QUOTE(hye @ Mar 7 2009, 06:20 PM) The answer would be depending on what you want. Citibank Clear is a lifestyle card ... if you like to shop & party, can consider this card and the annual fees are applicable. MBB Petronas VISA best for Petronas petrol and free for life ... take your pick  clear card, i might shop, dine one a while.. petronas card, i would prolly get it after i got my own card.. curently just surveying around first.. wanna get the best out of it... btw.. the clear card is it a compulsory to have a grad cert ? i don't have one.. i only have a offer letter ..how? can annual fees be waived if you have clean history.. eg.. payment on time/ no outstanding...

QUOTE(yott-chan @ Mar 8 2009, 09:23 AM) 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  i see.. that's nice.. but is there a min amount to spend ?

QUOTE(den0422 @ Apr 28 2009, 09:41 AM) Guys I need help! Im an expat. I tried to get a credit card in CIMB and the lady at the counter told me something about Fixed Deposit of 5000 Malaysian Ringgits once my application has been approved. I asked her to explain to me what the fixed deposit is for but I dont think she speaks english that much:( I was hoping someone in here could explain it to me clearly. Cheers! I think most probably they're afraid u'll run off without paying your bills.. so they'll use your FD to cover.
