Applied for my 2Kad this past Thu at 1U. Indeed only 1 hour before they called me to collect my cards. But the Starbucks RM10 card, I had to ask them for it, otherwise they kept quiet even thought the banner at the entrance announces it :| Submitted photocopy of IC, EA form and 2 months salary slip.
Online purchase no rebates? How about points? |

Wanna ask about linking Paypal with AMEX. When we buy stuff online in USD, do we go through the 2x conversion?

QUOTE(cempedaklife @ Apr 22 2012, 06:54 PM) Not sure. Must be 200-300rm. Why? If you're at 1U, Pyramid or Midvalley etc, can redeem Avengers 2 tickets with minimum 200/300 spent with Amex. There's a certain date, can't remember, check the M2U homepage. |

QUOTE(David83 @ Apr 24 2012, 09:38 PM) If it doesn't appear in M2U, it is very likely that the cards are not linked. You have to go to the nearest branch to get them linked. I asked them when I applied, they said I have to make a call. But when I got my card, they appeared automagically in M2U. |

QUOTE(cute_boboi @ May 18 2012, 04:18 PM) 1) This can be an issue to some banks. I kena before, they tell me no one pickup (coincident, someone at home is asleep or went out already). I add in office tel number and appeal. Card is approved. But this is like ... many years ago. Don't think it's an issue now, I didn't even give them my home phone. There are people with no home phones...Added on May 19, 2012, 9:22 am QUOTE(fruitie @ May 18 2012, 12:14 AM) Yes it is RM 9700 for RM 50. Is there a list of TreatsPoints items? I looked at M2U but couldn't find. I changed RM 200 before.  This post has been edited by Dannyl: May 19 2012, 09:22 AM |

I noticed the exchange rate for foreign use for Amex MBB is higher than other MBB cards. The rate is based on Amex/Visa/Master or on MBB?

My recent Maybankard2 is now charged service tax. The Amex one is waived (they credited RM50 back to the account) but the Visa one is still there. Can waive?

A strange thing happened. Few days I ago I called customer service to waive my GST by using 10k TreatsPoints. Then I realised I need the points for the TP Fair next week, so called them again just now, ask if they can reverse the application (saw from my M2U that the RM50 not credited yet). Surprisingly, they told me no such application has been received and my last call was in May 2012. Both calls were using the number at the back of my Plat Amex. Scary.
QUOTE(MilesAndMore @ Jun 28 2012, 04:18 PM) I went to SenQ this morning and I was going to buy the new 32GB iPad WiFi only model. I enquired about this Maybank 0% EzyPay Instalment but guess what, i was told that i have to pay RM20 (Apple license fee) + RM25 (one time processing fee for paying by instalment) for 12-month 0% instalment. For 24-month 0% instalment, i have to pay RM20 (Apple license fee) + RM65 (one time processing fee for paying by instalment) Sen Heng no such problem wor. Can buy anything. But 0% 6-month instalment only applies to MBB Visa and Master, not Amex. No Apple fees, only RM12 for Sen Heng membership if you want the extra year warranty. Of course i wasn't willing to pay for the absurd fees. So i asked the staff if they accept AMEX and told him that i wanted to pay at one-go with my AMEX. But guess what, i was told that i have to buy at least two iPad accessories or they are not selling me the iPad  The only Apple Premium Reseller Store in KK is Technocrats and they are using the same business tactic too. The only difference is that instead of forcing their potential customer to buy two iPad accessories like SenQ, one can choose to buy only one.So, if we still have to pay this stupid processing fee for credit card instalment, it is not really a 0% instalment anymore. Anyway, i walked away at the end. So there goes my plan to buy an iPad Do complain to their management. This post has been edited by Dannyl: Jun 29 2012, 10:07 AM |

Today's the last day to get your 5% cash back for June! Sadly, I won't get any cash back this month. All my purchases were on weekdays. Today tried to pay for condo maintenance (Amex not accepted), buy supplements (Amex not accepted), reload TNG at Sen Heng (mesin rosak, manager not in, yada yada)

My Amex has some outstanding amount and I noticed there's an automatic payment done from my savings account, but credited back again. What's happening?
