Hi,
    I am facing difficulty verifying the amex card to my paypal account. I am not sure what is wrong with it but when i try to verify, it says it is invalid card. Anyone having this problem before? Thanks

U would also need to confirm your amex card with paypal, rm10 will be charged which will be reimburse later to paypal account

12,500 TP for Principle
6,250 TP per card for Supplementary, which comes up to the same as Principle

The card level doesn't matter.

What matters is either Principal or Supplementary.

are you saying that paypal not secure enough?

it is true that AMEX are not secured enough..
but i think all the case happen here are not related to paypal at all..
almost all the case are directly to merchant...

Is there any way to increase credit limit on MBB2C Gold other than going to Menara Maybank?anyway to do online?

i am unlucky this month. Swiped for about RM965 on 1 March alone. Miscalculated that I need to pay Unifi!

As of today, my CB quota already hit RM49.99. FML 

3 more weekends to pump petrol (estimated RM4.50 CB "loss"). Now stop all retail spending until April come 
p/s: At petrol pump, how do you set a fixed amount before pumping? Still couldnt figure it out LOL 

i can control my spending to sub-1K per month. mbb2amex is darn good for me liao.

i cannot, however, spend so much just to qualify for 10xRM50 per transaction in a month. if no such qualifier, i'd have gotten this card longggggg time ago.

my spending behavior: petrol pump in a week is around 30-35, enough for around 300KM, and with some to spare. telco bill is <RM30 per line (postpaid). seldom dine out or doing groceries (1-2 times per month only). no utilities bill to pay (due to low usage, already subsidized fully by tnb/syabas).

most of my high-spending (every few months) is not in WISE's cashback category (computer parts, car accessories). Unifi is not qualified for cashback. splitting bills to 3xRM50 is not "wise" considering i can easily get around RM7.50 cashback with mbb2amex already. WISE give me none.

so WISE is not practical for my spending.    banks doesnt make much money from me via credit card  bottom line, i save more by spending less.

Hi everyone.. I have a tricky question here about converting credit card into cash with minimise cost by using Maybank Amex... I need the help from you all to answer whether my explanation is correct or wrong..

First, register two paypal account under your name. second, top up one of your paypal account by using Maybank Amex during weekend to enjoy 5% cash back. (ie: RM1,000)
Next, withdrawal the money that you transfer to your second paypal account to any local bank in Malaysia. (with fees 3.9% +RM2 reduction).

Overall, we still gain because the fees we paid was RM39+RM2=RM41, but the cash back we earn was RM50! and at the same time... we get the cash!

Any idea anyone?

yeah, for me, i wanted to pay my parent's utility bills too but my father prefer to get bill first before paying. We had many times tnb/syabas double-charged us becaue they didnt capture previous month's payment and automatically assume we didnt pay at all. Many times we've gone to the offices just to dispute the bills

Haha.. I mean for people who need cash badly.. this will be the alternative instead of borrowing money
from the banks or others.. the max cash back RM50 is another topic.. 
If your main focus was the RM50 cash back.. then you are right.. 

Sorry guys, need some help on Maybank AMEX. If i do purchasing online using AMEX at foreign website (ex. Levi's US) which do accept AMEX, will i get 5x point too? The 5x cash rebate will only valid if the processed transaction fall on weekend, am i correct?

maybank2u bill payment for tm(streamyx) cannot choose amex anymore
need to use alternate tm(phone and multimedia) to pay streamyx using amex

hey to all the sifus here, few questions i want to ask =P

(I am only eligible to apply for the gold cards)

1) No cashback given on weekdays at all?
2) If the place accept AMEX, then confirm I will get the 5X points?
3) AMEX can be used for online payments? (umobile bill, lelong.com.my purchases, TNB bill)
4) Not listed but just in case someone already went to these places, could you tell me if you still get 5% or not:
- Shell station section 17 IZZARA/CHIN NYIT SIN
5) I know the points can be used to rebate GST (12500 for RM50), but other than that any use for it? I'm considering whether or not to get another card (ocbc titanium) for non-weekend transactions if the points are not very useful. Any forums that has the full list of claimable items?

Finally, apologies for asking all these and not researching myself. Honestly I try to find and read but sometimes the more I read the more confused I get :S. Really sorry for inconvenience caused! Thanks in advance for your replies!

You are giving WRONG information. 5x TP for AMEX is EVERYDAY. Additional 5% cash back for AMEX is during weekends only. Read 1st post.

Refer to the TP catalogue to see what items can be redeemed. Only apply for OCBC and/or Wise if you will gain benefits from them. Refer to their features.

Haha, so you also just know about the 5x TP 

cybpsych nice 

Hi fellow seniors, I did stumble upon with number of previous replies in regards to AMEX unauthorized transactions. What would be the best workaround to safely use AMEX for online transactions? Would Paypal somehow will reduce the risk? My another concern is, is it by paying TnB, Unifi, DG or even Movie Ticketing be it (TGV or GSC) by AMEX through online transactions would also increase the risk of getting exploit? 

if you haven't exhausted your RM50/month rebate then its cheaper to use AMEX on weekends because of the 5% rebate and 5x TP.
if you've already exhausted it then use the Mastercard as it offers lower Admin fees

so use the AMEX until you've spend RM1000, then use the Mastercard

use cash mean no TP at all..
at least use Visa/MC still got points..
unfinish cash will have to exchange money back to RM which will lose during exchange..

so use AMEX all the way is better
