This thread is used to assist our readers to plan our their (time sensitive) cash rebates as many already knew, there's a time gap between the transaction date and the actual posting dates. This thread can only work better if many share their info when chasing that cash rebates. Note : Info not restricted to hotel bookings only

Currently known cash rebates card which is time sensitive
1. Maybank2 AMEX (5% on weekends only, regular days 0%. Capped at RM50 p.m. )
2. SCB JustOne (5% on Fridays, regular days 2%. Capped at RM600 p.a.)


Please use the following template to share

** The below is the template **
1. Website : Website name / As Appears in your Statement
2A. User Transaction Date & Time : **th Month 2011, **.**am/pm
2B. Website Transaction Date & Time : **th Month 2011, **.**am/pm
3. Transaction Posted on (from Online Banking Info) : **th Month 2011
4. Card Used : Bank, Card Type
5. Currency transacted / Posted : USD -> MYR (eg.)
6. Cash Back Earned :

Notes:
- Do feedback on Item 2A & 2B only if there's a difference/anomalies. In some incidence, there might be a difference.
- 90% of the time the transaction date would not differ except if you are in a different time zone thus it'll be interesting to see whether the bank captures the local time (where you are) or Malaysian Time. Also, we may see different time for the transaction date if the website if overseas.

Will continue to improve the first post in due time.

Just to get the ball rolling. I have updated a similar post in the MBB thread as well.

Website : Agoda.com / AGODA HOOFDDORP NL
Transaction Date & Time : 28th Sept 2011, 7.05am
Transaction Posted on : 29th Sept 2011
Card Used : MBB AMEX
Currency transacted : MYR -> MYR (Agoda allows you to transact using your local currency. Other websites may use USD -> MYR)
Cash Back Earned : RM0 (Not my intention for weekend cash back as I need to book urgently)


@Bro chemistry ... you came in a bit too fast as I was still writing the threads. The real life example above should illustrate.
* In the posting above, I was not chasing after the rebate but the above should illustrate when the transaction and posting occurs for this particular website.

Forgot to mention that there's some money saved in this transaction but given directly by Agoda. Maybank have an ongoing promotion for hotel bookings with Agoda until the 31st Dec 2011. 6% discount given and calculated @ checkout.

Hypothetically, should anyone do their bookings on a weekend then it'll be a possible 6% + 5% = 11% discount. (Unproven at the moment - hypothetical)

@Bro winner
Got lah ... the quote is merely a template. I did post the actual transaction in post #4
And I did mentioned that I did not receive any cashback. Post is to show the transaction date/time and posted date.

Already update the 1st post based on the recommendations. I think if everyone contributes all the detailed info, we could see some forensics information about all our favorite websites that we buy stuff from.
