QUOTE(bananayummy @ Jun 16 2016, 04:43 PM) seems like the Maybank Islamic MasterCard Ikhwan Gold Card only applied to friday and saturday for 5% rebate I did mention in my reply above. "Maybank Ikhwan is free AF but cash back for petrol and groceries only on Fridays and Saturdays." This post has been edited by fruitie: Jun 16 2016, 04:46 PM

UOB VOX for air ticket and online purchases. You can also get CIMB CR for online purchases if they are below RM 50 because VOX's cash back is only for RM 50 and above (per transaction). I feel that you will get more cash back this way than using a general card. This post has been edited by fruitie: Jun 19 2016, 10:15 AM

SCB Gold card could be replace for Aeon Watami

5. Looking at CC from: any bank, but I've identified PBB Visa Sig and maybe RHB WMC
6. Others: Cash back or air miles or free lounge entries
