隔热膜的透光度

天气酷热,嫌冷气不够冷吗?想为爱车弄隔热膜,可是不知JPJ对于隔热膜透光度有什么标准?不用担心,我帮各位问了JPJ。

答复是:Windscreen (大镜) 不少过70%,后镜和侧镜不少过50%。

“不少过”其实就是指“超过”啦。大镜要透光超过70%,我想是要方便大众(尤其是警察)通过最大片的镜子看清楚司机和旁边那位乘客的样子吧!

陆路交通局建议车主在确保该商店的隔热膜符合规格之后才安装,并且向商店索取guarantee letter,以保障车主的法律权利。

安装后,请到临近的JPJ或PUSPAKOM进行镜子透光度检验。万一检验结果显示透光度不符合规格,车主有权利要求该商店把隔热膜拆下并索取退款。

若商店拒绝这么做,车主可以以该guarantee letter为证据,向消费者仲裁庭讨回公道。

CIMB/DirectAccess Cardmember's Privileges

Use your CIMB/DirectAccess credit card when you dine at Dragon-i or Canton-i restaurants, and you'll earn 20 times reward points. Wonder what this means for you? Here is some simple calculation.

From my observation, most credit cards offer a redemption of RM50 voucher using 10,000 pts.
In other words, when you swipe RM200, you get RM1.00 as a reward.

Here, 20x reward points means that you only need to swipe RM10 to claim your RM1.00 (10% return). Spend RM500 and get 10,000 pts and you get to cover the credit card tax already. However, I advise you don't swipe just to earn pts.

Direct Access Mastercard Rebates



亮点1:以前Tesco/Giant的回扣是在Visa卡,现在转去Master了。
亮点2:本来Tesco/Giant回扣是每个月的第一天5%,其余的日子则2%;现在则是每逢周末5%。Groceries Shopping本来就是周末的事!如今简直如鱼得水~

坏处是,优惠只是到3月尾,会不会延续则是未知数。

我的想法是:现在Direct Access的现金回扣优惠都集中在Mastercard,那我就可以剪掉Visa留住Master。我最担心等下它又宣布Petrol rebate转到Visa卡去。

暗锤!失策!

今天是八月一日,刚好是星期六,我可以去Giant或Tesco购物,使用direct access visa卡以享有5%现金回扣。买了一整个trolley的东西,刷了卡,脑海里突然想起“这个现金回扣好像有T&C还是有什么限制的”。马上我就拿起电话致电信用卡客服中心,客服员说每个月的第一天现金回扣只限RM4,一个月的总回扣最高只能到RM50。

我刷了将近200块,本来以为可获得200*5% = RM10.00
现在只拿到RM4.00!OMG,心痛!

如果早知道的话(我也想早知道!),我就先刷80块的货,先拿了RM4回扣,接下来RM120的杂货就用Giant卡来刷,再拿120*2%=RM2.40回扣。

哎!只是少赚,又不是亏大,算了吧!气恼只会让我的血压上升,弄坏身子可不划咧!

(注:以后如果信用卡有什么不可思议的“损野”,真的要打电话问清楚T&C)

EON BANK PARTNERS WITH GOLDEN SCREEN CINEMAS FOR THE ULTIMATE MOVIE CREDIT CARD


EON Bank Group partners with Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC), the biggest player in the cinema entertainment industry in Malaysia, to launch GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card, the first-ever co-branded credit card that ties up with a cinema.

The GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card offers numerous exclusive privileges and savings for customers wanting the ultimate movie experience at GSC.

Speaking at the launch, EON Bank Group’s Head of Consumer Banking, Mr. Michael Lor explained that the GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card synergises the brand strengths of EON Bank, GSC and Visa.

“It is more than just a credit card. It’s a lifestyle card that offers immense value to customers with double the advantage over generic credit cards. The card comes loaded with exciting exclusive privileges as well as benefits for cinemagoers, while giving access to a wide range of facilities and services offered by EON Bank and Visa’s domestic and global merchants,” said Mr Lor.

“Co-branded cards have increasingly become popular over the years and such unique partnerships go a long way in increasing customer loyalty and I firmly believe that the GSC-EON Bank Group Credit Card will bring unparallel benefits to all customers,” he said, adding that with the latest card, “EON Bank is targeting to solicit about 50,000 customers by the first year of offering the card.”

According to GSC Sdn Bhd’s Chief Executive Officer, Ms Koh Mei Lee, in 2008, GSC generated over RM200 million in sales revenue across its 23 cinema locations, out of which, over 11% was paid via credit card. “Hence, there is a lot of potential and growth opportunity for our newly launched card.”

In 2008, the movie industry’s overall admission was 42 million with GSC garnering 18 million viewers from this pool.

“With the GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card, we are reinforcing our strong commitment to continuously introduce more benefits and value adds to our loyal customers. These are to ensure that movie fans will not be deprived of great entertainment either during the good times as we celebrate with friends and family, or during tougher times, when we can retreat into the world of fantasy, action or comedy for a short respite,” added Ms Koh.

