MBB2Amex

27-Dec-2011 23-Dec-2011 PP*xxxxCODE USA US US$1.95 RM6.34

Visa used MYR for confirmation instead..=(

btw, anyone receive this promotion update?

I've posted all my USD transactions using my MBB2 VISA for the period between October to December 2011 in HERE.

I'm very disappointed with Maybank right now. I've applied the credit card in their branches and after 2 weeks call the HQ and ask about it they say they never receive any application.

I called back then branch and they say they submitted. What the hell is wrong with their process?

Thanks Miles. very insightful.

for better or for worse (and as a teaser), based on data points so far.. you might as well apply the MBB VI

More recent data points (oct 2011 - Jan 2012) needed especially for MBB Visa Plat (the one with 2x for foreign transactions). No datapoints for MBB WMC yet as well and all my MC data points now are from jchong.

Either they lost your application form, the postman lost it or it's still somewhere and hasn't reached the credit card department yet. But since it's been two weeks, most likely your application form is lost. As for who actually is responsible ? Well, it's kinda hard to say.



No problem

Anyway, good to know that the preliminary date shows that MBB VI 5xTP for overseas spending is still worth it. Too bad i'm still not qualified for this MBB VI. Someday... definitely someday

Update on MBB VI overseas transactions -

1. I called CS and was told there are no fees aasociated with overseas transacations, I told her I know there are admin fees imposed and it is stated 2.5% behind the monthly statement. After checking she called me back to inform once again there is no overseas charges for transactions. She claimed she has checked with the relevant department and even with Visa International I told her once gain, it is stated 2.5% behind my statement, ask here go check why.

2. A reader at my blog pointed out to me that MBB VI T&C (that came with the MBB VI welcome kit) stated Admin Fee at 1%. And, after checking it, it is indeed stated that the Admin fee is 1% under Clause 13.

And from two of my transactions which I have previously posted in regards to overseas transactions with my MBB Visa Infinite, the overseas admin fee works out to be approximately 1.25% and with MBB VI 5X TP, it is still very worthwhile.

Anyway, it is great that zenquix is generating a comparison between various credit cards with the data provided from you guys

In this case recommended to reapply lar...coz like miles and more said, it may be lost. My guess is they misplace your application somewhere already....

Go direct to Card Center in 1 utama faster.

So the application form won't missing anymore.

Less likely to happen . Apply through branch normally wait longer......

It's better that you fax the form to the card centre.

Aiyo! She even called VISA International ? So "rajin" of her But the admin fee is imposed by the company she is directly working for, not VISA International


Gosh! Yet another consistency issue from Maybank!


Good to know that

Hey guys , How do you make use of the Complimentary Platinum Parking as advertised by maybank at 1 Utama?

You'll have to insert your Platinum card into the machine to lift the bar, if its a Maybank platinum or premium card it will just open without charging you, else it'll spit out a receipt for other cards.

There's very little parking spaces in there though.

It works with the Maybankard 2 AMEX Platiunm also, right ?
The Platinum parking is not covered, right ?

Yep works with M2 Amex as well, its semi covered as in there's some shading but wouldn't cover you if there's a heavy thunderstorm going on.

is this card offering free entry to airport lounge?

No.

5x points and 5% cash back are just for amex card right?

Mastercard just nothing?

Btw,
Where can i pay bill online using cc especially tnb? My bill monthly is about rm1000 plus per month for tnb only. So that i can cap my cashback as well as at least 5k points for just paying tnb bill

Mastercard/visa gives you 1x point.
Refer to the 'Places to use your AMEX v1.1' thread on methods to pay bills.

FYI, @Seng_Kiat, Kedai Tenaga does not accept AMEX.
