Maybank CS told me they will charge $1 for paper statement every month when I applied for this cc. Not worth it.

this applies starting this year for new holders ?

Hmm, I didn't ask. I just applied for the MBB 2cards and that's what the CS told me about the $1 charge. I guess the policy must be recent. Anyway, I opted for the online statements. I already have a MBB Petronas card and have been receiving online statements all this while.

lol yeah, i just simply went to view the form and found that clause: http://www.maybank2u.com.my/WebBank/ConvCa...Form_260613.pdf

Yes! Mbb sc did help tick the form for me after she explained on the $1 charges. Guess I forgot to mention this part as her words had more impact to me.

Sorry didn't reply earlier.

so did you checked whether mbb charge you rm1 monthly for the paper statement?

Ai, sorry again; was rushing for something and mistyped. I meant she helped me to cancel that part of the form as she was explaining to me verbally on the charges.

I just applied on Sat. Plan to collect the cards tomorrow. I don't need paper statements as my current mbb petronas card is already using online statements. smile.gif

so will you continue to use mbb petronas cc after getting this new cc?
if you are terminating your mbb petronas cc, remember to transfer your points to this new cc before terminating it.  nod.gif

I plan to cancel the petronas mbb but only in July (just before the gst kicks in Aug). That should give me ample time to move my insurance payment to the new cards. Hehe. As for the treat points, I have enough to redeem some cash vouchers. Will do that soon.

why not you transfer your treat points to your new cc first before think of redeeming the cash vouchers?
because you may want to use the treat points to offset your first rm50 gst of your new cc...

Let me ask mbb center tomorrow. I don't mind paying cash because I usually redeem cash voucher. Ex: Aeon big voucher using same points at mbb card center. End up spend the same amount on groceries. Hmm, actually, aeon big gives $105 gift card for 25k points.

Updated: I applied supplementary cards. Hence, my gst cost more.

To add on, I requested mbb to SMS me for any purchases. I guess that would mean $1 above. Filled in the form and that's it.

Do you have a checking or savings account with Maybank?

Checking account. Shouldn't matter as long as you can access maybank2u online account, rite?

If you already have either checking or savings, the cards will be included into one online  account.

If you don't have either, I will get an online account for each card. I've read here that it is possible to have a single online account for two cards without having a checking or savings account. I'd like to find out how.

Oh, ok. Hehe. All the best.

hello guys, I have been using MBB2 Gold for 2 years++ already.
I am now eligible for MBB2 platinum, based on my new salary. should I upgrade Platinum or just ask/apply for a higher credit limit?

thank you  smile.gif

Platinum cards should have slightly more benefits. smile.gif

When I applied, CS checked my existing mbb petronas card and wanted to give the same credit limit. I asked for higher limit and they wanted 3 months payslip. Fortunately, I had the docs ready. And got the credit limit raised.

Yup, same case as mine. Only need IC. They will check your history based on the Petronas cc. I only submitted my payslips to increase the credit limit.
