If you're referring to the time-limited 15% cash back from AMEX, here's the site you can get the details:

Thanks for the links. It says AMEX card enjoys the 15% cash back until 28-feb-2011, so all AMEX cards(credit, charge, platinum, gold, pantai, maybankard 2) enjoy such benefits?

I din feel comfortable to provide both side of cc, haha...

I dont feel safe applying cc using email, as the scanned documents (ic and cc) in email can be rechanneled easily and reproduced clearly if they fall into the wrong hands. Fax copies which is not very clear would be better in my opinion.
May be I am being paranoid especially after watching those internet-related movies

True if you just scan your IC straight off. Good to be kiasu as far as IC is concern, don't want later find out somebody took a loan with your IC.

Nowadays with 3 in 1 printer that print, scan and copy, first make copy of you IC in black and white. You have the option to set the quality of the print. Then crossed the IC with words like Maybank CC Application Only. Same thing with your CC but this time also blank out the CCV. Then only scan and sent the doc via email.
*
Good Idea GenX. Maybe will do just that.

I have never applied cc thru Agent even with the free gifts. Just do not want to take the risk in case of unscrupulus agent.

SCB Platinum card-"Free unlimited asscess to KLIA Premium Plaza Lounge". Could anybody elaborate more on this term? Is it mean that the refreshment (food & drink) is provide   free of charge for unlimited usage for any one day?   rclxub.gif

Call the lounge and they say it is for two hours free access only. After that it is chargable. And there is no discounted charges for kids.


Hope they will add this benefit into the Maybankard 2 Amex like their other Amex cards.

For MBB 2 Amex card:

Did somebody mentioned that the supplementary card holder do not enjoy cash rebate and treatpoints?

Supplementary cards must be issued in pair just like the principle cards and being charged rm25/card ?

Benefits for the Maybankard 2 Platinum and Gold are the same?

Only differences are the credit limits?

Call MBB cs on MBB 2 Cards and this was what they said:

GST for the 2 supplementary cards is Rm25x2.

Cards can not be used for free access to Premium Lounge at KLIA or LCCT.

Cash rebate from retail transactions exclude those done online.

Call Maybank telemarketing at 58914777 and this was what the guy said:
GST for the 2 supplementary cards is only Rm25.
Cash rebate from retail transactions INCLUDE those done online.
Actually the more you try to find out from the horse's mouth, the more contradicting it becomes.
BO-CHAI-KANG (wasted effort).
Can apply by phone thru this tel by giving info thru phone, and faxing them your ic and existing cc (front).

Like someone here mentioned, need to wait for the statement to know the right info.
Anyone got the MBB2 Cards yet?

It may be easier to apply thru the phone if you are a current MBB card holder. But for 1st time card application, better fill in the form and fax over to avoid errors which may haunt you later on. By filling up the form yourself, the possibility of an error is less. If you read the AMEX thread, I did mentioned that luckily I followed up with my application which was done over the phone where a problem did materialize.
*
By filling up the form you need to supply them BE form, payslips and ic.

By phone, only need to fax them ic and existing CC (non-MBB).

Nowadays it is standard for the industry that when applying for a credit card, one no longer needs to give any documenttion to proof income if you have another credit card that is more than a year old.

For my case, as a current MBB card holder, I apply over the phone without needing to fax over any documentation. i.e. no need IC and cards too.

I have a UOB PREFERED PLATINUM (since 2009) which I HARDLY USE. Could that be used as a reference to apply for the MBB 2 Platinum cards?

I am thinking of applying the MBB2 Platinum but my regular annual salary is RM51200 & bonus rm4300 and other tax-exempt income > RM30k. I might not qualify if based on my BE form and salary slips.

all banks will check your CCRIS report and or other reports and will make their own conclusion.  I blur on your statement, you have annual income RM51200+RM4300 > RM30000 for MBB 2  Gold, so why cannot qualify?

From my posting I already stated clearly:

I am thinking of applying MBB2 Platinum which requires annual salary of RM60K to be shown in BE which cannot include tax-exempted income.

My salary is RM51200+4300= RM55500 which is < RM60k and is stated in BE form.
The other tax-exempt income of >RM30k does not reflect in BE form.

What you can do now is accept the fact that you do not fulfill MBB2 Plat card's requirement. The only way is Give Up the Plat and go for Gold.

I have posted this:

Thats why I am seeking advice here as to whether I can apply MBB2Plat using this.

If you have a UOB Preferred Plat with the words Privilege Banking embosed on the card then maybe something to shout about. Else Preferred Plat is just normal plat.

The point I am stating once again is what's important is your credit history. I don't see any problems you getting a plat MBB 2 as long as your credit history is good or your CL for the Preferred Plat (which you keep stressing) is less than RM10K (**Edited** or less than RM20K).
*
FYI, I have the normal UOB Platinum. I am not stressing or shouting about owning this card, just want to be specific becos there is another UOB Privilege Platinum. I thought by being specific, someone nice here would give more accurate advice. And UOB Pref Plat keep on appearing becos I copy & paste, lazy to type.

So I need to have CL < rm10K (or <rm20K) to have a better chance of getting the card (or u err should be '>')? I thought the higher the CL the better the chance. My CL is rm30K (pls I am not bragging just stated the fact, in case u bombard me again) so I dont qualify?

follow this:

1. usually if apply new card with current >1 year card, new card will follow the type of the current card.

example u applying using plat card, possibility u will also get plat card~

2. CL had nothing to do with a chance to get a new card.

When I said normal, I meant UOB Prefered Plat which is nothing to SHOUT about compare with UOB Privilege Platinum. Did I ever mention UOB ONE Platinum in any of my post?

1. Pls tell me, UOB ONE PLat and Prefered Plat are considered the same type?
UOB Prefered Plat same type as MBB2Plat?

2. I am merely asking whether he made a mistake with "<" or ">" when talk about the CL of 10K & 20K.

This reply was done before u edited it.

People in here help willingly and I can't believe the tone that you are using.
If you think your CL is sufficient then go ahead and try. While the folks here can give you an indication of what the answer is the final say is the banks. If you are not happy with the answer then next time don't bother asking the folks in here for help. Check the answer yourself via the banks websites and waste your time calling the bank's CS. This is better than wasting precious time of the good folks in here.

If you think owning UOB Privilege Platinum is a big deal then ..... you really need to take a reality check.

For those who give advice without being sarcastic I really appreciated it. Becos some of us are new here, junoir you know? And for the tone, it was in response to the reply before it was edited.

For those not willing to give advice, pls dont. Sarcastic advice are not welcome, constructive one are.
For those who think it is wasting time, nobody ask you to response.
I never thought UOB PrefereD Plat is big deal, I am just being specific why some people just dont understand.

You were being sarcastic earlier but I just ignore it  But now you have did it again.

It has nothing to do with being junior or senior, its about Rules and Regulations. Please do read it and don't post in CAPITALS.

Anyway, good luck to you.
