i am in the process of applying for the maybank 2 card. so far used normal visa / mastercard, never tried Amex.

Question: Do chain-shops like 99 Speedmart, NSK, CS, MyMydin Mart etc accept Amex and thus can get 5% cash back?

thanks for the link..i guess not all shops accept the amex, even under same name/franchise.

if they accept, means got cash back or not necessarily?

upon checking list, seems that for average daily user mbb2 amex is great for petrol during weekends, but not accepted for most small groceries (except big one)..

what other mastercard/visa cc to complement this card which offer cash back?

my mbb2 amex and visa gold just approved.

my question:

for 5% CB, statement/receipt of purchase date must be on sat or sunday, at what exactly the time, 12.01 am sat to 11.59 pm sun?

i remember reading in previous post, friday also can get the 5% cb?

So, considering another card to complement mbb2 : Maybank Ikhwan Mastercard Gold card-i

Then this card can be used on Friday-Saturday, 12.01 am fri to 11.59 pm sat, is it?

The card will be accepted at shops where they do not accept Amex.

so go shopping at 10am everyday to get the cashback?

if on weekends then get +5% somemore?
