lol late reply, but no smile.gif

Yes, Someone will Clear for me once i "Handled" the $$ to them.

But in this case, i have no chance to clear it due to... >.<" haven't reach Statement date

Just verified with the CS.

Two Types of Supplementary

1. Joint Acc (my current one), means my C.C. Linked to Principal, despite it shows @ mb2u savings acc (got cards area), it's Limit and total Usage will be always the Principal (For the Limit) and and 0 for the usage. You will Never be able to pay through M2U using that account, must go to Cash Deposit, or write cheque into the C.C. But you can still see the total spendings.

Even if you Put 2k into the bank, it will still not clear out your Limit, and will only clear out ONCE statement dates +1 have reached, then you will again have 2.5k full limit again despite you have spend and if you haven't PAY a single cent on the last statement date.


2.Seperate acc, almost the same except you will see yr limit and spendings, and the total usage will be showed clearly. Good thing about this type is you will be able to clear out the balance and reuse the Credit Limit Despite it has not reached the statement date yet. BUT it will not Refresh your account nor Clear off yr Credit Limits automatically even thou you didn't pay a sen after statement date.

So... Either i shall consider using this card until End of the year. (Or be4 GST charges for the 2nd time), or just apply a new MBB2 once my salary reaches required level... I miss this black card sad.gif... hope that i could get till the limit to own that soon sad.gif

This is normal for all cards. You don't get back your credit if you don't make payment. The credit assigned to you will just get lower and lower. The statement date till due date only gives you extra 20 days of interest free for that portion but if you need to make use of the credit, you must pay.

That is for Principal.

Mine is Supplementary, so fall under 1st category... >.<

Hmm.. If recent Raise, can apply? don't have 3 months salary slip, but rise has been notified yesterday >.< Felt like applying in treats fair also smile.gif

means be4 raise = below 2.5k, after raise = more then 2.5, that is over the limit set by mbb...

Hmm...

I encountered a problem with this AMEX buy 1 free 1 promotion at a Starbucks outlet in my place last night. I tried to buy a Mocha Ice-blended Frappucino and was told that it is not eligible for the AMEX buy 1 free 1 promotion as the promotion is only applicable for regular coffee and tea drinks only. I did querry them and told them how come it was possible last time. She told me that they received an email from Maybank just very recently that it's only for regular coffee and tea. Anyone faced the same problem ?

i Highly Doubt so, last wed i just enjoyed 2 Cups of java chip Ice Blended.... >.< With the price of 1...

So i think it's just that shop that's bs-ing smile.gif

If normal coffee + tea, they gonna get it hard tongue.gif

Addon:

I always just pump petrol only on weekends... Groceries wise, very hard, cos Saturday no Plastic Day, Sunday = sleepy day...

Pump petrol wise, yea... forced to, 4 cars * RM60 each = 240 *4 = RM960. Quite Considerable... smile.gif

But mostly achievable is because of some IT purchases on weekends smile.gif

I encountered the other way round last week. My intention was to purchase normal coffee and free normal coffee.

But was told that the promotion is only for Frappucino. End up I paid for the Frappucino and get the free normal coffee.

Unforunately in the "Credit Card" Lists, you can only see that you can pay through your Maybank 2 Visa / Master instead of using Amex to pay sad.gif

I'm aware that this practise is pretty normal but after used MBB CC for nearly 4 years, I remembered that this is the first time I received such call.

Somemore last week I did swipe more than RM 1k in a single transaction but didn't such call. Instead, they called today to verify two small swipes I made on yesterday.
*
They traced by spending patterns and Location based tracking spending

Like example, i swiped 700++ @ Viewnet for the first time, got rejected and immidiate got call ask did i swipe that ammount or not.

as usual i swipe for only petrol and MAX also RM200 for TnG reloads, never once i swiped over RM500, and hence i got a call (bought 3*Wall Mounts for LCD for someone cry.gif )

there's also once where i Pump Fuel to da max 4 times for the day to hit the 5% cashback on saturday (each time for all cars @ house, timestamps i think diff by 10-15 mins) and 4th time swipe got rejected, and again called me to ask did i swipe a total of 4 times for fuel, and i explained that i need to pump all cars, and got approved @ 2nd try.

Then there's also another case where i tried to swipe 3 different Fuel Pumps @ 3 Quite Far Location between Each other (Cyber Pump RM10 cos unclaimmable, Karak, pahang Pump RM40 for claims, and Sungai Buloh Pump RM30 cos come back from Karak car Dry again.) 3rd Swipe @ Sungai Buloh Got blocked, and same CS called.. smile.gif

hopefully this will clear the doubts why there's Chances of CS calls. they will First ask where are u, and what are you swiping, or they will just directly ask are you swiping this amount @ this merchant.

Just one question >.<

Due to the "Extreme" Usage of meh and my dad with MBB2Amex where always can hit more then 3k just for spending on weekends, i have decided to get one for myself, called service center to ask for card application and they have mentioned that the approval within 60 minutes is no longer valid.

It is only valid on Treats fair only previously...

Then how would it be? sad.gif sad.gif i wanna apply tomorrow leh... sad.gif sad.gif

Any person who can confirm on this case? smile.gif

thanks.
