Good luck.
Hope you won't get surprise when cards arrive tongue.gif (include cards that you didn't apply)

Have any1 made rough calculations on how much 1TP is worth? Most of the RM100 vouchers need +-20k TPs?
*
I don't expect 10000pts=RM50 no more.
No doubt, in the future, the points required to redeem RM50 will continue to rise. 11k, 11.5k, 12k...and so on...
However, I think 10000pts=principal card GST will remain.

Treatpoints is not "that" bad

I am not quite interested in vouchers. I want CASH.
The only thing I like TP is the point redemption fair at SenQ, it is indeed very attractive.

If not mistaken, SenQ conversion rate for TP is RM1 = 190TP

the redemption fair at Senq that I mentioned was not kind of "Pay With Points", but "Redeem electrical appliances with lower points than usual".

Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but got confirmation from Maybank via email.

Supplementary cardholder for Maybankard 2 pays RM50 for the 2 cards.

like that ar...

ah, one more thing, in the website there says RM50 weekend rebates (Principal cardholder). That sounds like only Principal Card earns weekend rebate.

Maybank Site updated today

http://www.maybank2u.com.my/mbb_info/m2u/p.../PRO-Promotions

Note: 1 million payout for month of January 2011 has been achieved.
The roadshow sales did say the Maybankard 2 amex is eligible for 15% promo, I guess the best way to find out is try registering the card number via SMS.
*
Card sales nowadays are not as trustful as before.
yes, the best way is to EXPERIENCE IT.

ya lah, I also confuse wheather Supp entitled to the 5% cash back or not. Since I kiasu, also got my wife to apply for her own Maybankard 2 Cards.

It is better to apply own Principal card!
Given that one must pay RM25 for EACH supp card, which sums up to be RM50. It is already the price of a new Principal card. I support your decision smile.gif

Based on many comments from Amex cardmembers here, it sounds to me Amex Msia is a poorly managed cc service and often take many months to credit cashback/pts to cardmembers. Feel nervous, coz I will also be an Amex cardmember soon.

Glad to hear that major pharmacies accept Amex. However, their price of medicines are not cheap at all, even after minus 7.5% equivalent cashback using Amex. I buy a lot of medicines every month, I found a pharmacy in Dataran Sunway which MCC code falls in 5% cashback category, and its price is very very competitive. For example, Plavix 1 blister RM97. I bet you can't get this price anywhere else.

While we consider the Amex cashback, sometimes need to survey prices at different places also. No point buying RM300 with Amex 15% cashback, but sold RM250 at Chinese medicine shop. One example was when I bought an Omron blood pressure meter, selling price was like RM270 - RM300 in Jusco, Guardian, Caring, but I got the exact same model at RM199 from a pharmacy in Taman Megah.

This is what I want to say too. I don't understand why you repeated my meaning using another scenario.

Just got a mail from Maybank with a note inside saying that I am pre-selected for Maybankard 2 cards.

Then inside it shows that I get 10k Treatspoints and Platinum cards was ticked.

All I need to do is write my name and my Maybank / American Express charge card number and sign.

Anyone got this? Do you get the 10k points automatically if you apply via this mail?

What are you waiting for? Quickly sign & fax the form.
This is the most generous offer from Maybank regarding MBB2.

I am also learning. This is first time I own Amex card. What is the purpose of the four digit number on the right side of the card?
