What did you buy utilising your whole CL? You have added another XXX to your portfolio instead of VLC only? tongue.gif

You should plan your purchase so that you can fully enjoy the maximum cash back.
If RM150 isn't a big deal, the RM50 service tax should be as small as a peanut, right? biggrin.gif

The big hotels in Singapore all accept AMEX such as Grand Hyatt, Meritus Mandarin, Sheraton Towers, Hilton, Crowne Plaza Changi, Swissôtel etc.

QUOTE(winner @ Nov 19 2009, 03:07 PM)
They do not accept Amex at all, or they prefer VISA/MC? These are 2 different scenarios. I thought Amex is widely accepted in Singapore, including all 4 and 5-star hotels.

they do accept Amex, but prefer Visa & Master over Amex.

Indeed they do. And American Express collaboration with Singapore Airlines also helps a lot.
What if you insist to pay them in AMEX ? Are they going to charge you extra ?

i have not gone to that extreme yet.

next time will try.

on my last weekend trip to Penang, i pumped full petrol in KL for about RM34.

then when we reached at Taiping, i pumped again for RM30.

on the next day, MBB Amex called me to verify on the 2 petrol expenses i done in 1 night.

but on my way back to KL, i pumped another RM30 in highway and another RM34 in KL and until today i did not get any call from MBB Amex.

haha

how do we know if the merchant accept AMEX?

because i go pay my apartment bill just now, the reception girl dont know it.. she even asked me back, tak sama dengan visa/master kah?

well, seeing her naive eyesight, i gave up, i just gave her my visa card.
but i see her credit card machine is maybank one wo.. so, could i assume, all maybank credit card machine accept AMEX?

RM4m shared by RM150/person/mth, so they will be 26666 person need to spend rm1k each month in klang valley who is carrying amex. i also guess it will be ended by the end of dec, i planning to buy another rm1k jusco voucher but i dare not bet on it in the coming january...... sleep.gif""
*
i thinks this is not the way to looks at it.

it shd be based on the 1st RM4m spend by every1.... (waits, is it RM4m for 4 months? 1 month RM1m?)

some spend more, some spend less...

and the cash rebate is capped at RM150 max per person per month.

Example:

lets say the Amex usage is reached RM999,999 on 25th for the month, RM1 for the next spender, and then on 26th onwards, those who spend will not yet any cash rebate...

correct me if im wrong!

if every1 is rushing for 15% cash back, the best timing to spend is beginning of the month!!!

Yea, tried a few TnG Reload center and all doesn't accept AMEX, only Visa/Master..
If HLB should accept right? Cause HLB also offer AMEX CC right?  hmm.gif

Try to reload at the big shell station. If possible Big shell station nearby highway i.e Shell Jln Duta Toll...
Others shell good luck!

They accept Amex and accept reload TnG via credit card (which include Amex)

QUOTE(David83 @ Apr 3 2010, 10:39 AM)
It depends whether the merchant wants to enable AMEX in the terminal.

Like TESCO, they're using CIMB terminal but CIMB has no association with AMEX.

Technical problems occurred on most Amex cards on 14 Aug. Most of the transactions done on 14 Aug were double charged. I was informed Amex is rectifying the problems. You may check your unbilled transactions online now.

QUOTE(azfaz @ Aug 16 2010, 11:45 AM)
As per update from winner.

Transactions on 14AUG will appear as double...

Called up AMEX and they will rectify this. Just check again after few days.

i just called the hotline number and spoke to the CS named Michelle, she said the transaction will be reversed in 3 working days automatically, customers do not need to do anything

My 2 Amex transactions on Sat also appeared as 4 transactions, double-charge. I was planning to call Maybank, luckily I saw the postings here first.

My Amex also being double charged on 14 Aug transaction! its was my petrol expenses.

When i called the CS, the CS asked me to go back to the petrol station and ask them to reverse the transaction.

So based on the reply above, shd i go back to the petrol station or waits for few more days?
