Beyond,

Esso's rebate revised and won't get the 1.5% as its now RM10 for 950 points = 1.05% now.
*
if request for rm 45 required 3k smile point still = 1.5% rebate

I'm not a frequent traveler to mainland side of Penang.

Let's me give you a tips for GSC cinema. In order to swipe AMEX, ensure that the cashier uses the UOB terminal. If the cashier uses the EON terminal, it cannot be swiped. I encountered this problem at GSC Queensbay.

ok thanks for the info, think i will go get my mbb2 card pretty soon

Hi all,

If I use amex in overseas, American Express
applies a conversion factor of 1.5% or 2.5% to the converted amount?
*
i'm not sure on the conversion factor
but if use amex, they will convert to usd first then only convert to MYR
even without the conversion factor i believe the cost would be much higher than we use visa/master card alone

OK I can share my opinion  tongue.gif
My car is too old (classic?) that I can't feel any difference when using fuel from ESSO/MOBIL/PETRONAS/BHP/SHELL/CALTEX. To me all are the same.
*
my car also classic 1
but still feel some difference
even with my old old classic motor

'"1 full tank saves 1 litre" to me is just a marketing strategy.
Say, a full tank is 40 litre. A savings of 1L is equivalent 2.5% from total volume.
2.5% is so little that drivers can hardly feel the savings !
*
i started using shell even before their advertisement of save up to 1l petrol...
did u notice any power difference?
if not then i would change to esso drool.gif

Not sure. why would you even want to transfer RM1k to paypal. To pay locally in Malaysia? If i not mistaken, For local RM charges, you get the USD > convert to RM then convert it according to buying spread to USD again to be charged into amex
*
well i'm not buying anything from malaysia
and the currency will deal in usd too

still considering between google checkout and paypal service
