last month although I have 6 CC in my keeping.

Hi GHz,
I think ur situation not same with me, u already hold PB card and it is an upgrade instead of new application.
My PB plat cc application thru the PB branch manager which he wrote a letter to PB card centre head regarding the problem I m facing still under process. Already about 2 months, call their CS they only can see it,s still under process.
Hope they can reply me soon......

Even my request of Amex plat charge card are approved recently but PB denied me 2 times before. rclxub.gif

Agree, completely different situation. Wish you good luck.

PBB can pay any bills using credit card.

Yes, PBB can pay any bills using their credit card through their online banking but remember that no point or cash rebate will be given when you pay bills.

Yes it is true you won't get any point or cash rebate when pay bills by using Public Bank Credit Card through PBeBank.com. I do that a couple of time last year.

Alternatively, you can use your Citibank's credit card / Online banking to pay for your utility bills. It is a very funny system coz if you only have a savings/current account with them, you can't use the bill payment facility.

And yes, you will get points for your credit card by paying bills online.
*
For those who do not have any Citibank Credit card like me, you can use service such as payonline.com.my. With this I am using Alliance Bank Credit Card & I am getting cash rebate with this option. biggrin.gif

Hmmm, very funny. It different with my PB Gold mastercard. Maybe because yours is co-branded, it have different terms.

Good to Alliance Bank cc in payonline, but TNB is not in there. Are the payments through online considered as retail purchases?
*
Yes, you gain cash rebate with this transaction. smile.gif

QUOTE(hye @ Mar 12 2009, 07:20 AM)
Yes ... I used them myself. The only downside to payonline is its limited payee and UOB hasn'e been growing their payee list aggresively despite being around for years. (I think around 7-8 years if I'm not mistaken)
*
It is true that very limited number of payee, but for me only TNB & Syabas missing from all the bill that I need to pay.

Other problem with payonline is that their system is not 100% working. I experience that some transaction made through Mastercard SecureCode does not go through. When I call them they admit that their system having some compatibility problem with some banks in regards with MasterCard SecureCode. The card that experience problem is Public Bank Mastercard. Alliance Bank VISA with Verified by Visa works perfectly.

Anyody knows why if we are holding a Direct Access card, will not be able to apply for a generic CIMB card but yet for a co-branded card like the Cimb Petronas is ok? Very puzzling indeed. tongue.gif
*
I am experiencing similar incident before. I am holding DA cards & applying for generic CC. The CC center told me that they can give me the card but with low credit limit (classic card only) due to my insufficient yearly income to have both card with high credit limit. This is due to DA & CIMB cards cannot share credit limit as they are different entity.

Same thing happen again when I want to apply their Islamic CC.

Maybe different case for you.

One more thing, HSBC CS called me to counteroffer as I wanted to cancel their card. They gave me an unconditional 5 years annual fee waiver ! (I think someone here also got this offer) I'm usually not a fan of keeping cards which I don't use ... so I'm still pondering whether to keep the card or still cancel it. Any opinions ?

Yes I also received unconditional 5 years annual fee waiver after threaten them to cancel my card. smile.gif
