Good idea but it will be too many for me. laugh.gif
Can straight use, no SMS is required. It is based on first come first serve though.

Put other cards aside until finish spend with Ambank supp, especially petrol.

18.6% cash back is far higher than those 5% petrol cash back, worth to take advantages.

BT contributes to your total credit outstanding which could be one of the reasons why it requires longer time to evaluate and assess your case.

That said, since you can qualify for PBB VS, why didn't you try AmBank WMC instead? Its benefits are much better than Plat.

Honestly speaking, none of the AmBank cards actually fulfill your spending pattern. laugh.gif
Both WMC and Plat are for overseas usage mostly.

The reason why we applied is because of the new application cash back and its groceries+dining cash back that is ending on 14th Sept. These two programs are on first come first serve.

Another reason for me is due to its PPL, as it allows some overseas PPLs which I frequent as well. smile.gif

Since you said they perform settlement daily... Ambank swipe has the slowest posting, so it's Ambank's delay tactic. It has nothing to do with the EDC merchant bank, right ?
Swipe @ AEON Supermarket took 3 days to be posted.

For those with Supplementary Card with AMbank, payment to Principal card account WILL NOT AUTO-APPORTION to the Supplementary Card account.

You need to make separate payments :-)

If u use the maybank credit card and the pos terminal is from maybank. The posting will be faster compare to other credit card.
Also, if merchant perform settlement daily , it will make the posting faster. It can be as fast as 1 day which is same day for posting date and transaction date.

How to maximize the cashback?



Cashback Promotions
Principal + Supp : Spend Rm1600, get RM650
Dining + Groceries : Spend RM500 get Rm150 (principal & supp each)
Supp cashback : Spend RM688 get RM128

Principal
Spend RM912 (RM1600-RM688) including dining + groceries, get (RM650 & RM150)

Supp
Spend RM688 including dining + groceries get RM150 & RM128

Is this correct?

I supposed you shall stop applying from any bank now.
Give a try again in 6 months time, else you will trigger all the banks for your rejection.
