overall, i think MBB2 wins OCBC Titanium.
Can't say so. Ocbc titanium is used more on bills. While for mbb2, Amex is not widely accepted and the MasterCard/visa is basically useless.
Having said that, what I do is:
- use ocbc for bills. Almost 100% 5% rebate
- dining, if weekends and accept amex, swipe Amex, else ocbc
- petrol, fill in on weekends, use Amex. Always can time it to weekends coz I dun drive frequent
- on weekends, if it's accepted, always try to Max out Amex rebate, since it's harder to find outlet that accept Amex.
- on weekdays, if it's accepted, use Amex for those spending not under dining, bills, groceries and petrol that can get ocbc 5%, since Amex 5x points is equivalent to 2.5%
In short, always try to max out 5% rebate (additional 5x points) from Amex first. It feels good when u can get 5% from ur normal shopping from Amex.
Last weekends, bought cosmetic for my gf, rm260 from parkson, swipe Amex, 7.5% is rm19, parkson give rm30 voucher for spending over rm250. So I got rm50 "rebate" for rm260. Good feeling! Not to brag, but its a good feel too when ur gf timed buying of cosmetic to this festive season since parkson always give away vouchers like that on such occasion
