The administration fee charged for all transaction made in foreign currency to Maybank VISA or MasterCard is now 1% instead of 0.5%.

Hi Ronnie,

thanks for your recommendation.
Any example of real transaction to show us as reference?

Where can i find the 5% rebate info regarding this card?
5% rebate will end after December 31, 2103? what's the rebate after that?
Any limit to the 5% return? of all transaction without limit?

Thanks,
Len

I would like to ask sifu who always buy air asia tickets. I bought one way air asia ticket with the point of departure from overseas e.g. gold coast. i've changed the currency to RM however when I want to submit my credit card details it still used the home currency Aud. therefore end up paying Aud (the reason I want to use RM is because their rate look cheaper).

Is this normal e.g. they will charge based on the currency of the point of departure?

Transaction date, based on local time, not Malaysia time.

Hi just a quick question, if I paid an item overseas in foreign currency, will the foreign transaction fee (1% or 2.5% for amex) be included with the actual transaction amount (appear as a single line item) or will it appear as a separate line item?

Yup... Lower charge than Maybank 

hi i am planning to go to Jakarta soon....i plan to book my hotel, food and a few other things from here.... so the charges will be in usd or rupiah.....may i know which CC gives a good conversion rate and rebates.....i have
hlb wise, maybank 2 card amex and visa, aeon watami, ocbc titanium, hsbc amanah mpower visa....

from what i read here i think aeon watami gives the best conversion but i usually max out the 3% rebate.....i was just wondering whether OCBC titanium or HSBC with their 1% cash back is more worth it than AEON Watami conversion rate excluding the 3% cashback....

any comments..thanxs..
