accepts amex: P. Lal Store should be listed under retail. you have listed it under online.

TS, you need to update front page under utilities, TNB - Kedai TNB allows daily swipe of up to rm5000.00 and drive thru kiosk rm1500 daily limit. Just tried to pay rm6699 in New Town PJ but they allowed 5k. I think all Kedai Tenaga now accept Amex.

sorry you forgot to remove: "*Kedai Tenaga does not accept AMEX"

i think he means foreign currency conversion rates.

you mean crefit card not charge card. charge card is rm2380

yes it is between 2.5 to 3%

what surcharge the shop charges you when you buy is probably different from what they are being charged by their merchant bank.

Typically in the retail trade, high turnover merchants are charged between 1.4% to 1.5% for MC/Visa. Most new merchants get charged 1.6% to 1.8% for Master and Visa but when they surcharge you it is usually between 2 to 3%.

For Amex retail commissions taken from merchants are around 2% to 3% making it almost double MC/Visa. Shops will normally surcharge 3% to 5% for Amex.

I got the same error message trying to pay MBPJ assessment. Finally went to Yong Shook Lin and paid using Amex.

of course not, that's illegal.

assessment is local council; quit rent is land office. not sure if quit rent can but I plan to try with next dues.

probably ran out of paper. silly merchant should have done a reprint instead of swiping again...

oh that was very good of them!

my bill was 85+ but i never thought of that...

any charges for the top up? how much did they accept for?

To be fair, we are still quite advanced in this area, being chip based. In the USA, they still swipe and most of their cards are chipless.
