Want to ask if I use Amex to pay income tax with 0.8% surcharge. Do I qualify for 5x TP? or does it count as Government bodies with no TP?

Is it worth it? Say you have RM10k of tax to pay.
0.8% surcharge = RM80
Using MBB Amex KF to pay, you get 5000 Miles
If 1 Mile = RM0.04, that's worth RM200

Okay I guess there's RM120 'earnings'. Something's better than nothing, but not worth the hassle unless one already has the card, or unless you have a huge amount of tax to pay.

If you have enough tax to pay, ie over 60k, you will get double miles....

The mile nominal value is actually 2.5sen, not 4sen....

The match vs Everton can watch till the end before swipe. But in case they lose, probably will swipe some vs Wolves/West Ham

Sorry what I meant was that I wouldn't go all in for Wolves/West Ham. Everton can watch till the result finish. But if Everton lose can only sailang vs Man City or Chelsea. Both difficult opponents

I was just over the phone with MBB CS. Wanted to redeem TP to KF. Why the redemption is 4500 TP = 1000 KF?

Not 4770 TP = 1000 KF as per website?

That was the GST era rate. It is reduced back to 4500TP with the scrapping of GST smile.gif

Should just update the website accordingly

They have many to do list - the eatery places with discount is outdated also

What do you mean by double miles for over RM60k? For 60k spend, wouldn't you get 30k KF Miles?

I thought the generally accepted value of 1 Mile is RM0.04-0.05. My own calculations for my redemptions also gets at least RM0.04/mile.

If annual spending above 60k, you get the double miles.
