if using FD, is there a minimum spend requirement for waiver ? Or will Maybank allow you to keep the card for free as long as you keep the FD ?

Even though MBB gave me the 2Kard Premier cards, I still end up using the AMEX 2Kard Platinum card due to extra 5% cashback on weekends. Really puzzling why the Platinum card benefit is better than the Premier card.
*
Also looking into getting the cash back cards since M2P limits 5xTP to RM500 for Petrol ... so may as well pump with Amex Gold/Platinum.

Will the TreatPoints be combined for these 2 cards ? Or will I only be able to redeem separately ?

Just wanna check again, the VISA card gets 5x points for overseas spent still right?
*
so when overseas is it better to use AMEX or VISA ? both will have 5x yes ? And how does one check the conversion rate beforehand ?

specifically for Aerotel at KLIA2, does it accept Supplementary for Visa Infinite ?

MBB website still states T&C from 2018 so unsure if anything has changed.

MBB VI / MUVI supplementary card cannot enter lounge.

partner accidentally used the MBB VI (supp) to enter, and just had to sign the standard entry receipt with no price indicated. Lucky or will there be a charge later on ?

QUOTE(charlesj @ Mar 6 2019, 03:49 PM)
For overseas hotel, as what you mentioned above.
*
To summarize, overseas hotel better to use VI instead of AMEX due to exchange rate ?

This card is an airlines miles play....not worth redeeming into cash vouchers....

The % cash return used to be quite good in the past (something like 2% unlimited since redeeming vouchers got no limit) but this has came down a lot after a few rounds of devaluation

QUOTE(charlesj @ Feb 24 2020, 06:33 PM)
I would not hesitate to swipe with my Amex and redeem air miles

thanks, but with COVID-19 trying to keep traveling to a minimum. What's the 2nd best place to redeem Treat points then ? smile.gif

Also I've tonnes of Enrich Miles which I just convert to RM50 vouchers because most of my traveling is done for work ie: last minute and reimbursable.

How many enrich miles to exchange RM 50 voucher?What voucher ?
I normally would exchange enrich for hotel stay which will get around 3% return

CS told me max is for a 1 week only, can't permanently on.

Did you request for a specific website ? In my experience, for a particular site it can be permanently "unblocked" until the card expiry date.

its a status symbol,those who travel and are earning that amount would be flying business,to which they have lounge access already

doesnt make sense for RM3250

QUOTE(Tigerr @ Jun 5 2020, 12:32 PM)
The rich dont think alike us. 3250? Not even can cover 50% of their one night out drinking. As for VI n premiere2 already many Ali Muthu Ah kow can get already n PPL already pack (not mco period).

QUOTE(Lego Warfare @ Jun 5 2020, 04:16 PM)
Yes no significant advantage besides the lounges. Status wise will be higher than M2P for showing off, but still nothing exclusive about it since anyone can also apply for the card as long as their income meets the requirement.
Not like Black cards that are only available if offered/invited to those super atas elite ppl lol.
*
how does one show off their credit card ? so far I think only the cashier/waiter/receptionist has seen mine ... and on certain days I'll use my M2Gold or other cashback cards tongue.gif
