Yea, will use VI when I pay for some hotels during my Japan trips.

Just that some i booked via Agoda using Amex to be sure (booked and pay/charged later). These few days, it charged to my CC and i was comparing the exchange rate.

Agoda auto-convert to MYR for you and charge you 4-5% on the rate....

Agoda just being sneaky to earn 5% on your forex for "Book Now, Pay Later" Option

If you display the prices in MYR, they won't give you the option to choose which currency to be charged (Yen in my case) at the CC payment part.

To prevent this, you have to choose to show hotel prices in Yen, then only the option for payment to be charged in Yen (later on) appears...

Well a new lesson learnt for me

Don’t really need a bank account with the bank you are applying CC for.

But make sure u have other bank account or CC so that you have a credit history in CCRIS.

Thanks for reminding.

Will reload my Boost account hehe

Keep remaining bullet for last game of the month

Got, went last month. If u make online reservation, i think they’ll call you. You can double check with them.

Only those hotels under SPG got changes i think i.e less discounts for premium cardholders

This is getting out of hand. Like /k only

Sigh

Last year had to accompany my wife on her work trip to India. Per company policy, her MAS flight was booked thru a travel agent.

I booked online and got a cheaper fare for business class return than her economy return lol. MAS website also showed higher price for economy than business.

Boost can now reload with Amex.....

This year or this month

Edit
Ninja edit haha

Lemon Garden - go for their seafood dinner buffet. Got snow crab

Their other cuisine also very good. Satay, pizza, double boiled soup etc.

Only downside is there’s no drinks station and the ice-cream section is manned. Need to be thick-faced to ask for 2nd or 3rd helpings

Yeap, just included last week I think

only principal

Grind into dust then swallow only la

Don't want dwell on the benefits since different ppl have different circumstances. For e.g. having unlimited access to MAS Lounge is moot since you got entry when you book/redeem MAS business class anyway. That's why I value more Maybank VI 5x access to international PPL

On conversion miles and solely based on VI 2x TP

Oversea spend - WEMC is RM1 per miles (up to 150k miles per year), VI is RM0.90 per miles

Local spend - WEMC is RM2 per miles (up to 150k miles per year), then de-grade to RM4 per miles
VI at 2x TP = RM2.25 per miles with no cap

So yeah, there's your reason why other cards can't even come close to Maybank Visa Infinite...let alone the 5x TP for AMEX Reserve

It’s 20% at Sheraton Imperial.

They said the higher discount for premium cardholders not valid anymore and Maybank didn’t update their website

It’s inevitable.

Bank Negara or even global central banks are phasing out cheques transsctions.

Less fraud, more secure and more importantly, traceable to switch to online transactions

Yes you can

You guys need to take a chill pill every time MU plays lol

It’s waived if you can meet the minimum spending

Not sure why my Boost can't topup with Amex today.

Since I need to use, I 'gamble' and topup with MU VI =D
