anyone tried paying utilities using posmalaysia online payment? can use the Amex or VI card to get at least 2x TP?
*
even if its work, its not worthwhile because posonline do charge 2% for cc convenient fee.

I would love to find out how you can pay a TT with a credit card.  biggrin.gif
Even if it were possible, the fees involved is typically a lot higher than just paying straight to the merchant, assuming the merchant accepts cards.
*
Easiest way is Paypal, but like u said, the fee is too high

Given your level of spending can't you qualify for the Maybank Diamante? Does that still qualify for 5x TP?

You need roughly 800k AM/KF/Enrich?
*
Premier CS forward my request to Diamante department, unfortunately they said spending pattern is not eligible for it, by invitation only.

For the 5x, need dctravels to clarify it.

I need 750k AM for the next trip, or will have to cut down some leg.

Has anyone tried before transferring the points to a frequent flyer programme under different name? Is is allowed? I'm asking because I might have huge company spending in future, hence I'll definitely have too much points balance. Thinking transferring some of it to my family members and relatives. I know for Enrich, I can buy the tickets on behalf and for Asia Miles I can maintain up to 5 friends and families account. But it's troublesome each time I have to buy for them. Moreover if I really have too much points might consider trading it too (not sure if it's allowed though if I trade the points through transfer directly from credit card to others' frequent flyer account). I know ethically selling points are not allowed. Need some help here as I'll really be flooded with points very soon.
*
Unfortunately u're not allowed to transfer your Maybank treat point to 3rd party frequent flyer account anymore. They cross check the name.

If we apply for the Maybank 2 Premier, will it "replace" my existing Maybank 2 Platinum ?
Can we apply at The Gardens Card Center ?

Not sure because I have not paid anything more than 200.
Well, if it's 500, then have to split more.
*
tat's why i wonder when someone mention 1k per counter. It's always been 500 to me.

Sam's here only 3~4 counter open, sometimes I need to wait for them to open. Still have a lot outstanding to pay and I have to shift the usage to other cards.

herc is it confirmed that your tnb bills paid at Sam's is giving you the 5x TP after the recent annoucement by Maybank?
I think Maybank will see at least 30% drop in their card usage with this new revision and hopefully they will do something to stop the bleeding.
*
yes confirmed, any bill u pay there is considered as groceries, 5X TP no problem.

paying 10k bills there is applicable and not too hard to achieve, but imagine mine is 40k

40K ?? my goodness you must have racked up a few million points by now.
I earned about 1 million points in just 12 months, back when everything thing is 5x on the Amex Reserve.
But now that is history and we have to resort to paying bills at the grocer!  bangwall.gif

didn't really track how much TP i can earn per year, 3mil maybe?

This is current TP but still far from my flight plan requirement

Luckily I don't always travel on my own, maybe just one year once or twice. Usually travel for business trips, so don't bother much about this. tongue.gif

Well, I can't do this for my company. It is against the compliance. That's one of the bad things working in a MNC. laugh.gif
If I can pay bills on their behalf, that's easily RM 100k I think, I remember my Finance told me about it. laugh.gif

Business trips cannot bring spouse, and can't opt for J/F class biggrin.gif

I only do personal trip for once or twice too, but can fly free around the globe with nice seat, why not.

Strange I just got a call back from CS @ Sam's. Apparently no limit to utility bill payments?  blink.gif
They have actually double checked and verified this info? But i trust you guys more  whistling.gif

Good news? biggrin.gif But provided the information is correct and passed down to the cashier. End of the day it is still the cashier who deny us to pay more than 500

You really split to 80 times? hmm.gif

If I and/or the wife have time, I will. For the time being, 20~30x this month.

The first month we doing that too, will have to think again see whether the time spent worth it or not
