KUALA LUMPUR: Former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak had Mastercard Platinum and Visa Platinum credit cards have a combined limit of RM3 million, but he used the cards beyond the limits within six months between the months of Aug 2014 and Jan 2015.

The Visa Platinum was used, among others, to spend RM466,330.11 at a Chanel store in Honolulu, Hawaii, on Dec 22, 2014.
