I am so delighted that TGV now has buy 1 free 1 promotion with Amex card on every Thursday, while normal day is RM10/ticket only.

Cheap movie ticket, x5 points & another 5% discount for weekend, aww perfect for movie goers like me biggrin.gif

Does the discount apply for online purchasing as well?

NO! over the counter payment only

Thanks for the reply!

They should enable it for online purchasing as well. It is so hard to find good seats when buying over the counter near showtimes. vmad.gif

I have the MBB 2 Card Gold and I am qualified for the Platinum 2 Card. Should I go for it? Is there any hidden benefit that I had to sacrifice to obtain the Platinum Card? Or is there any extra cost in getting the Platinum (eg: annual fee)?
And if I can just called the card centre asking for an upgrade without submitting any document? I maintain all my banking account with maybank
*
Why not if you are qualified? There is no extra cost since you also need to pay RM50 GST for gold. Though you have to prove that your annual income qualified for platinum so I guess you need to show them your payslips or EPF statement.

Hello sifu I haven't got my MBB2 card yet but they already shown in my MB2u. Problem is I remembered I requested for Mastercard but they gave me visa instead. Which one is better? Can I request for a change since I already got MBB visa debit card?

Master and Visa basically are same, except AMEX.
If you have M2U, this is normal. Mine are shown on first week when the form submitted. You applied the cards on branch or booth in shopping complex?
*
I applied the cards at their branch. Have been waiting for nearly a month now. So even though it shows visa in MB2U, I actually can still get mastercard? hmm.gif

Not really, once shown on system, you have to apply to change it. But so far any merchant that accept Visa will accept Mastercard also.
And once you got this combination, you will be using AMEX most of the time only unless they are not accepting AMEX.

QUOTE(victorywp @ Apr 15 2014, 11:56 AM)
does it matter so much to you whether it's a mastercard or visa? i think when you get the card, you will be using amex more instead of mastercard or visa (for maximum benefits).

anyway, if that really matters, you may call the cs and request them to change the visa to mastercard saying that you did mentioned during your application that you wanted for a mastercard instead of visa.

for your information, there is no difference between mastercard and visa because both are widely accepted. the difference are mainly on exclusive promotion done by mastercard or visa. for example, get 10% discount on agoda with visa on wednesday or get 10% discount on universal studio sg entrance ticket with mastercard (previous promo).
*
Thanks for the advice!

As I mentioned earlier I already have MB visa debit so I prefer to have mastercard instead for the extra flexibility. Amex will be the top priority of course but unfortunately not many places I frequent accept Amex cry.gif

Just called CS and she said I need to submit the change form at MB branch. vmad.gif why they can't just do it over the phone

Watami card also got unlimited point earn rm1 = 1 points.
If dine in watami get 2x points, oversea spending get 2x points too.

The point could directly redeem cash back, rate is rm50=12500 points, so is same with maybank visa/master. But yet better coz maybank 0.4%rate is counted by their GST redeem, not like pure cash back redeem on watami
All digi center with koisk machine accept amex
I usually pay using koisk machine on times square or the garden
*
Thanks for the info. Will try my luck next time at the garden. They should really accept amex for online payment to make our life easier mad.gif

btw, anyone knows if the kiosk machine at ss2 accept amex? It says it is 24 hour so I'm hoping to try to pay by amex tomorrow

check the cc numbers whether it matches or not, sign your card.

btw, what is the purpose of signing your card? Wouldn't that make it easier for people to imitate your signature if the card was stolen?

That, or the person who stole/found the card, signed the card and can sign freely on the receipts without the need to imitate the signature?

btw guys i have a question regarding agoda book now and pay later option.

I wonder if it is possible to negotiate with them to charge the payment earlier during weekend to enjoy the 5% rebate since the original date they charged is on weekdays?

Guys I just paid the full amount in my latest statement according to the statement balance but I noticed that only the minimum balance goes to zero but the statement balance still remains the same in MB2u. Is this normal? It did recorded my payment but won't the statement balance goes to zero too?
