i think so.... but i'm just questioning bout the weekend 5% cash rebate.
so technically if i settle all my bills in the weekend, im entitle for the 5% cash rebate and 5x TP instead of the normal 5x TP only when i do direct debit.

correct??

nod.gif if you make the transaction with your amex card on weekend, you are entitled

apple store malaysia do manual processing..
if they didnt call you to verify your card on weekend, it will not be process until they call u..
but still, using amex is a better option..if cant get 5% rebate, you still have 5x TP..
use amex, lower exchange rate than visa and you will get 5x TP too..

I thought AMEX exchange rate is not as good as visa... thing changed? hmm.gif

Exchange rate for both are more or less the same. The problem here is the 'add on' for foreign trnx. For AMEX trnx, a single charge of 2.5% by AMEX, bank do not charge. For Visa trnx, a charge of 1% by Visa and 0.5 % by Maybank.

I agree with you.... blush.gif

this doesnt make sense..based on your info..

AMEX = 2.5%
Visa = 1.5%

but the comparison i get is AMEX rate is lower than Visa..
perhaps Visa fees already increase for mbb card?
*
Hmm.. I'm not sure if they change the rate, but this is the rate observed... hmm.gif

below are my transactions.

VISA

AMEX
[attachmentid=4080345]

so you decide yourself smile.gif

For USD, Amex may be better. It is after all AMERICAN EXPRESS biggrin.gif
For other currency, it is best use VISA/MASTER, as Amex will always convert the currency to USD then convert back to MYR which most of the time get lower rates.

Not true. Effective exchange rate sometime VS/MC is same with Amex. Like mention, sometime even more expensive.

blink.gif Ooo... okay. This is something new for me.
Always read that AMEX do double conversion and together with their admin fee will most of the time be more expensive hmm.gif
Only way to find out is swipe both card about the same time and wait for your statement. laugh.gif

that sucks. why is there a USD 1 charge?

It is just like pump petrol at petrol kiosk, they will swipe 200 at start end once the transaction end, revert back the remainder.
The USD1 will not be in your statement
