Zakuii 1st Gear October 13, 2007 Share October 13, 2007 Amex is the worst. I called to waive the fee. They say ok. Who knows few months later I used the card, found out they cancelled it instead. No more amex for me. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swift 1st Gear October 13, 2007 Share October 13, 2007 Got a friend who used to work in Amex card department. He told me this, "If you need a fee waiver, Amex is not for you"...... Apparently business is quite good for them.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbonetics 2nd Gear October 13, 2007 Share October 13, 2007 Hi, kind of sick of calling the credit card company every year to ask for a waiver and threaten to cancel. Also, I can never charge enough $$$ to get the automatic waiver for the year. Recently applied for ABN-AMRO which is free forever, but it's MASTER card. Is there any credit card that is VISA and have many years or forever fees waiver? just carry 2-3 cards will do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ncss Clutched October 14, 2007 Share October 14, 2007 okay... Another way but not sure if you can affort... If you become a Premier, Privilege or Treasures member of the bank, usually your cards related to the bank are waiver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panorama Neutral Newbie October 14, 2007 Share October 14, 2007 amex not acceptable in many shops mainly because they charge higher commissions. visa is still the most widely accepted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluemice 2nd Gear October 14, 2007 Share October 14, 2007 i hv used them reg, but not enuf to get free waiver , as their "gifts" are not attractive enuf... not like OCBC( free 5000 pts if spend xx $) or UOB( 2x or 5x extra pts).... so after 1 or 2 yrs of waiver, they also sian me too, so i just decided to cut the pain and make my wallet thinner mice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha78 6th Gear August 12, 2015 Share August 12, 2015 seems like the banks are starting to play hardball nowadays .... my sis could not get a waiver for her SCB card so she will take this opportunity to cancel it. at the same time, i also received an sms from DBS telling me my request for waiver is rejected ... just called them and cancelled two cards !! DBS reject waiver? This is new. They were one of the earliest to use phone options for waiver, and after 5 seconds of holding the line, you get a confirmation. And I have always managed to get a waiver without fail. Don't want to waive? Just cancel the card, wait for 6 months and apply again when they have freebies. Redeemed 2 luggage cases with HSBC recently, even though I cancelled all my HSBC cards about 2 years back. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
