We are particularly interested to know whether you received 5% cash back or not.

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.
*
Posting date is different from the actual transaction date.

I am more concerned about the actual transaction date, rather than the posting date. In addition, actual transaction date may differ from online booking or purchase date. For instance, I made online hotel booking using SCB JustOne on Friday, but the merchant only processed and submitted it to the bank on Monday, and the bank recognised and posted the transaction on Tuesday. In my case, the booking or purchase date is Friday, but the actual transaction date is Monday, and the posting date is Tuesday.

In the end, I received cash back of 2% instead of 5%.

If the transaction date shown in M2U is on Saturday or Sunday, I am pretty sure that the transaction will be given a 5% cash back.

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 :

Item 2B is a bit misleading. I agree with alexwsk, it should read as "Transaction Date as per Online Banking Statement". Also, you would be able to know the actual transaction date only, but NOT the transaction time.

should add another item in between 2 and 3 i.e. Posting Date

QUOTE(celaw @ Oct 1 2011, 05:16 PM)
actually why want to bother about posting date? I thought the one that will affect cash back is transaction date, not posting date?
*
Cash back is based on actual transaction date (the date that the merchant processes and submits the transaction to the bank). It has nothing to do with posting date.

I am very surprised that the transaction date shown in my online unbilled statement is one day EARLIER than my transaction date. I have never experienced this before!

Maybe Paypal's time was US based...

Possible. PayPal's HQ is in California and it could be 16 hours behind Malaysia time. I overlooked this.

This time my transaction on Friday through PayPal managed to get 5%. It is generally confirmed that PayPal follows US time.

If you see my few previous posts, I did make online transactions via PayPal at 8am and 8pm, both on Friday. But only the latter received 5% cash back. The former was posted as transaction on Thurday instead.

It's year end, just make some donations for income tax declaration next year.
