1.25% compare to 3%, 5% and 10%?

First, you need to understand the needs of all people.
Some loves to convert points to Enrich Miles, shopping vouchers and etc.
Second, not every category has all those rebates you mentioned up there.
Third, you may argue 3% Watami covers most of the expenses but not all spends at least RM 3k per quarter.

Lastly, not many like to wait for rebate to get accumulated. One month later or next month also complained much! whistling.gif

Don't forgot ...
Most of the 3, 5 or 10% Cash back CC do come with Annual fee+6% GST
While M2C or Islamic ikhwan CC is Lifetime Fee Waivers...

Refer to my post's third point. smile.gif

For a frequent traveller, TP conversion to EM comes handy to upgrade to business class and redeem free tickets. So, TP is useful for some but maybe not you.

Why do you need this card anymore? It is worthless junk now. Except if you eat outside every weekends.

In some sense it is a junk card, but still, it can pay almost everything, as long as the merchant accepting it.
And redeem AeonBig gift card and use it on 28th you are getting rm110.25.

Er, you got aeon in Penang right? Just go to their customer service counter and apply. No need for watami store. sweat.gif Not sure if you can apply from aeon big. If I am not mistaken can. (check again on aeon big).

Spend anything with Aeon watami except petrol and I forgot what, max RM1k/month and get 3% cashback. Easy to reach. Rather than use M2Card.

From what I know, one of the way to get a watami is like I said, go to their customer service counter and apply.

rm1k/month average (rm3k/quarter) is min to get 3%, not max. max is rm5k/quarter.

on paper, m2card amex for sure ranks the lowest. of course compare with others, even Mach or Ikhwan sapu amex.

however, 5% cb weekend dining and unlimited 5X TPs is still so-so OK la, not until "worthless junk"-level la.

i still used it for weekend dining (than using Mach) and pay TNB.


highly not recommended to be primary card; just treat it as 3rd/4th/5th card or use it as "reward" card instead laugh.gif

If one don't eat outside? TNB can be paid using HLB ise for maximum CB.

Aiya, if we want to keep, then we keep la. doh.gif
If you don't want, then don't keep la, if you have one la. We already stated our reasons and yet you still argue with us.
Whatever you mentioned, we know the cards in and out very well. smile.gif
We also have other cards la. doh.gif

even better if dont eat outside.

adoi, u are thinking 1 card to cover everyone and everything meh? or 1 card for every type of payment meh?




again, on paper, every cards out there can cover everything. but in fact, it doesnt work that way la, there are many restrictions (e.g. income level, dsr, etc etc)

i would rather having less cards = less spending = less liability = better cashflow/lowest debt = more meaningful & quality life! thumbup.gif

Not arguing. Just wondering why would one want to keep a card that is no longer competitive?

Reasons
QUOTE
- Weekend cashback on dining
- TP points for frequent fliers
- Collect points for coupon
- Anything else?
