I calculated the air miles multiplier for MUVI.
2x for local. 5x for overseas.
Doesn't tally with the statement. Down by 16.7% vs my manual calc.

Who do I email for TreatsPoints dispute ?

Wanna confirm : If RM 207.52
& multiplier = 2
TP = 207 x2 OR 207.52 x2 ?

Just call CS, several forumers has similar issues before

Chasing miles is an expensive habit. Must have deep pocket

Its not considered really chasing miles if whatever we spend are mostly required expenses biggrin.gif

Of course those who spend just to gain miles is another story la haha

Finally jumped on the 2 cards bandwagon! =D
That RM80K spending is a little scary.

Things I've done:
1. SMS notification to RM1 minimum spending.
2. Separated supplementary statements so they can pay for their own bills.
3. Moved all my auto-billing transactions to the new cards.

Btw, they did not allow the transfer of treatpoints from my old cards to the new ones. I was told prior to applying that I could transfer tho. =(

Welcome to Miles hunting group biggrin.gif

Tps are not transferable recently as per some forumer's report.. Maybe few months back or so

ok thanks

btw I'm just curious

lets say I have a 2 year old plus kid, no more free air tix
so I redeem 2 biz class for me and my wife, is it possible I just purchase or redeem an economy for my kid? but the kid would be sitting with us at the biz area
or I need to redeem 3 biz class seat for the family?
*
Its definitely possible to purchase such ticket but I dont think the airline will allow your child to sit with you. Anyways you can call them airlines and ask biggrin.gif

sigh... 3 biz class tic
then just redeem 3 economy seat more worthwhile hahah

cos by right kids under dunno what age must take off with accompanied with an adult.

Collect more points to bring your kids along brows.gif

Not worth to exchange for economy seats. Or maybe put your kids with your parents or inlaws and bring ur waifu for honeymoon rclxm9.gif

https://unifi.com.my/ no longer allows payment via Amex. I know I tried last year & they still allow payment with Amex.

Also, TMpoint in Klang no longer allows payment via Amex. I know I tried last year & they still allow payment with Amex.

Previously paid Unifi with UOB @ JomPay.

Anyone know which Kedai Telekom or TMpoint allows Amex payment ? Pls state the district area & road.

I pay using Maybank2U app for all my unifi bills using my AMEX card

redeem two business class ticket..
buy eco class for kid and upgrade to business with points?
this way would be lesser miles

QUOTE(yoonyin @ Sep 17 2019, 02:47 PM)
For me, i will redeem 2 business class for your family member and fork out the money and buy yourself another business class seat. Then you can earn miles by paying the ticket and also travel on paid ticket can accumulate the 125%-150% flown miles to your FFP.
*
Good suggestions as well. Just whether if he is willing to pay that sum for exchange of points biggrin.gif

For me Ill just continue collecting till I have enough or pay minimal before traveling

You are asking in the Maybank 2 Cards Premier section.

So you should know what we will recommend right?

Thanks. They did not need to ask for the 4-digit card ?

Doubt they need the 4 digit CVV. There is an option called offline purchasing (needs to be activated for certain banks) where they only require your name, card number and expiry date to make a valid purchase

For this time it's only 1 bonus credited on the Chelsea game, whether they gave me 3x or 4x is easily spotted in statement.

I don't blame them for the mistake, it's been a while since Man Utd won a game.

Eh tabuli ini machiem. We are customers and this is consider cheating/negligence on their part.

They should have a solid system to keep track of such things. I wouldnt expect less for one of the top if not the top local Banks

i don't enjoy fine dining...... i prefer nasi lemak over fine dining and thats the only reason i will get suites cuz they offered 1  laugh.gif  laugh.gif  laugh.gif
never thought of splurging on suites yet... cuz kinda wasted as i sleep most of the time, i dont get to enjoy their service, i feel the bed is just the same as biz class  tongue.gif

Its ok bro... As long as you like it, suite or business cause you are the one that feels it. Different people have different experience.

Yea I know some ppl who hate fine dining and prefer hawker stalls haha... Penang lang definitely prefer hawkers flex.gif

Of course for you that have been travelling very often on biz, you wont feel much d... Numb liao

For new ppl like me that hardly sits on biz class, different haha
