Why don't pay using Maybank VISA or MasterCard, you can get 6% discount.
I just bought mine last week using Maybank VISA.

I just booked a hotel in Penang and got 6% discount only.
The promotion for 10% has ended on 31st January 2012.

The footnote on agoda.com.my/maybank
Offer details:

LIMITED OFFER: 10% discount off for bookings to Singapore and Malaysia only (excluding Tax & Service charges) from 1 January – 31 January 2012 only
6% discount off the Total Booking Value (exclusive Tax & Service charges)
Valid for bookings from 1 January 2012 until 31 December 2012

Yes, only AmEx and only during weekends.
MasterCard has no rebate and only RM 1 = 1 treat point whereas AmEx is RM 1 = 5 treat points.
All these info can be found on first and second post.

Haha. To be honest, I wanted to reject it too last time when they offered me. You know, I feel that these CSs were just doing cold calling.
But somehow God shed some lights to me on that day and I accepted the offer.
Subsequently after that, SBC also called to offer me don't know what Business Platinum which I'm not interested at all, plus she called at the wrong time when I was rushing for my work.
Luckily I read it on LYN after that, it is not a good card after all. Phew.

By the way, added "i" to the Platinum at the title.

I changed my currency to MYR in Agoda's interface and whatever amount shown on the screen is the amount charged to my card. So, no extra charge for exchange rate.

I'm not sure about overseas hotel, I'm going to book one for my Bangkok trip and probably Hanoi later on. I think then I'll be charged with exchange rate.

Usually it is 2x or 2.5x of your salary.
Bear in mind, Maybank is stingy in giving or approving request for higher CL.

I didn't check up this thread and saw this chaos. I'm sorry for putting up the multiplier. Chill and cheers everyone.

Posting date or transaction date?
I always use my PayPal to pay and the most recent one was on Saturday's night to pay something in Euro.
My transaction date was captured on Saturday and posting date was yesterday.
3 weeks ago paid something in USD also with PayPal, same scenario as above and I got my 5% rebate on 1st March 2012.

How to be chosen?

That explains why nobody chooses me as well, mine goes into MBB too.

Yes, transaction date.
Posting date is just to determine which month your rebate will fall into. For transactions which take place end of the month.
This is my understanding la, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Best to have Maybank2Card combo with OCBC Ti.

I even had an encounter with GSC last year. I bought tickets via its online payment gateway and everything went well, I managed to collect tickets as well. I bought for my office mates. Even company also reimbursed for my claims and I paid directly to CIMB for the charges.

3 months after that, I received a reversed charges instruction and these charges were off-set against my due balance. I was puzzled as well. And it is RM 13x9 if I'm not mistaken. Until today this is still a mystery to me.

Don't pay, then will add you another debt record.

Min 3k can get platinum? Since when? You mean min 3k for FD?

He said no EPF statement.

So, just register an i-Akaun from any EPF branch and you can check out the statement all the time.
Else, can go to EPF branch or some selected RHB kiosks to print out your statement.

Combined credit limit.

Will be going to MV now to buy 1 iPad 2 and 1 iPod Touch. Called Harvey Norman, they don't have stock for iPad 2 but there is stock for iPod Touch. So will redeem RM 150 vouchers for iPod Touch and get the iPad 2 from Machines, and get RM 50 rebate.

I love Maybankard2Gold Card.

I save RM 200. Best thing of all, it is for my sister's company and in another word, I earn RM 200. Luckily this is legal way.

Yes and thank God things worked out as planned.
A little hiccup when Machines in MV had problems with AmEx card. So, I cancelled my purchase and went to Machines in The Gardens, luckily it works.
