Yes. Petrol cash back is capped at only RM30/month while grocery purchases are capped at RM60/month. For all others, the cash back is unlimited. The major downside of the Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum is that the cash back earned will only be credited back into your account on the next statement after you've reached at least RM50 of cash back

Bloody barista...


Unfortunately no. It's only for Maybank VISA and MasterCard and this offer is ending at the end of this month.

Due to overwhelmed response i suppose. May be they have come to realiazation that just how frequent their AMEX card holders are going to Starbucks and they are posting huge losses on this promotion

I received a reply from Maybank yesterday. Regarding the problem i faced at a Starbucks outlet here in KK with the AMEX complimentary beverage promotion. They said they have forwarded my queries to AMEX and my queries shall be answered soon.

Wrong! Should be 0.5% for VISA & MasterCard, 3% for all AMEX.

If you have the Maybankard 2 Cards, just key in the numbers of your MBB2 VISA or MBB2 MasterCard when making redemption online. They will deduct the TP from your MBB2 AMEX if there isn't enough TP in your MBB2 VISA/MasterCard. Done this three times to date

Totally agree with you. It won't be Vincent Tan paying for all the free drinks we got in the past few months. Maybank was the one footing the bills. The joy was cut short but still, thank you Maybank

On the other hand, can any of you please confirm once again that the 5% weekend cash rebate for MBB2 AMEX is based on posting date or transaction date ? I'm talking about those transactions made overseas because i am already sure that for those transactions made locally, it is based on the transaction date. I just checked my M2U and i did not get the 5% rebate for the purchases i made on 30 July & 31 July in Bangkok. To add insult to injury, the exchange rate was high

Good to hear this. Will ring them up as soon as i get home.


Not yet because i am still in Bangkok. I have however, emailed them this morning.

Nope. Just the VISA and MasterCard.

I face exactly the same problem. I kind of doubt what the CS told you because if my memory serves me correctly, it happened to me before that the transaction date was on a weekend but only posted on Monday but i did get the 5% weekend cash rebate by the end of the month.

No. They don't. It happened to me before and i got the 5% weekend rebate. It was for a MAS ticket if my memory serves me correctly.

Yes. It was 2 or 3 months ago...


Yes. You can. Make a cash deposit at Maybank ATM.

It seems that this problem is very recent then. Anyway, hopefully i'll get a written reply from them asap.

Not necessary to do so.

Of course the remaining unpaid balance will be charged interest or else everyone will just be paying the minimum.

No

I received a reply from Maybank this morning regarding the MBB2 AMEX 5% weekend cash back. See below :



Anyway, i don't get what they mean here > Nevertheless, if the 30th or 31st (weekend), the cash back for the said transaction is based the posting date and it will calculate for the next month cash back.

Seriously, this is not fair. How are we supposed to know when the payments made during weekends are going to be posted into the system ? And why a different rule for weekend falls on the last day of the month ?

I think the Maybank CS replied my email was trying to say that if the posting date is on the same day, the cash back will be carried forward to the next month. However, if the posting date is a day or two after the transaction date (in my case which was on Monday and Tuesday respectively), i get nothing!

I just receive a reply from them and you are right! They are very fast in answering my queries this time around. Less than half an hour only
