Maybe tomorrow call again?

I'm going to wait until tomorrow or Monday then call again, see what they say.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I don't really spend 80k annually. Now that MAS doesn't fly to LAX, I'm thinking whether it's worth it to apply for the card just for the enrich points conversion.

Let's say I've this card. Can I cancel other cards and transfer the points to this card?
How long can the enrich points last after conversion from TP? Thanks if anyone can answer them.

I believe Enrich miles are valied for 3 Years.

If you have points on existing card which redeems at 7000 TP to 1K Enrich , you can't "move" those points to then get 1K Enrich for 4500 TP, if that makes sense.

The points are tied up to respective cards even if I cancel all the cards? How do you consolidate the points between existing Amex and MC(Maybankard2), principal and supplementary cards? Thank you.

I can't comment on supplementary cards as I've never had any.

But what's the reason for consolidating points between the 2? In the past if I've redeemed something for say 100K TP, if my Amex and MC had 80K and 20K respectively I just put both cards on the redemption form.

Not sure how it works when you cancel the cards .. but it doesn't make sense if they let you move the TP to another card where you can then redeem at higher value (ie in this case 4.5K TP vs/ 7K TP for redeeming Enrich)

I think the best way is redeem all the TPs before cancel it? Or request for the TP to be transferred to another card upon the card termination.

I m going to terminate my current generic VI once I get the MBB 2 Premier Cards..

The agent informed me that i'll be receiving my new cards by tomorrow. will cancel my amex 2 cards and transfer all the points to the amex reserve

the redemption process will consolidate all your accounts automatically and make average withdrawal.

during redemption, just give 1 of your principle card (amex or mc/visa)

* Refer to attached photo, first card is principle, second card is supplementary. I gave them the principal during redeeming Parkson voucher, over the CS counter.

If not mistaken, we still can extend one more year...

Why need to cancel the MBB 2 Amex? I suggest to keep it as it still can earn the 5% rebates lah.

Agreed! 5% (Rm50) extra discount on weekend purchase per month.. why not?

Great info here, thanks. Those are just hypothetical questions. I don't plan to cancel my card just yet. Maybe will apply for the premier 2 cards, cancel the old cards to transfer all the points to premier. Then use points to transfer to enrich

i have to cancel in order to transfer all my points(ard 800k treatpoints) to the my amex reserve. planning to redeem more enrich miles. will re-apply the mbb2 cards after that

Ah, dilemna. I just applied for the Maybank VISA infinte and the AMEX platinum card last november. I also having the AMEX 2 card for the 5% weekend rebate. I went for the AMEX platinum cause I want the unlimited plaza premier lounge access.

I have paid the RM 50 GST for both VI and AMEX platinum. So if i were to switch to this new 2 card combo, I have to pay another RM 50x2 again? Maybe I should not switch then. I know I can hit the RM50k per annum spending on VI, but now the 2card combo requires RM80k, not sure if I can hit that.

Maybe I should just stay with my current VI with Amex Platinum, and still keep using the mayban amex 2 card for weekend 5% rebate.

And yeah, i was told my one maybank officer over the counter, to maximise points, all the 5x points u've earned with Amex 2 card, just cancel them, they will xfer to ur remaining maybank card, so if it's VI, then ur treatpoints value will increase cause it will qualify u to be able to redeem enrich miles at lower value. He said it's been done before, but he's not suggesting me to do it, hehe.

Do remember to let us know how MBB do the adjustment of the TP when you transfer all TP to the Reserve Amex.

One year RM600, can pay up to 12 card's GST...

Amex Plat Credit Card? What about the fee waiver requirment for this card?

First year is free. Second year onwards annual fee is RM 2.3k i think. No options to waive. Just gonna utilise it as much for this 1 year subscription.

So you are refering to the Amex Plat Charge but not the Amex Plat Credit?
