additional info - if autopay express, all accept amex (even tnb).

but if paid at kiosk, only visa and master accepted.

while pay at counter, here in kajang, only digi accept it. maxis and celcom didnt.

where do u mean?

if at petrol station, AFAIK they wont accept credit card, only cash.
the terminal is only for paying petrol and their store/mini-market things.

I think someone mentioned that AMEX is also accepted at Maxis KLCC just a few days ago.

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.

good for people staying near to klcc.

if not, are u willing to go to klcc just to pay maxis bill?
the rebate can cover ur travelling cost? petrol+toll+parking?

All Maxis Centre can accept Amex. Not only KLCC.
I paid my Maxis bill in Maxis TTDI using the Kiosk

NO! Maxis Bangi didnt!
just confirmed it on yesterday (30-Jan). only Visa/MC accepted there

Nope. Not even the T&G centre at KL Sentral.

Of course not going there just to pay your Maxis bill. That'd be real stupid

What is the different in term of benefits for Maybank 2 Platinum and Gold Card?
I checked their website, both have same 5x for Amex, and 5% at weekend. Their have same benefits except the requirement.
I have been with MBB CC for 5yrs but my CL still 5k. If I apply by phone i guess i will not get Platinum, unless i re-submit again my supporting documents.

I just posted an srticle on free Access to KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge at my blog.

You can also get the same info from the first page of this thread basically. My article just expand more on each card benefits and conditions.

To read more about Free Access to KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge, click here.

already being answered before

plat have more benefits than gold, such as Travel Insurance Coverage, Retail Protection, and Complimentary golf.

but, maybe u no need that ~

finally my ocbc titanium got approved:
- applied online on monday 17th jan
- got rejected on 20th jan
- appeal & submit supporting docs on 26th jan
- 30th jan receive sms from ocbc saying approved

now planning the best time to 'convert' amex gold to maybank2 amex. still got 15% cashback & BT havent clear yet.

hey guys, i wonder if i can use my new Maybankard 2 gold to spend on my insurance or not. still can get 5X treat points?

Not likely as insurance companies do not accept Amex.

Some forumers have mentioned that income can comprise more than just basic salary - if you can show rental income etc like MilesAndMore which collectively add up to the minimum income required, your application may be approved at the discretion of the bank. Even if you qualify like in the case of Gen-X's spouse, your application may still be declined. As hye has correctly pointed out before, ultimately the discretion lies with the bank.

Pleased to inform that I telephoned AMEX CS this morning (31.1.2011) and was informed that my application (by telephone on 19.1.2011 initially and submission of further documents by email on 21.1.2011) for Maybankard 2 Platinum has been approved. Credit limit as well as same billing cycle with my current AMEX Gold CC maintained.

BTW, I submitted additional documentary proof of income in the form of bonus payment voucher to qualify for the Platinum card - the purchase protection plan would be useful :]

Asked CS as to whether it would be possible to collect the cards today if I went to Maybank HQ personally instead of couriering it to my office - her reply was that as it was just approved, they would require some time to churn out the card. Today (31.1.2011) and Wednesday (2.1.2011) too short a time and Monday (7.2.2011) is the expected as well as earliest possible date - was hoping to use it on Saturday (5.2.2011) to max out Weekend 5% cash rebate PLUS additional 15% AMEX cashback campaign on top of the basic 5x TreatsPoints. Forgot to obtain CS' confirmation if this would indeed be the case but not important anyway as I expect to max out the 15% cashback tomorrow (1.2.2011). Otherwise, this would be the ultimate kiasu-ness!

how about MAA? confirm they are not accepting AMEX?

Gen-X,

1. Alliance Debit Platinum also can access plaza lounge.
2. RHB Plat did give annual fee waiver - with a total minimum card spend of RM36,000 per annum.
3. Others than EON Matta Plat, EON Plat series of GSC, INGIAFAM, MRCA, and The Store & Pacific also can access plaza lounge (max entries are 500 klia / 100 changi, shared all of them), annual fee waived if swipe 3x/month for a year.
