Hi captain.
I was asking him because he asked cash or cc is better. For me it will be cc. 1. Even with 2.5%, I am still better off with business class seat redemption via Enrich Miles. Say I want to fly to Japan which cost 34000EM plus tax which MAS is selling at 4k+. This will require MYR30600 spending and if we benchmark with 2.5%, I am only paying 700+ plus tax for a 4k+ seat. If there is promo it would be even better. 2. With money changer you are also buying the currency ahead. Example recently I bought 100 TWD at rate of >11.5 MYR. TWD dropped during the trip and VI charge me around 11.4 MYR for 100 TWD. I guess we just have to accept that there is a small degree of surprise element when we use cc oversea. Whether good or bad it will be just pure luck |

QUOTE(raist86 @ Dec 31 2014, 03:58 PM) Just got my card approved after going through the process of pledging 20k fd.. Short version, it was a nightmare. It was a hassle as the maybank branch didn't want to help me process. Mid valley card center told me should receive the card over the weekend. Maybank got promo now for 12 mth fd with 4% interest. best part, they pay the profit upfront. So that goes into another FD to earn interest on FD. They allow you to pledge your FD on the 4% promoBtw, saw that Starwood privillege is until 31 dec.. gosh.. i hope they renew this as this is one reason why i went for the card.. Wife & I used to hit Favola & Eest for their food.. I read that some of u guys get bonus TP. Is it from activating the card? I applied and got a supplimentary card for my wife. How much points total can get arr? The supplimentary card TP is together with main acc? I pledge and they tell me must be board rate -.- |

The simplest way is simply to write a letter to offer to pledge. The credit unit will then send you a letter to offer. Then just bring this to any branch. It can be frustrating frankly but I guess it is well worthy of the effort.
I think many of us has shared it is basically a 30k CL, you just top up via FD to 30k from your existing given CL by Maybank. |

For business class,
Zone 4 Japan / Korea / Aussie from 40k one way to 55k Zone 5 Europe / Nz from 55k one way to 75k If I am not mistaken kris flyer require something like 90k one way to Europe. MAS can still be affordable if there are discount but I guess the good old days are gone. |

QUOTE(raist86 @ Feb 11 2015, 10:55 AM) Eh want to check with you guys. Suggest you walk to card center, seems more lenient.I am currently holding 2 card platinum with around 73k TP from both card. I just called customer service to cancel the 2 card platinum but they say the TP from the plat card cannot be transferred to premier card due to points difference. Is it true? How did you guys bypass this? (For those to transferred points from gold or platinum to premier). |

QUOTE(Reventon @ Feb 16 2015, 12:36 PM) MBB is offering the card again but the tax for both card is RM100 compare to MBB2 kard which is RM50 ? , i heard the 2kard will be raise to RM100 this year? New M2K has been raised to 100, unless you are existing subscriber.Soon your M2K require 10k TP for 1k Enrich Miles while Premier 2 Card still offer 4.5k TP for 1k EM. Luxury do come with a price |
