I didn't get anything for 8x tmonline. Hope it will come next month, I might call cs after I'm done with my vacation.

Edit: just checked my unbilled transactions, the 8x swipe promo cb is in.

My aeon big 8 x rm50 gift cards did not get swipe promo cb. Called cs, cs said it's split transactions, not qualified.

The gift cards were paid at mid valley alcohol counter.

Is there anything else I could do to get back cb for these transactions?

I have 8 receipts like this with diff invoice number, approval code, date/time. The only giveaway would be the date/time too close to each other, within a minute.

I got 8 gift cards of rm50. I hope this clarifies.

If this is not the way to buy gift cards to get promo cb, hope someone would share.

Edit: I have 8 credit card receipts as well. There are 8 transactions in my pbb statement.

Thanks.

Thanks for all the feedback. I certainly hope cs didn't know what she was talking about when she said my transactions were split. I even prepared a draft email to be copied to bnm telilink.

Today I'm on leave hoping to do another 8xrm50 gift cards, but on second thought, I'll hold it first.

Hi guys, I just want to update that I used my card in Aussie on 26 March, and it is reflected in my unbilled transactions at the rate of 3.434199. The merchant charged 1.3% credit card fees, which is included in the total charged to my card.

KL money changer sell rate on 25th was 3.42. 27th was 3.41. I have no data for 26th tho.

I guess for overseas transactions where merchants do not charge credit card fees, it would be a good rate. For example dining in restaurants, i lost my aussie receipt but i know they did not charge credit card fees.

Edit: sorry my mistake, card fees included in transaction, so actual forex is 3.434199myr to aud.

Of course banks charge higher. We don't always get to use cash overseas.

The message is to share how much diff is forex to expect when using pb vs. To me, it's not exorbitant high.

I wish I knew the rates for other bank cards vs pbvs. I could be using them instead.

Hi, I believe that's due to buy-sell spread, as in your case 7Feb you buy aud, 9Feb you sell aud. Banks spread is much larger than money changer.

On another note, I believe car rental companies do not accept cash. So no choice, hv to use credit card. However usually we don't cancel, so no refunds. Just trying to use the best card for forex.
