Hi All,
How do we check on the conversion rate on 8th October? I have made some transactions on that day to my AMEX as follow:

US67.19 = RM217.93

Seems quite high to me around 3.25
Where u made ur transaction? by paypal?

err... thats a normal rate if using amex?

refer to bnm, rate on 7 oct is 3.1585 so after + 2.5% amex fee = 3.2374

since Gen-X stated "1.57% to 2.53%", so CP88 rate of 3.2435 is within the rage ~

Thanks alex and fruitie for the info.

So far, anyone did BT for maybank 0% interest for 12 months, I wonder if there is any hidden charge? I'm lazy to read the T&C...

nope no charge at all

I made this transaction in a US hotel. . Well with the 5X and 5% rebates on weekends, I guess its still worth using AMEX.

I already asked this question in Paypal thread here..but no one knows about it at the thread..so maybe here some of you knows..my question:

"I want to buy online using paypal that linked with my AMEX so i can enjoy 5x points and for the weekend..5% rebates..it is possible to pay by paypal linked with Maybank AMEX rite?"

one more thing..if i use paypal linked to my maybank amex on weekend..is it I still can enjoy 5% rebates?

tq

Yes, Yes, and Yes

fruitie says any merchants that accepts MYR currency only will not able to use Amex with Paypal.
Merchants that accepts USD or others only accept Amex via Paypal (eg. iTunes/Apple)

I wonder if its possible to BT from Maybank to Maybank?

Read above

already asking maybank card center 1U, can't be done..

plain answer is NO unless its maybank islamic (ikhwan) to maybank convensional or vice versa..you can't transfer balance from cards that is sharing credit limit with each other

yes u can. but no 0% plan.

refer here - http://www.maybank2u.com.my/WebBank/BTf300511.pdf

I pay RM50 GST to apply new CIMB CC.
From MBB, BT there for 6 months 0%

Going to BT back to MBB soon for 12 months 0%

Yes, Maybank have been offering this BT for quite some time where you can convert your outstanding balance to 24 or 36 months installment. Refer link given by erry. To note that the effective interest rate is 8.41% and 9.22% for 24 and 36 months installments.

You have another option that has shorter term repayment period. Apply for EzyCash where you have to pay upfront fee of 3.88% and the "loan" amount will be "interest free" with 6 equal installment. Click here to read my article on Maybank Credit Card Promotion where I touched on it briefly and gerrardling gave the link to the T&C at General CC Thread.


still got 2 months to benefit from this method

WaCKy-AngelThis is a way to get Maybank to Maybank BT with 0% interest that you are looking for Nominal Fee of RM50
