Be prepared to be told that they don't have Amex card terminal so please try other card. This is very likely to happen.
The TMPoint & TNB in my hometown cannot swipe Amex but only Visa/MC. Even the PayOnline also accepts only Visa/MC. The solution is use Autopay (which triggered a debate whether Autopay is retail trxn onot).

I see. Like that ar.. can totally 'die heart' already lor! LOL.
Guys, pls just stick to OCBC Ti for utilities payment. 5X TP plus 5% cashback hopeless already..

Too bad my Streamyx is combo with Celcom broadband not Voice Deal, otherwise I can switch to BB deals.
The mascot pair in front of HSBC HQ must have been blessing them. Haha.
Will SCB take back VI should the deposit amt falls below 250K later?

Heard several members here have got approved but yet to receive the cards. Sabar...i'm sure they'll share with us soon.

The T&C is confusing, or is my English bad? :Swt.
The Principal cardmember in the bracket has left many question marks amongst potential applicants. Even though the CS told that weekend cashback is shared by principal & supp, we still cannot trust entirely. (no point asking CS actually, haha)
however, if the supp card applicant meets requirement, better go for Principal Card.

Wah, that story you also know. I never heard of that.
How did you know all this?

My suggestion is, instead of cash advance which incur a fee & relatively high interest charge, better use HLB Balance Transfer which enable crediting the fund into any C/A or S/A specified by you. And the interest is much lower compared to standard finance charge.
If you have HLB deposit account, can process even faster.
It can be done over the phone. Just call card centre.

You're so knowledgeable
I gotta find out why they chose lion not tiger. Lol

Never heard of any gst waiver for DA. You must pay or redeem pts. Don't expect DA will give u free pts.

I'm afraid you can't check pts online.
Pls go to CIMB website --> Rewards & Redemption, there's a hotline number there, they can check the latest updated pts for you.

Can't imagine if any bank use Crocodile as their logo, ahaha..Bank Buaya.. LOL
Btw, seldom see bank using animal as logo, ie. Maybank. Who's next?

Did anyone notice a sentence in MBB homepage saying "Maybank to aim 20% growth in card base" something like that?
Guess MBB already started the war with this Maybankard2.

Is it swipe RM3K "within 6 months" or "for 6 months"? Very big difference yo..

Got my OCBC Ti's 3% Internet banking Rebate (Oct-Dec) too, however the amount does not tally with my calculation.
Based on 3% from all my OCBC online trxns, I should get RM39.27, but OCBC gave me RM50.39.
If based on 5%, still not tally as well, because 5% cashback should be RM65.44.

wah, I am so envious.
Why did I receive just little more than 3%, why not 5-6%

The must-get cards as of 30-1-2011 are Maybankard 2 Amex and OCBC Titanium Mastercard.
You may want to make a change

At Sushi King, if he used to dine on weekends, the Amex's 7.5% (total return%) doesn't lose much to UOB.
At GSC as well, if he watch movie on weekends, 7.5% is even better than UOB's 5%.
For petrol, on weekends, 7.5% better than OCBC's 5%.

All in all, it depends on how much Kei18kun spends on these merchants then only can work out a solution.

Sorry for mistake.
I don't watch movies, so not sure about payment method.
If u really are so into movies, better apply CIMB Visa Platinum, free 1 ticket everyday at GSC. I'm sure the savings from this promotion can cover the GST for the additional card.

Whatever card it is...as long as you're happy with UOB, you may stick to it.
We (I) just try to suggest alternative only

Hopefully MBB put more effort in increasing acceptance of AmEx nationwide. As the bank with the most branches, they can do very well if they want to.