“Besides getting to watch blockbuster movies at a discounted price for our adult tickets, our customers will receive special invitations to previews, celebrity meet-up sessions for selected releases and movie launches. The card will give our customers the ultimate movie experience,” she said.

Mr. Stuart Tomlinson, country manager, Malaysia, Visa said, “We are proud to partner with EON Bank and GSC to launch the GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card in Malaysia. This launch marks our combined commitment in offering a payment card that provides real value and innovation for cardholders, from its innovative contactless capabilities, its unsurpassed acceptance at over 30 million merchants worldwide, to its savings through promotions for cardholders and especially, movie enthusiasts.”

Card Benefits

The GSC-EON Bank Visa Gold and Platinum credit cards offer permanent discounts for every normal adult ticket purchased at GSC. For every ticket purchase of above RM10, RM40 or RM50, customers will receive a discount of RM1, RM4 or RM5 off each ticket respectively. For tickets purchased below RM10, customers will receive RM0.50 discount from each normal adult ticket purchased.

The main highlight of GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card benefit is the additional 50% discounts up to RM 100 and RM 60 ‘Bonus Value’ for each approved new-to-bank GSC-EON Bank Visa principal platinum and gold credit cardholder respectively. ‘Bonus Value’ is an accumulative amount stored in the GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card to be used for GSC movie ticket purchases nationwide. In addition to this, 1 complimentary GSC ticket and 1 free small combo Set (popcorn and soft drinks) will be given to the newly approved principal GSC-EON Bank Visa credit cardholders as a limited offer extended to valued customers.

Apart from discounts on ticket purchases, cardholders are entitled to 5 pieces of ‘Buy 1 Free 1’ ticket vouchers for International Screenings.

To further enhance the movie experience with GSC, GSC-EON Bank Visa credit cardholders will enjoy a perennial offer of 5% discounts on concessionaires such as popcorns, soft drinks, hotdogs, ice-creams and many more. In order to further delight cardholders, they will receive a 10% discount on concessionaires for the first (3) months from the card approval date.

Besides the great savings from movie tickets and concessionaires discounts, GSC-EON Bank Visa credit card also offers substantial 15% discounts on GSC F&B outlets permanently, namely at Glitters Café, Paradiso, Café Caro and GSC Dessert Bar located at Pavilion KL, One Utama KL, Signature Gardens KL and Gurney Plaze, Penang.

    使用Citibank信用卡为您的预付手机加额

    一般上,很多商家都不接受使用信用卡来加额。但是,花旗银行踏出了这一步!现在,任何花旗银行信用卡用户可以通过Citibank Online或SMS来为手机加额。

    这有什么好处呢?
    1. 当你身在“不方便reload的地方”
    2. 当夜深了,外面的治安令你不敢踏出家门
    3. 最重要的就是这个——当你不够钱买reload ticket的时候,信用卡就发挥作用了!
    4. 赚取信用卡奖赏积分

    信用卡真的很可怕?

    我是个信用卡使用者。每当和没有使用信用卡的朋友谈起信用卡,他们普遍上都认为信用卡只不过是一张害人欠债累累的塑胶卡。这个说法,我是大力反对的。

    信用卡之所以会让持卡者欠债累累,其实是因为持卡者本身无节制刷卡,没有根据经济能力来买东西,抱有“买了才打算”的思想。

    有些人说,带着信用卡,会不知不觉的过度花费。这简直是荒谬!没有人拿着枪指着你的头强逼你刷卡!没有理财观念的人就会把债务归咎于信用卡。

    只要有足够的自律,信用卡不会让你多花钱,反而帮你省钱。申请什么信用卡才好?这里需要一些考量:

    1. 如何还钱

    最好选择靠近你居住范围、上班、或平日经过的银行。如果不方便到银行,唯有通过电子转账缴付卡单咯,但需要缴付额外费用(五十仙至一块不等)。

    2. 钱都花在哪里

    找找看,有没有可以帮你省钱的信用卡。现在的信用卡都流行“现金回扣”,尤其是霸级市场co brand最普遍,又或者是添油回扣。我自己本身使用着Citibank-Giant卡,每次在Giant花费都能享有2%现金回扣,其他交易则0.50%回扣。至于添油方面,我使用Direct Access万事达卡,可在全国任何一间油站享有2%现金回扣。

    报章上常看到信用卡天花乱坠的优惠广告,如果您看了有一点点心动,然后冲动,我劝您先冷静下来,把优惠的terms and conditions仔细的看一遍。确定了T&C,您到该商店时请记得再次和店员确认该优惠是否还有效。

    投资理财的其中一步,就是“钱滚钱”,信用卡不就符合了这个目的吗?

    小心有诈







    只是首10000名参赛者可获得现金回扣!


    我打电话询问card center,客服专员说银行不能透露参赛者是否在10000名以内,必须等到竞赛结束为止才公布。

    如此揾笨的伎俩,谁会受这一套?我就知道Hong Leong Bank不会酱好死给所有人现金回扣。
