amount cannot be more than current outstanding. But the good thing its all under 1 account. Say you're at the limit, but want to swipe visa. You can log into m2u mobile and pay to your amex. They will update your account almost instantly. I do that all the time tongue.gif 
need to swipe only pay my balance. As long as my all the payments combined is more than my statement balance.
no big credit limit. I just pump money in whenever I need to pay anything more than my limit. Can "over" pay into the account. Say rm4k limit, you can "over" pay another 3k via atm, cdm or otc. Then you can swipe for something costing rm7k.

rclxm9.gif Latest promotion!!! for AMEX cardholders,
I just received a SMS few minute said

"AmEx: Use your American Express Cards for 0% EzyPay Installment Plan & get F&B voucher at Digital Lifestyle Expo, KL Conv 29-31/7.T&C apply"
*
got the sms as well. I am actually surprised as this is the first time I heard that one can do ezypay with an Amex. Should have asked during Treatsfair instead of using my Visa....

Congrats! So far 2 person here reporting they won the Samsunbg Tab.

wow congrats!

Thanks guys. It was only about RM20k accumulated for all the months (all company spending) so I thought I would not get it (was just aimng to hit the min RM15k spending).... The previous guy spent more than RM100k...

QUOTE(snigapoe @ Jul 30 2011, 01:01 AM)
wow congratz...
is there any contest form or specific spending to entitle for the samsung galaxy tab??
really hoping to get one, since i have already missed the chance for star buck coffee
*
it was a contest from Feb to May (iirc). No registration required. The new (similar) promotion is the Lexus but that includes all AMEX so I don't think got chance with all those Amex Plat Charge Cards and Credit Cards walking around....

for otherseas transaction, it is based on posting date.  +2.5% for Amex.  If by visa/master only +.5%.

for local transacion, it is based on transaction date.
*
my experience is overseas transactions are based on transaction date

but u have to considred since amex will be convert to usd then only converted back to MYR rite?
*
all foreign transactions - Visa and Amex (and Mastercard) will be converted to USD first before being converted to MYR for settlement.

Also Human Nature's assumption is flawed - Amex and Visa are 2 different companies and may impose different foreign exchange rates (for the same time, same place etc.)

Maybank is only an issuer and will impose charges on top of the exchange rate given by the credit card companies.

My Paypal account was registered with my PBB credit card which was already terminated earlier...
By the way, it is nothing to do with browser, it shows Yahoo! doesn't accept the transaction.

I filled up the card numbers and CVC.
*
Should have registered the Amex to the Paypal.

Anyway this may be the error. Amex uses CID which is the 4 digits in the front of the card. The 3 digits is not used.

I would still recommend registering your Amex to Paypal and paying with that instead. Using DA robs you of the 5x points and non-expiry of points.

I just got my Maybankard2, but I just realize the Amex card cannot be used in Petronas.

Although I'm still carrying Maybank Petronas, I planned to cancel it right after I got my Maybankard2.

Changing petrol is a valid option. Shell and Esso/Mobil consistently accepts Amex.

My experience with the MAS website is early Saturday morning is considered Friday transaction likely due to their settlement schedule with the bank. This was when purchasing a ticket in Malaysia.

I feel like cancel both cards...Maybank 2 gold card not so good....i rather user CIMB TNG plat card.

to be frank, it sounds like you are choosing which card to use based on the colour and not the promotions or features...

if this is true, just cancel the cards and take the RM50 GST as a lesson to ask for the colour before you apply the card

5x points as that is an equivalent to 2.5%. 1% if they do not accept Amex.

IMHO it's better to redeem vouchers for the TV instead

I agree. get some jusco vouchers and just buy from jusco during sale times. More often it will be a better deal.

hmm.gif You have a point there too.
But I only use it during weekends to maximise the weekend cash rebate and not forgetting the 5xTP.
From my recent transaction, it shows RM 3.047 = USD 1.00
Still OK la...
If normal days, I think VISA/MasterCard is a better choice.
By the way guys, I need your help. My statement date is every month's 24th and due date is the following month's 13th.
I just want to pay for transactions that captured before 24th. As for the rest, I'll pay in next month since those are considered next month's transactions, no point clearing them now. tongue.gif

01-Sep-2011  01-Sep-2011  VINCCI JUSCO SEREMBAN 2 SEREMBAN MY    RM44.10 
01-Sep-2011  31-Aug-2011  CASH REBATE    RM3.50
25-Aug-2011  20-Aug-2011  PAYPAL USA US  US$23.00  RM70.08 
24-Aug-2011  24-Aug-2011  STARBUCKS-SOOKA SENTRAL KUALA LUMPUR MY    RM28.60 
19-Aug-2011  19-Aug-2011  PASTA ZANMAI MID VALLEY KUALA LUMPUR MY    RM106.70 
17-Aug-2011  16-Aug-2011  PP*xxxxCODE USA US  US$1.95  RM5.96 
01-Aug-2011  31-Jul-2011  CASH REBATE    RM17.74
31-Jul-2011  31-Jul-2011  YE OLDE SMOKEHOUSE HOTEL CAMERON HIGHLMY    RM49.30

I'll pay those in bold, how about the cash rebate of RM 3.50 can I offset when I pay before 13th? I always have this doubt so far I didn't offset and leave it for next month's bill.
*
just pay what is stated as your statement balance. That is the amount that you must pay and it reflects all transactions prior to the statement date.

on the cash rebate think the jury is still out on that one. M2U does track it as a payment but is it all that necessary to risk getting charged interest over not paying RM3.50 (up to RM50)?

Ok, my turn to brag  tongue.gif

Received a missed PosLaju notice before Raya. I guess it is those pre-approved CC again  yawn.gif  Therefore, not bother to pick it up myself, waste petrol and time. So, I called and they say send after Raya  unsure.gif

So, yesterday finally received it, quite heavy, slightly bigger that mooncake box size.
hmm.gif

Unwrapping process:
-> Open PosLaju bag
-> then open the bubble wrap
-> then open the brown paper wrap ( @#$% so many layer !)
-> then ...

or
(2) I want iPad 2 Contest

#1 prize is iPad, not iPad2. But according to the letter I receive, the subject title is #1, not #2  rclxub.gif
