Instant card approval at places like 1 Utama credit card center is possible.
Basically there is an automated algorithm in their system that can advise approval (or otherwise) within seconds.

Likewise on how I got my RHB card on a Sunday within 20 minutes.

Meeting minimum spending of 50k and still not waived??!!
If I am your friend, I would have lodge a HUGE complaint to maybank already.

Neither.

Not true also.

Many many years ago, I walked in to branch to cancel card. They cut it into 2 and that's it. No letter whatsoever.

Correct. Retention period of the voice recording is typically 180 days for contact center.

1 Utama pun boleh

If I remember correctly, this is not a change at the bank, but rather at the merchant of your installments.

If you qualify for VS, go for it. But bear in mind of the AF requirement.

I can see on Gold, too.

Strange.... how come what I see is different from yours. The 5% dining cashback is gone, too.

Apart from home, never never leave your credit cards away from you.

the strange thing is, during the TP devaluation hooha in April, when everyone is redeeming their TPs before it loses its value, the card center just use the total points from both VS and normal card's TP together, there was no differentiation between these 2 TPs as per what mentioned on the bank's website.

So, are they really separated? I wonder.

Can I safely assume that all TP from Amex card 2 can be transferred to VS if one decided to cancel Amex card 2 come August?

and 1st August basically started yesterday (Monday).

I believe it's an intention to get cash rebates by paying using credit cards via M2U.

Not sure I understand what it meant by 'they will order FULL AMOUNT of what I paid'.

I've gotta say, this is staying OT.

Not really.
