Must clear all because Amex Gold is on a different system (Membership Rewards) while Maybank2 is on Treatpoints.

noted. this was originally based on feedback from Guan Teik.

Parkson voucher is below 10k for RM50

Jusco RM100 voucher = 20k Tpoints
https://www.maybankard.net.my/catalogue/pro...e=89&pro_id=228

Parkson RM50 voucher = 9300 Tpoints
https://www.maybankard.net.my/catalogue/pro...e=89&pro_id=505

Metrojaya RM50 voucher = 9000 Tpoints
https://www.maybankard.net.my/catalogue/pro...e=89&pro_id=504

Treatpoints is not "that" bad

rate is not that great
For every conversion of RM10 the points equivalent is 2100

https://www.maybankard.net.my/catalogue/pro...=102&pro_id=542

no harm done. What thing Malaysian CS lacks is consistency

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

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

It's a bit confusing... is the 5% cashback up to RM50 shared with all the cards (principal + supplementary) or is a feature of the principal only?

the language they use

From Facebook

1) Since Supp is charged RM25 a card, can we opt to supp only 1 card?
No. Can't choose 1 card (amex) it comes in 2. Amex & visa/ master

2) Supplementary card entitled to 5% weekend cashback?
Supp also enjoys 5%. The rm50 cap per mth is on acct level (basic+supp spend)

3) Supplementary card entitled to 5x TP?
Yes. Supp enjoys 5x TP

huh? one year max is RM600....

The answer was posted on maybankard's facebook and several pages back.

Maximum cash rebate of RM50 (at 5% = spending of RM1000) per month.
Not hard right?

No access to KLIA lounge for Maybankard2

They are at 1U.

Yes it does (current promotion till Apr '11). Best to estimate 2 weeks for processing and payment...

Amex Gold CC features not really competitive compared to the Maybankard2s

I got the correct 5x points

From Facebook, we can change to MC + Amex pair in April without extra GST. Phew.

No I believe just call in. The exact exchange.
