@Gen-X,
Lol... Perhaps because U spend damn a lot of $? oK.. I'll look into it - need to pay any fees or not?

What do you mean by Outside Card Machine? Self service kiosk?

same goes to esso smile card

You simply sign also can pass.

Petronas does not accept AMEX? Too bad...I just plan to apply Maybank 2 Card.

Even though i pay at counter also can't?

Most of my expenses are refilling petrol, that's fine if Petronas don't accept AMEX, i can try Caltex. 

Yesterday i used Maybank Visa Debit Card at shell petrol pump to pump petrol but after coming home and checking my maybank account I saw
PRE-AUTH DEBIT RM200.00

after calling CS they said after 2 ~ 3 days my money will get refunded in my account.

so does it mean every time I pump petrol I get RM200 cut ?

and after few days get my money back ?



or was it because of Sunday ? 

Hold RM200, I don't have a jet it is just a normal car and can get the tank full max at RM 70~80

why hold 200 

thnx for the tip next time will do that.

use amex pump fuel at esso mobil petrol station, online system isn't updated instantly in a day?
then the post date would be the transaction day or not?
How is the step to use cc and smile card on the esso mobil petrol fuel machine? Can teach me? thanks 

Taiping Esso station with CC at pump, must be the one at Simpang. Am I right?

after inserting smiles card, the screen will still prompt for your payment card. And when you insert credit card and get the approval, the system won't ask for your Smiles card anymore. Most importantly, Smiles Points are awarded.
trust me, I have done this.

Iam using mesra reward card since 3 years ago..but i didnt get any statement or letter regarding my reward...where can i check it?

thanks.

what do u mean by RM50 cap? maximum of RM50 cash back in a month or need to pump at least RM50 to get 5% cash back?

Myself I am using Public Bank Esso Mobil. I think also 5% cash back.

Just to share (or some of you might know this ady.)

There is a transaction limit checking for Maybankard Amex (not sure for other card scheme and issuer) that limit the petrol transactions not more than 3 times per day.

I realized that my card been blocked (refer to card issuer on the receipts) after I pumped my parent's car and my car - back home town. I called up the CS and they told this checking is to prevent fraud case. rclxub.gif Then the CS asked me to use my Maybankard2 MC (which I keep in my drawer).

They do not allow. 3 times max per day.

as annoying as it sound in normal times, it's actually a "life saver" if you happen to lost your card, especially in petrol station.

Hi there, just notice everytime when using credit card / debit card to pump petrol, even if i pump only 30-50, but it lock 200 from my balance. may i know how long will the lock been release?

what is this 200 point? promotion or prize?
