Can anyone confirm that M2P Visa by default is MU VS now? And not required to pay 2X RM800 annual fee nor separate 2X RM80k minimum spending for AF waiver?
*
I remember someone mentioning it to be MU VS now.

But my friend got his with the old VI instead. Let me walk to card centre outside Gardens to check later.

Thanks a lot!

Confirm you can choose which VI you want ( normal or MU )

And you need to spend a CUMULATIVE of MYR 80,000 for the waiver irrrgardless of whether it’s VI classic or MU.

Oh wow. I don’t see any reason for anyone to choose the standard VI then. They might as well give the same benefits of the MU VI to the standard VI.

and AF also only at RM800 only for both the Amex and MU VI together right?
*
Yeap for the AF.

Maybe they’ll revise the standard VI after this.

Thanks for the info. M2P looks a lot more attractive now with the MU VI inclusion perks.
*
It’s only bundled into the M2P recently laugh.gif

But for existing users, have to cancel and request new.

Waste of time betol. So I guess I won’t be getting this MUVI unless they arranged it for me.

Out of curiosity, since you seldom use the card...does it mean that you are paying the annual year?
*
Seldom use maybe means once they hit the threshold, terus stop using d.

Like my friend, he usually whacks his huge payment of things early of the year for this card. Once hit the waiver threshold, he will use another card coz Amex is kinda hard for him to use for his daily expenses.

But then again, I have a friend who's paying the AF for Platinum Amex Charge Card so I don't think he mind the AF laugh.gif

Are the dining discounts in Shangri La still available? because i saw tnc until Dec17 only

Should be still available.

I think the M2U site has already updated it to Dec 18?

if add RM800 annual fee,how to calculate the mile /RM ?
*
Honestly, if you don’t spend 80k PA, this card not worth it.

Unless you’re a hardcore dinner in SPG outlet, this card might be slightly worth it due to the discount for such places.

Can’t recommend people to sign for this card if they don’t seems to be able to hit the 80k spending.

Unless you’re willing to foot the 800 laugh.gif

how's the outcome?

Some in the group say that amex reserve is platinum equivalent but I think it should be more than platinum because the maybank 2 platinum provides amex platinum, so amex reserve should be a level higher than amex platinum? Plus the card is in black, shouldn't it be considered as one of the centurion level card?
*
Not even close to Centurion level, honestly.

It’s below or same level as Amex Platinum Charge Card, at most.

Centurion level can enter Centurion lounge, this card I think still quite far from that level lol

If one doesn't meet 80k spending per annum, any chance to seek MBB to waive the AF?
*
Don’t bother to ask unless you are a regular spender and just miss the 80k by a small margin.

I have the form, if you want I can sent to you.

I cancel my application last minute after the person in charge told me must pay for the annual fees even for the first year.

RM3250 for the benefit, for me definitely a no go.

Do you have an invitation for the Centurion? laugh.gif

That’s the only card I’m interested to get my hands on hahahahaha.

PITA watching amex plat earn rate for membership rewards, not to say the AF.

Diamanté, local 5x meant a lot to me~

I have a friend, his father in law spent 1mil on VI every month  whistling.gif
*
And I know a guy who whacks close to 1m on his Centurion a month laugh.gif

If you are a rich spender / roller, the Plat Amex would be better as they have better rewards and perks in some way.

The Diamante is better for us local peeps who used it for mostly everything and want to accrue points in all possible manner.

Anyone using Maybank AMEX 2 cards Premier to pay LHDN?

Question:-
1. For govt related transactions eligible to earn Treat Points right?
2. Using credit card the website charges 0.8%. Is it still worth it to use AMEX 2 cards Premier?
3. Using AMEX 2 cards Premier there is no limit to Treat Points earned right?

Thanks in advance

Ps....oh, saw the no treat Points for govt bodies

Why don’t you use M2C and pay on weekend for 5% cb?

Unless your tax payable is more than 1k laugh.gif

Hi Herc, I can't seem to get much info from the internet on the Diamante card. Do you have the link?
Is it true 5x TP for all local spending? I suppose the exceptions for utilities, insurance, education still apply.

Basically you need to be a private banking member and invited for one.

Heard that even if you qualify as one, they might not invite you.

Hope it helps smile.gif

Thanks for the link Chiahau but not much info on the card benefit? The rest of the things mentioned are just glitter, nothing else. I happen to be a private wealth client for a number of years but maybe because my aum doesn't reach USD1Mio magic number they left me out. I try and cucuk my RM and see if she can pull some strings. If its true 5x on all local spend it is worth the effort. Don't u just hate it when you purchase a big ticket item and they say sorry we dont accept amex?!  bangwall.gif
*
I think it's like Amex Centurion, the perks and benefits are not known to public for exclusivity.

You should ring up your RM and ask him/her to help you get this card.

After all, if you already qualify for PW, you ain't too far behind to hit 1M tongue.gif

And yes, hate it when they say no amex. So i shop overseas instead laugh.gif

I know, that’s why I found it hard to believe since unlimited access + 1-2 guests to Amex lounge is reserved to Amex Centurian cards level.

Centurion level has Centurion Lounge.

Amex Lounge is not a Centurion Lounge.

Won’t be too surprised if they let Amex Reserve enter since the Platinum Card can enter as well if I am not mistaken.
