Just wonder for the registration part, shall I register using my AMEX or Master card, or both?

Only one would do.

Redeemed GST with TP; already reflected the next day. Very efficient.

can, make sure u triple mention to the officer.

i would say both to be safe...
since it tie to the cc number instead...

one of the easiest gst "waiver" no begging needed. get my cashback, also got TPs to offset GST.

ahh ok! thanks!

Could anyone provide input on the above question?

I often use paypal to buy things online with both amex and mastercard. I didn't do the transactions at the same time. But I think it's more or less similar rates. And even if amex rate were to be slightly higher than visa/mastercard, 5X treatspoints for my MBB2 amex card (equivalent to about 2% cash-back) would still make amex as competitive as its rivals.

my paypal transactions were instant, no delay at all. I don't know where that guy got his info from.

Bro, you hit the nail, that's absolutely correct!

Last year dec a sales person from maybank booth told me as long as we spent 10k in this card, we will entitle to offset 50bucks gov tax just by calling up to call center. Did anyone successfully did that? I tried and I failed.. =_=

never try that before.

but i don't really mind to just redeem the gst with my tp. just spent rm2.5k (a year) and use the 12,500 tp to exchange for the rm50 gst. i think one can easily spend a few times higher than rm2.5k a year. so not a big issue.

Anybody tried upgrading their card to Platinum using EA form?

Yeap..I used points usually, but the salesperson told me to save the points for other usage since it can be waived..

hmm.. every time i called to ask to waive the GST.. they refused to and say cant do..
how do you get them to waive it?

She didn't said she had it waived. For MBB, your odds of getting GST waived is next to zero.

Hi guys I'm intending to apply for this card. Can I do that on The Gardens Maybank Card Centre on Saturday? I'm only need to prepare photocopy IC and 3 months pay slip right? They should be able to get my account statement easily

Yes you can BUT the 1-hour card approval only during Weekdays only.

ah thanks for the info. Thought I can get it on the spot

Do you all have face the problem that my maybank 2 amex gold suddenly disappear from my reward treat point list but the the card still apear in credit card list.please advice

Just checked treatpoints at M2U and realize that my amex principal and supp are not shown under the list. Only left with TPs from my MC. Suspecting it is a temp system glitch. Wondering if anybody faces the same prob?
