I got no idea Bro, it was you who mentioned it. But I can confirm MBB Plat yes because I just used it last month at SG ( which was damn stupid of me because I forgot my UOB give me 5X in SG). Maybe zenquix or Miles can confirm if MBB 2 also earn 2X for overseas.

well, really no point in keeping the AMEX Gold. Go convert whatever MR points you have to Cash and use it up and then cancel it.

you guys think you are smsing ar? hahaha

23/7 Just make sure you pay whatever is the Outstanding Balance stated in your Statement on 3rd June before 23 June.

what samseng? what I meant was that some of you guys here post as if you are sending sms. You are not limited to the number of characters when posting here

I meant you should post with proper English spelling E.g. u = you and msg = message or did you meant msg = monosodium glutamate

I just called MBB Platinum Services Tol Free line, somehow my son's name on his card is spelled wrongly. I don't know if that's my fault or MBB's. Anyway told the CS about it and she informed me they will sent a replacement in a week's time FOC. So I asked if I can also get a replacement AMEX since mine is first batch without the Platinum word, and the girl said YES. I asked if I will be charged and the girl said NO

I am getting to like MBB CS more and more

I doubt they will charge me since the CS mentioned that it will be free. But then again, like you said, they may charge me for it. But never mind, Tol Free and can call and complain until they reverse it, haha. Wonder if our conversation was recorded? If call MBB marketing, conversation is recorded.

since you got both cards, take both of them when go you traveling and your problem solved unless the merchant don't accept both cards.

Thank you for reading my blog. Well I mentioned that for shopping MC better since we get free gifts. Now, the thing is what is the diff in your case? You already got the MC in hand. If you worry so much, go get another Visa card and problem solved.

I like you, worry too much and plan in advance, just like me I don't think you will face any major problems with merchants accepting MasterCard as most places that accept Visa also accept MasterCard.

As for UOB Lady's card, the overseas conversion rate is higher than MBB MC even with 2X UNIRinggit. Unless the card can save you money with the discount at a particular merchant in Malaysia or Singapore. But if you really want a UOB card, look at the new revamp One Card. Or alternatively get a UOB Debit Card to withdraw cash from ATM but you got to maintain RM500 in the account and there is a RM12 fee for overseas withdrawal.

MasterCard good for shopping, it's the official card for the Great Singapore Sale and Malaysia Mega Sale Carnival. click here to read my article.

No, it is not proper to use your company phone and time for personal gain, hahaha. Just kidding.


yah it is the same when I compared mine (without the Platinum received in mid Feb) to my wife's Principal and Supp (both with Plat on the cards in late/early March) and my son's which he only received last month.

That's the beauty for AMEX, it is done to this way to mislead people like below But now, everyone knows and you guys are to be blamed.

AA, wait and see, my airport tax refund for a flight which I did not take more then a year ago still not yet credited.

yah, now is UOB card processing department's turn to be flooded with new applications for the One CArd.

If you call CS general line they most probably won't or can't tell you the reason. However, if you apply thru a MBB staff, and you got his/her contact number, you can call him/her and they can check what is stated in the system.

The Supp card TP can be "transferred" or combined with Principal when doing redemption. No problems whatsoever. Just call CS. Generally applies to all cards.

As for supp card GST, posted it at post#2.

How come? I managed to cancel my MBB Petronas and AMEX Gold CC over the phone this year.

that's a good one

Bro, got to admend, it was reported JetStar don't accept AMEX, my bad for reporting earlier it does.

Mine expire in 2016 and so is my new MBB 2 AMEX card with the word Platinum on it However the 4 digit CCV not the same.

yes, supp card also earn same points as principal card and the cash back is combined.
