Just got called by Maybank, they say that my application for Maybankard 2 Platinum is approved. BUT, I need to pledge RM8,000 fixed deposit before they can process it further. They say that if my salary is credited to Maybank account (which I still don't have), they might be more lenient of the FD requirement. Quite unfortunate since that may not be possible.

No, my annual income definitely meets the requirement, by twice even. Probably it's because I'm a foreigner and that this is my first credit card. Ah well, I just need to save more then.

Not bad!

Pay 2 months of Unifi bill (vip5 @ RM150) then automatically qualified. Furthermore will get about RM15 cash back from it as well.

Those with high tnb bill oso good already.

hmmm from the t&c stated:
that means 1 entry for every RM300 (cumulative)? if within the campaign period i've spent RM900+, i will get 3 entries? 

also i think as long as transaction made in M2U to pay utility bills/assessment fees, it's already qualified.

lemme call up Maybank for info

*updates from Maybank:

1) All payees under Utilities and Assessment category in M2U-Bill Payment will be qualified.
2) Cumulative of RM300 will qualify for 1 entry. Multiple of RM300 will be counted as n-th entry, e.g. RM600 will get 2 entries, RM900 will get 3 entries, and so on.
3) No restriction on transaction count, e.g. you can pay your Unifi or TNB bills multiple times. As long as total qualified amount meets the RM300/entry criteria, you'll get 1 entry.

seems ok though 

Hi Bro and sister,
Just wanna to confirm. I understand that the cash back period is based on calendar month from 1st until 30th of the month. I have used up my RM50 cash back portion for May by spending more than 1000 this month. But, I just swipe my card today 31 May with RM200. If today transaction posted on 1 June, will it consider as June cash back portion or May due to transaction date?

he will not get the cashback as his quota has been used.

If the quota is not maxed out, transaction in May and posted in June, the cash back will eat up June's quota. This has been tested before. There is a table by Ronnie at 1st page.

Up to yesterday I still believe what you said.
But after 12pm today, I'm sure you were misleading us.
A photo tell the thousand words

As said, the photo tell the thousand stories.
Transaction done on 31st of May while it never show on the 1st of June till 23:59 just before I sleep. But show on 2nd.
And the CB by MBB are May's transaction will be bank in on the same month as 1st month I hit rm1000 on weekend and I got the CB on that month also. Every merchant shall do a settlement from their CC machine so most of the time it will be posted on the same day.
And from the photo also you can see all the transaction date are same as posting date. I never encounter different date so far on MBB cards unlike HLB can drag up to 9 days.
And as confirmed by the officer, the CB are calculated based on transaction date.

Btw, this is also mean that is possible to get more than RM50 rebate e.g. RM52.5, because RM2.5 is bring forward from earlier month where rebate is not included. Right?

Well, a photo of screen shoot will be good

Im using AMEX.
