Just a quick question... before I apply for this card tomorrow..

1. The Amex 5x TP and 5% off on weekends is permanent and not some short term promo right?

2. When we sign up, the first year GST of RM50 for Principal and RM25 for supp will have to be paid no matter what, no way to avoid?

Cheers!

True... but I do get the same returns from the Citibank Cash Back Plat... but slightly easier with the Maybank per my calculation... so I plan to combo with OCBC Titanium perhaps can hit 80~100 cash back a month

ps : Citibank do have the bad habit of making me call before they waive the annual fee and gst though.. sigh

Why not combo both bro... cause the Maybank RM50 max very easy to hit the target... then u can spill over some to OCBC

Offtopic : I noticed BHP/Esso/Mobil petrol is better... especially on the RON95... Shell/Petronas cannot guna. But BHP's additives abit storng.. so certain engine will knock.

Try Esso/BHP for yourself see how it goes... I do Esso now.. cause BHP for me knocks.... I only pump Shell for their Vpower SPorts.

Er... i tend to pay my credit cards the moment I get the statement....

If I dont see the payment after a certain time, I'll just plonk in 1.5x my average spending, usually enough to cover some of next month spending as well.

Got my card this afternoon at MV... really got it within 1 hr wor...

But.. the parkign was horrendous.. even the premier parkign is full during lunch time...

Apply today get some special coupon.. spend RM50 at the fair can get a travel bag... nothign special probably worth RM10~15 the bag..

Got my card today and went into my Maybank2U to put in some payment standing instruction... then I came across this small print...


**************
Note:
1. A commission of RM2.00 will be levied for each eSI credit card payment effected by the Bank.

Huh?!

I thought any banks would be happy to have a client with SI to pay their credit card each month promptly?!

Oh ya... need ot add... I went to the treats fair to get my cards.... but I didnt get the free bag gift.. instead I was given a coupon and will only get the bag if I spend 50RM or more at the fair

Mine's different. Cause I got my card during the fair. So I get a special coupon to redeem a travel bag if I spend RM50.

Huh? Strange... the credit limit they gave me was more then more then 2x my monthly salary... infact Citibank also same (but MBB2 gave even more )

Erh?

I thought MBB2 card is 60k requirement?

Sure can qualify for OCBC lor hehe

Oops.. sowwy sowwy... feel dumb

The OCBC Titanium is equivalent to Gold?

Not really important to me, current just got the MBB 2 plat and will be keeping the Citibank cashback (since they waive the annual fee and gst) for abit. Probably will get the Ocbc later and cancel the citi.
