icic, so paypal will follow US time.

anyone know about flight like MAS, SIA and airasia process the payment during weekend?

the differences mainly on additional travel insurance coverage, retail protection, and complimentary golfing for platinum card.

flight usually process the payment on the same day even during weekend. but would you risk waiting til weekend only to buy it?

flight usually planned quite early one, unless it is airasia promotion

if that's the case, then no problem. oh ya, just as a reminder, another merchant that doesn't process during weekend is agoda.

MAS and Airasia process instantly.

Jetstar however process mine a day later. Bought on Sunday afternoon. Transaction date on Monday. Don't know if it's an isolated case.

Year end is almost here. I'm itching to go out spending like there's no tomorrow
Now just waiting for Amex to give some cash rebates....lol

thanks for the info.

but looking the exchange rate AMEX is charging, not that worth if purchase in foreign currency.
I think Citibank debit card still provide the best exchange rate based on my experience so far

SIA, MAS, Cathay Pacific, Air France, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines all follow US time. Been there done that.


I'm not sure about Air Asia but MAS follows US time, as far as i know.

How does the dispute part works? (else can someone just point in out where I can refer to? :s kanchiong)
I just received SMSes saying that I made certain purchases with my AMEX which I didn't. Called CS to cancel card.

After raising dispute do I still need to pay for the outstanding+interest rate? Cause CS said will take up to a month to clear.

Is this common? :S

Ask for dispute form. Fill up and submit at counter or fax or scan/email over.
Wait up to 45 days, normally refund you back.
In the meantime, MBB will tell you no need pay the dispute amount and the interest will be taken out if it ever gets charged (if dispute reversal)

THANKIU. Have to wait and see

Even with the higher exchange rate, the 5% + 2% will still make it cheaper than other cards.

I always play it safe by purchasing between Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

alexwsk, bro, can i suggest that the AMEX SafeKey feature be mentioned somewhere in Page#1.

Has anyone able to access Rewards page on Maybank2U ? Mine seem to be forever processing.

try it in the afternoon, normally me morning also cannot access

That's not true for my case.... afternoon is 12-3pm is worse time... but now it processes until it gets logged out

As far as I know, not possible. Maybe you can call CS and see if they can help to retrieve it for you.

Pls help. If im using my AMEX to charge for Maybank Etiga car insurance renewal through phone with Etiga agent in Saturday, do i still entitle for the 5% cash rebate and 5x treats point.
