QUOTE(yoong81 @ Apr 26 2017, 05:06 PM) hmm, actually how does pledge FD works? furthermore, the FD interest we get, is it lower than normal rate? You park your FD in the bank for the card. It will be on board rate but sometimes if your banker is nice, you can get promotional rates for it. It's tied to the cc until you cancelled the cc. Money would be refunded 90 days after that.

Just curious with the RHB merger talks, will Ambank's CC get affected with the merger?
Later I take the time and effort to apply, they say privileges would be revised.

Gonna take the effort to put a 30k for this ambank card. Let's see how fast they will attend to me  Basically it's for lounge usage only.

Just to recap, only Visa Infinite/WMC got unlimited entries right for the lounge?
Wondering if I can get both via one application or not..

QUOTE(sms2u @ Jun 14 2017, 04:00 PM) off topic, u put RM30K FD to apply the cc? why no just apply AEON CC which can give u access to PPL Aeon? I tried applying till today no answer. So if they willing to give me this WMC / Infinite for 30k FD in return, okay la. I usually buy things in USD / Pounds also. So cheaper exchange rates is okay for me.

QUOTE(minthiam @ Jun 14 2017, 04:56 PM) Did you purchase online or over the counter? Just a reminder that you will only earn 1x AmBonus point if you do online purchase with VI/WMC...this is the part i hated most about Ambank. Having said that, their forex is really unbeatable! Over the counter when I'm travelling. If online I use M2P Amex whenever possible. But I want to BT sometimes so ambank to MBB during promotion would be good instead of me always maxing out my MBB cards

QUOTE(Tsting @ Jun 15 2017, 01:15 PM) This is actually the main reason why I applied for this card. 1% Mc charge. 0.5-0.8% exchange rate spread. So about RM 0.018 per mile. Limit of 100,000 miles per month. Pretty good deal if got a lot of overseas spending. Question is: Is there a list somewhere of what ambank considers online spending (since not included). Uber/Grab? Grab credits? Airbnb? Airline ( direct Mas or Sq)? Basically, you need to be overseas to get the 5X points. Whatever you spend locally won't be eligible. The only drawback I see from this card.

QUOTE(Tsting @ Jun 15 2017, 03:20 PM) Actually this is a plus point for me. As pointed out earlier, overseas online transactions don't count. So wondering what is defined as being online transactions. Eg. Booking SQ from Singapore to London? Booking Mas from Singapore to London? Airbnb bookings? Grab and Uber when using overseas? If you are using the card locally, it's not eligible for 5X lor. You must use the card physically overseas to get 5X Online all don't count to 5X unless you are not in Malaysia.
