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  tongue.gif

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...

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 tongue.gif

i see..
that's nice..
but is there a min amount to spend ?

if your salary deposit in maybank, should be easier to approve.. because they have in-house record how much you earned every month..

ouh... like that ah... doesn't matter even after 1 day..my salary all gone from the account? lol

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.
