if you have to pay for the annual fees, then yes, you need to pay for the 6%gst..
if you able to get the waive, then no gst will charge on you

Last month I requested 30% increase in my CL as my children tuition fees were to be paid with their Supp VI. Then I wanted to buy a watch where the dealer accepts AMEX plus 0% Installment Plan for Maybank CC. I know I have use up close to my credit limit. So I called Maybank Premier Card CS to check my available credit limit and was told I already overshot my temporary increase in CL by RM10K (and yet Maybank approved my transactions, I really like Maybank).

The watch cost me around RM30K. So, if I want to use my MBB AMEX Reserve, I need at least RM40K increase in CL after taking into consideration of the RM10K I have overshot.

The other option is go bank in immediately RM40K but my funds were stuck. 

It was after 12pm when I spoke to MBB CS and I wanted to get the watch before 5pm. Told CS my predicament and requested for RM50K increase in CL. CS said she will inform the relevant department and that I need the temporary CL increase urgently.

And if I want to go with 0% Installment Plan using my AMEX Reserve, I have to bank in more than RM40K into my CC account immediately so that I have available credit limit of RM30K below my normal assigned CL.

But when I reach my watch dealer before 5pm, still no call from MBB, so use my UOB credit card instead for 0% Installment Plan.

At around 6.30pm, MBB called me to inform me they have approved my request, but I told them I already bought the watch. And the lady actually apologized for the delay!!! I should be thanking them for approving the temp increase in CL in just a few hours time. Pretty efficient if you ask me.

Is there a maximum temporary limit that we can request for? 

Then you try to request up to maximum, see how much they can give...

Bad news coming... From now on, only 12x entry per year !! Just confirm with CS after knowing the new ruling from VS thread. VS, VI & AR all kena!

now the good choice is holing MBB2 Premier + MBB VS..
this way you could get 24x free entries to Malaysia PPL + 5 times international PPL 

i foresee they will downgrade the Priority Pass free entries in future 

Ya loh, Maybank gone crazy......

Really bad news for MBB VS cardholders but not so bad for MBB VI because we started off with 5X FREE entries with the Priority Pass Membership Card, so, with 5X FREE entries to PPL nationwide, not too bad.

Aiyah, I cancelled my stand alone VI few months back. Maybe I should go and get it reinstated so that I can get another 5X FREE entries with the card to PPL + another 5X FREE entries with the PPMC. Then combined with the Maybank 2 Cards Premier, I will have 20 FREE entries, hahaha.

Aiyah, I forgot to ask MBB CS if Supp card entries combined or separate but I got a strong feeling it is combined. That's why I reactivated my stand alone VI.

i am confuse now...VI get 12visit or 5 visit? 

time to get Visa Infinite Diamante then..
so the 5 time access is for both principal and supplementary or separate for each card?

The CS just call me.

From 1 jan to 31 july. It is unlimited. 1 aug to 31 dec. It is 5x.
next year 1 jan to 31 dec is 5x. And onwards.

Sup card is independent 5x per card. If u got 4 sup card. It is 20x entry.

haha, but can I still sent my posts for you to proof read Sis?

Yah, I also did not know our VI Supp card can enter for FREE until sifu zenquix mentioned it in the airport lounge thread.
Thank you Sir reporting.

I also just called MBB and happy to report that I was told the same exact thing again 

Compare at economy class ticket, award ticket is slight cheaper for long haul and expensive for short.

Compare at business class ticket, award ticket is very cheap for long haul.

In term of value, the longer distance more worth.

Especially if u find those route cover by CX/KA.

sound like new card is coming to the shore 

Maybank into car industry? 

Lower income requirement made the premier card not so premier, and the AsiaMiles available seat is getting harder n harder to get 

I got it too... as long as it's free, it is good ..the 2nd contest I've won
The 1st one was eligible to buy samsonite 20" luggage for rm8.
