Please add COURTS into "Computers, electronics and furniture" category.
I got confirmation from Courts FB Team.

Courts can, I did use Amex there once to get a notebook which was on sale for less than RM1K.

Just noted Tag for this thread, Amex should be tagged as credit card since there are AMEX charge card too.

I tried using AMEX for their online ordering, there's no option for AMEX at the checkout page, only visa and mastercard. When I click on 'Proceed to Payment' however (after selecting VISA), there's an AMEX logo on the page where you key in your credit card details. So I tried using AMEX there, got a msg saying 'merchant is not allowed to process this type of payment'.

Usually my wife call them and I have paid once using Amex, but last two times the delivery boy did not bring the mobile terminal as they don't read the instruction which clearly states that I am paying with CC and ended paying with cash vmad.gif

I purchase IT goods from All IT as well as The Hub (Viewnet) at Lowyat Plaza on an off, the last being at All IT in mid-March 2011. There has never been an issue with AMEX acceptance at both shops so long you're paying the price stated on the label - this I can attest. Both shops aforesaid will however use a separate terminal for AMEX.

But if you bargain for a lower price like me (yes you can!), you have to ask them if the lower price (if offered) is applicable for purchase by CC. As far as I remember and according to the sales staff (at least for the Aztech section), All IT charges a flat surcharge of RM3 for each item (c/f per transaction) - this is not reflected at their card acceptance signage at the cashier. I still lean towards shopping at All IT because of AMEX acceptance and competitive pricing as well as free (2 hours?) parking with the All IT Rewards card - with purchase above RM100 if my memory serves me well.

All IT, you must tell the sales person you using AMEX and you don't want surcharge and they will write a note so that cashier is aware. Last year when I bought my 23" LG LED monitor, the salesman claimed it was offer price and therefore I have to pay surcharge, I told him no such thing, take it or leave it and he agreed no surcharge. Last at All IT when I bought my cheap K-World multi media player, the salesman wrote a note on the price tag so no surcharge with Amex BUT the hardisk which was on offer and was cheap the counter said got surcharge.

All 5 stars hotels accept AMEX. Actual, Shangri-La have offers for AMEX's AMEX Platinum Charge Card and CC. Sometimes also they offer promotions to AMEX card holders. Last time I was at Zipangu, I received discount with my AMEX Gold Charge Card.

For what? If for Telco likes DiGi, Celcom and Maxis, you just go to centre and it will be "immediate".
