It will still be there. After awhile there will be a chargeback to balance your a/c.

i have a maybank mastercard, I am wondering if i want to buy something from Amazon USA, it seems they now offer 2 types of exchange rate deduction. Example, I want to buy a USD600 item.
1. Amazon does the exchange rate (1 USD = 3.4552836941 MYR)  and they will charge MYR to our credit card. (USD600 x3.4552836941 = RM2073.17 will be charged to my maybank card)

2. Maybank does the exchange rate. Meaning Amazon will charge us in the USD amount.  (this means USD600 will be charged to me directly)
my question would be, which is more worth it? get amazon rates or maybank rates? at the same time now, I pull the maybank website forex rate. USD is going for  USD1 = RM3.330

Always charge to the local currency. Dynamic Currency Converter rate is always more expensive.

thanks bro for the reply, so looks like we should be letting amazon earn the forex rate smile.gif

btw, if we have to let maybank to do the conversion, by when they will pull the exchange rate?

Oh! You misunderstood what i mean. For your case i refer local currency as USD. The exchange rate of 3.455 is Dynamic Currency Converter rate. The forex spot rate now is only 3.29 . If you choose Amazon exchange rate your trnx will be at least RM50 more expensive !

For the 100% CB Promo when pumping petrol using MBB CC if time of payment approval is 9:58am (pre-approved amt rm200) and time of completion of transaction is 10:00(final amt rm120), which time will MBB use for the First-come-first-serve criteria?

Most probably pre authorised time because that is the time that is recorded on the trnx.

how often the maybank will call up to offer you an upgrade?

Whenever there is a new product launch, they will offer to their elite customer.

Had to agree MBB card durability is not the best among my cards. Anyway they are much better than those pre EMV magnetic stripe cards. Those days you use the card 10 times the hologram sudah calar kuat kuat biggrin.gif
