Possible, I have changed before.

KLCC no longer issues cards within 60 minutes. If you want to submit forms, yes that's possible because it is also opened during weekends but not for fast card issuance. 1U still has 60 minutes.
When I was in Gardens to redeem vouchers few months ago, I overheard a conversation between the officer and a customer, she told him they will do fast card issuance on weekdays, not sure how true is that.

Yes, nothing. Just standard package.
Gen-X also didn't receive any free gift for MBA purchase from All IT.

at least there are free gift offered
if choosing 0% EPP vs free gift..anytime I would choose 0% EPP...
those free gift they usually give not worth a lot.

Thanks.
is there any fees for changing the card type?

Yeah. My best friend bought an iPad Mini 3 64GB before 1st April for only RM 1399, courtesy of my TP redemption. I redeemed 200 bucks from HN, she's so happy. Actually most of the time, she was the one spending for me so the points were collected by her.

No fees. You will still need to continue using your existing card till the new card is ready.

For monthly autodebit payment for insurance, can we get 5% cashback and 2x Treatspoints using the Maybank 2 Card Amex?

yes. assuming your insurance accept amex and the autodebit falls on weekends

but very unlikely the auto debit will fall on weekends.

I use my new platinum Amex card at shell last night and pump rm42++ petrol. This is my first swipe. Then, I receive a Sms below :

RM0.00 MBB:TQ for using your Maybankard ending 8164 for MYR250.00 AT SHELL - JLN IPOH BT 17\BA PO;20/06/15;19:44.For enq call num at back of your card

Then I quickly call CS. They said it's normal coz they capped the max. limit between 200 to 250. Bank will reverse back the amount few days. Does anyone get this kind of Sms b4?

When I use the gold card to pump petrol, I don't get this kind of Sms. Really make me sweat...

Yes, that is normal. Probably your gold card is not set or set at a higher amount for sms alert.

Also, it is normal for the bank to send notification sms for the first swipe of a new card. If you have not set your sms alert, I'd suggest you to set it up and set your trigger amount. It is handy.

Since it was the first time you used the card, maybe that's why you were sent a SMS. Maybank unlike other banks do not have a default value to trigger a SMS to be sent out but based on your spending pattern - unless they have changed it not long ago.

As for Petrol, it is normal to get RM200 SMS if you swipe at the pump terminals.

Anyway, if you have not called CS to set your default value to RM1 to trigger SMS alert, do it immediately.

Went to ALL IT as that time my daughter was considering either a Windows notebook or MacBook Air. Harvey Norman did not have the Windows Notebook she was considering.

Anyway, nowadays I only convert my TP to Enrich to fly Business Class as it gives me "more in returns" compared to vouchers.

Those who are interested to redeem Enrich Miles (or KrisFlyer Miles), please click here to read my Comprehensive Review of The Best Credit Cards for Redeeming Frequent Flyer Miles.

In the above mentioned tutorial, you will learn that with the Maybankard 2 AMEX, you will earn 1 Enrich Mile for every RM2.12 spent. So, for example, if you do spend RM2500 per month with the Maybankard 2 Cards AMEX, within 3 years you would have earned 42,452 Enrich Miles where you can upgrade an Economy Class ticket to London (one way) versus redeeming RM1,125 cash voucher (400TP = RM1). Well upgrade to Business Class to London (12 hours direct) is definitely worth more than RM1.1K. That is if MBB and or Enrich do not inflate their redemption in the future

For your info, Enrich Miles can be used to redeem flights with other airlines under the One World Umbrella.

All IT did offer me a RM50 voucher for the MacBook Air but I chose not to accept it but instead go with 0% Installment Plan with no additional surcharge using my MBB VI. But if one willing to pay in full for the MBA, he/she might get the FREE RM50 voucher or other Free gift at ALL IT.

The thing with Harvey Norman Windows notebook - I have gotten discount from them twice BUT then cannot opt for 0% installment plan. Can only opt for 0% Installment Plan if pay RRP price.

Guys, now can't pay Astro bill using AMEX at m2u? Last month can, but this month only visa..weird

Yup i tried too but option not avail anymore... suckss

Lets we all make a request to MBB/M2U to add astro in amex cc payment via M2U.

Thanks. Meaning only 1U have fast card issuance and it can only be done in weekdays right?

Just a heads up: took Maybank 3 hours to get my card ready at 1U

Did u go on weekend or weekdays?
If weekdays is it on Friday or what time did u reach the card center?

Weekday (but not Friday) at 12pm. I don't think MBB is promoting the "get your card within 60 minutes" thing anymore anyway. It's not mentioned on their website and the staff at the card centre that handled my application said that it would take more than an hour. The videos on the TV screen outside the card centre still has it though

I see.. perhaps 12pm due to officer going for lunch?
