QUOTE(Gen-X @ Dec 12 2012, 01:49 PM) Bro, she spending up to RM20K per month, I think she needs more than just OCBC Titanium MasterCard. But then again with annual income of RM36K, besides the OCBC and MBB 2 Cards, the only card I can think that may benefit her is the HLB Essential with 1% unlimited cash back. thank for the suggestion. But i would like to ask if the annual is 48k(put in some sie income statement), will i have more choice than hLB essential? Any special condition for the 1% unlimited cash back? my spending will be paying utilities bill online (tnb, astro,syabas,telco,tm & etc) thanks in advance

QUOTE(Gen-X @ Dec 13 2012, 11:41 AM) For Astro (Just call them) and Telcos (walk in and register for autobilling for DiGi, Maxis and Celcom), they do accept AMEX so your MBB 2 AMEX with 5X TP when redeeming for cash vouchers should be better than HLB Essential 1% cash back. For TNB, you can use your MBB 2 AMEX via Express Autopay but they limit it to RM3K per month only. If your Syabas bill is not much, i.e. less than RM1K, OCBC Titanium MasterCard is good with 5% cash back. Also click on below link to learn how you can pay bills using your AMEX card with M2U: Maybankard 2 AMEX for Paying Bills Online with M2U and for TNB with Express Autopay. You can use your MBB 2 AMEX to pay for Telelkom and Unifi bills  Hi gen x, Cannot use express autopay because is paying the office bill, which is not prefer. any idea for any other card?
