I live in New Zealand was not able to download Grab app/add credit card (it was one of these actions can't quite remember which) as Grab does not operate locally. However, when I arrived in Philippines I could easily set Grab up and used successfully.

I just remember your post as I was trying to set up Grab on my phone and then experienced a problem. I had no problem downloading the Grab app from the Google Play Store. I'm assuming there's only one Grab app. I looked at the screenshots and it had Singapore on it so I'm pretty sure it's the right one. I had trouble adding both my Chase and Citi credit cards to the app. It keep saying that Visas and MasterCards are not supported. I was like, that's crazy. No effing way that could be true. So I guess I gotta arrive in KL and once the app connects to the internet, then I'll be able to add my cards and use the app?
