This card pales in comparison to UOB One Card/UOB One Platinum, OCBC Titanium MasterCard and Maybankard 2 AMEX.

but Amex is only sky at rm50/mth and Citibank is not limited rite?

the other cards i dun hav as i only MB2 card and Citi Cashback Platinum

Yes. RM50 cap per month but the 5x points are unlimited. 5x points = about 2.5% cash back.

As for Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum, cash back for every category is unlimited except petrol which is capped at RM30/month.


I have both of the MBB2 Cards and Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum too and i barely touch my Citibank Cash Back VISA Platinum now.

Yah, besides petrol, Citi Plat CB can't beat MBB 2 AMEX. Actually, UOB One Card better than Citi CB since UOB One Card credit the CB monthly vs. Citi block of RM50.

Just to add, MBB 5X TP for all transactions versus Citi Cash Back of 0.3% for general transactions.

With Citi CB 0.3%, need to spend RM16,666.67 just to earn RM50

So i should transfer out all my Auto Debit ac from Citi CB tomolo and pledge them to Amex ? btw, Auto Debit on utility bills also entitle to 5X points rite?

And is Amex widely accepted like Visa/Mastercard? as i only used my Amex on pumps to test how good is the card.

I actually wanted the "original" American Express CC which i idolise during my school days in the eighties (yes,i am an oldcok now) I now hav most cards except RHB( hate this, terminated even my platinum) ,OUB, Diners and CIMB.




my King of all cards

You got to be specific, auto debit for what? And how much? You no need answer it here, with that in mind, click here to read my article on MBB 2 where I compared to OCBC Titanium MasterCard. After reading that, actually should read this first, click here to read my article on OCBC TMC. After reading the two articles above, I am sure you will know what to do.

As for places that accept AMEX, read thread below:

lol just received a SMS regarding my approval.. delayed for 3 days >.<.. MBB said card has been passed to the postal service. Waiting for poslaju before I go kl.

what is the circled 4-digit mean??

The 4-digit code is the CVV. AMEX uses this, unlike Visa/MC which has the CVV at the back of the card.

No m2u bill payments available for AMEX so far.

okok.. get it.. thanks..

for AMEX bill payments u need to apply for Auto billing..currentlly TMnet is offering RM2 discount for auto debit trasaction..u able to earn points and RM2 rebate for TMnet bill

The RM2/service rebate only apply to Auto-Debit via TMPoint, right ?

I applied via email, and i got RM4 discount each month.

Unifi or streamyx?

Streamyx 1mbps. Actual bill per month is 111.05 after tax. Now i'm paying 106.80 per month after tax.

tax ??? do u mean after autodebit ?

Which email address did you send your request to ?
How many days did the Auto-Debit kick in after Bill Date ?

Cool, i must try it. thx
Anyone know how to change the owner name for the TMNet as it is under my sister name.
I'd like to change it so that can use it for tax deduction. Pls advise.
Thx

Yes, there's this "cukai perkhidmatan" thing, but it's only a few cents.

amex.customercare@maybank.com.my

They mentioned 3-4 weeks. Not too sure when it took effect because my bills are dated around 11-15th each month, while i submitted the request at the beginning of August. So I still had to pay August's bills myself. September bills onward on auto-debit.

You can try to go to TMPoint to change the name. I think your sister got to be there to change it. If not, the other way is to cancel your current subscription, and register for a new account.
