Thanks. Never notice that before.

Redeemed my voucher at Parkson, was told by the staff there, Parkson TP will change from 9300 to 12000 for RM50 by next month according to his manager. I asked how sure is him, then he said should be more than rumour.

For me, I'm using streamyx (no UNIFI here yet). My autobill was entitled for RM4 discount (RM2 for fixed line and RM2 for streamyx). I autodebit it using OCBC Titanium to get 5% for the balance of it. Few months ago, i did actually try to pay the bill partially with AMEX. The discount RM4 was still effective. But I only attempted once. I have 3 tmbills to pay every month....
