At least 1 month later after the month of swipe.

Just to share, around 21st Jan, I called in the CS tel number provided by a forummer here (hye/gen-X/or another, forgot, sorry).    to apply for MBB-2-CC , as I'm lazy to submit/fax docs again, since I hold both Amex Gold credit card and Petronas Visa.

The lady is nice, I explain and she says will check and call back. Within <10 minutes, she calls back and says alright, can submit into system (yeahoo!  )

As usual, no response or in M2u online, and from the forums here, some who applied later than me, already got their cards approved. So last week 31/1, I called again and the same lady picked up. I asked the status and she says nothing yet, so I ask her to expedite, she says will raise it up.

Last week during CNY, both cards are listed in M2u online    Now waiting delivery.

Therefore, conclusion is, apply through phone without submit docs works (for existing MBB CC), but it takes longer time and may need you to follow up.

Any MBB CC counters at malls around kl? Looking for freebies! LOL

If you spot any please inform!

yes there are different teams, even the Amex Plat and Amex Gold have different teams. But I noticed MBB CS have been improving since I got my first MBB card in 2009. And if not mistaken lauyaumonk mentioned some Amex CS have been assigned to MBB. Lauyaumonk, if you drop by, do enlighten us on this.
no point crying over spilled milk. The fact is MBB Dua Amex much much better than AMEX Gold CC. The earlier you get MBB 2, the earlier you benefit from it. MBB 2 gives you cash back on weekend which can offset the GST and also just spend RM2,000 with MBB 2 and you have enough points to offset GST.

1. If you had not used the Amex Gold after they charged the GST, you can get it waived via a cancellation.
2. 10000TP is for signing up 3 AutoPay billers.

my Jan cash back was finally received yesterday - 18/03, and they even gave me the extra one cent as opposed to round down to the nearest ringgit

wrote them an email last week and it got resolved, must be due to ur previous complaints to BNM

did u get the 10% thru phone?

etiqa took months to send out the policy
so best is to call etiqa on weekend and pay using M2 Amex, then you'll get 10% + 5%

Correct me if I am wrong, so paying car insurance thru Etiqa:
1. Call Oneline 1300 13 8888 on Saturday entitles you 10% discount and they accepts MBB2Amex and gives 5% rebate.
2. Motortakaful -online (open 7/24) entitles you 10% discount but they dont accept MBB2Amex
3. Branch office (open Mon-Fri) no 10% discount but they accepts MBB2Amex.

Has anyone tried option 1 and get the 5% rebate? Read somewhere that the transaction might be regarded as Monday's transaction.

Tried to pay thru motortakaful.com (option 2) but terminated when this was displayed:

B) Types of Online Payment System offered are:
1) Credit Card (VISA or MASTERCARD)
2) FPX Internet Banking
3) Maybank2u.com

donpapachino at what stage did u see option to select AMEX?

I tried until the payment stage (3) and the credit card types are still Visa & Master, no AMex. So I abort the transaction.

Looks like I have to try option 1: the Etiqa Oneline (by phone) on a Saturday Morning
