Hi,
Just a quick check.
Anyone use Amex card to pay the http://onepay.vn in VND before?
I not sure whether it can go thru as the currency is in VND.
any advice?

Thks

Posting date and transaction date not same, read OP.

When is yr transac date?
if fall on 30 Sep it will capture in Oct cash rebate.

Thks

i made sure to follow US timezone when using paypal, but i missed the part on transaction vs posting date.

From what i understand, to get the weekend rebate, the posting date must be weekend, not transaction date.

My PayPal transactions always posted at least 2 days from transactions date..

thanks for the info, i'll take note of that next time.
how about more than 2 days? does it happen often?

No, you are wrong.
Transaction date must be weekend.
Posting date is basically not important, but it is important if weekends fall on 29th-31st because if the posting date only happens on the following month, then rebate will be included in next month's rebate.

For e.g.
On 30th September, you swiped for something. Transaction date captured on 30th September but your posting date is 1st October then your rebate will be included in your October rebate and not September rebate.

understood, thank you so much for the explanation.

dear all, just wanna ask regarding the transaction date which is shown at mb2u.... visa is always late, unlike amex.. amex next day will get the transaction via m2u..

however using visa, at times need to wait up to 2 days if on a weekend.... so example, my last day of the month is 6th, and its a saturday, and if i were to swipe my visa on saturday night, and the statement appear only on monday, is it still included in my current month's statement, or it will appear as the following month's statement?

It follows your transaction date.

fruitie, so if i swipe on a saturday (and its 6th), the statement shud be released on 7th... if the posting appears on mb2u on the 8th, will the amount be added to the statement released on 7th, when its out on the 8th?

sorry kinda confusing i know lol

I think it should be included on 7th one as well...
But again I might be wrong.

cos some of my friends claimed that it will be included in the following month's statement due to visa being so slow... however, it doesnt really make sense as well.. so wanna ask u

To me transaction date should be the main point here.
Let other sifus to clarify. Me newbie only.

If the bank doesn't know about it, the bank cannot put it in your statement.

Depends posting date. Its good for you, give you 'extra' loan period.

If the posting is 1 day after your statement, congrats, you just have another additional 30 days interest free purchase.

Visa/Master tend to be quite slow in posting dates

Based on your scenario given above, it will go to next month's statement. This is because the transaction made on the 6th is only posted on the 8th, but the statement already comes out on the 7th. And yes, Maybank does issue statement on the weekend too.

I just got the cards today but it tooks 90 minutes to process it. Not 60 minutes as describe.

i got my cards at klcc.
yes, it did take longer than 60mins after the bank received my forms and docs.
