Please look @ the 1st post which the folks here have prepared for questions like yourself.
My personal input is that ... you sounded like never use credit card overseas/online before. Just use, spend and don't worry too much. The bank rate is not going to be too far off from the money changer.

There's no such thing as you are able to calculate accurately as it depends as to when the merchant will post the transaction to the bank. Note this is not necessarily the same as the transaction date.

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

Just a question about Direct Access. Is there anyway that we can view our points online? I normally have to rely on the monthly bank statements to view this info.

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.

Thanks for quick reply.
Really kind of sad that have to call customer service. Sometimes a little lazy.

Because lion is the king of all animal kind


You will never get the exact exchange rate.

banks will generally add a additional x% of admin charge to it anyway.

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?

so the Amex Plat does not hv the word plat huh

nope.. one thing i noticed the expiry month is following my current amex gold card..

ic. do let us know if you see any GST come next month statement
i assume you didn't ask MBB to convert your AMEX Gold CC to maybankard 2

actually i did ask, but the officer said cannot...shrughs..

congrats, the must have cards OCBC Titanum and Maybankard 2 Amex. Won't called it 3 mustakeers as the Maybakard 2 Visa is like a substitute, one injured then only take the other card place, haha

hehe, that's y i'm still waiting to apply
wanted the master instead of visa

oh i just checked my ocbc titanium, i got some cash back as following ...this should be the extra 3% rebate for paying bills online...guess i didnt get the extra 2%..although they sent me the email

yes yes, both also very prestigious. get both and you will get twice the prestige, twice the stares and twice the ladies swooning over you and going ooooh ... ahhhh. definitely must get both otherwise shy lar if take out the card to flash and it is NOT visa infinite or worldcard, malu only! only classy people use visa infinite or worldcard.

I have cancel my plan to get MBB2 Amex... sigh...

My bro who was using AMEX CC told me AMEX acceptance is quite low. Besides I wanna wait n see if any of the banks gonna launch something after CNY.

Good news for Maybankard 2 holder...
