I am not sure about you but Maybank VS customer support is quite good and fast.
Also comparing it to other credit cards, the number of entries you need to press before able to speak to a CS is actually quite little.
If your applied for the card after may 2016 then probably your renewal date is only starting from May 2018.
However there might be a bad news if you card is approved before Dec 2016 then you need to spend 50k annual to be able to request for a free AF waiver.
Only card approved after Dec 2016 will get reduced AF waiver by spending only 30k.

this card was given to me on oct14, so i was entitled to get first year waive on oct15, by right they will charge me on oct16 for the second year annual fee. i think my annual spending last year reaches 50k, but no black n white on the statement, but another 50k this year seem to me abit hard. shakehead.gif

RM250 is decent. In Singapore is only S$100 for Paywave.

Yes, decent for the convenience. Just tap and I'm done.

Yes u will, as long at the payment portal is overseas. I find this as a plus point compared to Ambank's WMC/VI which requires the card to be swiped overseas physically, online transaction is not valid.

Yeh - When I've exhausted my quota for online credit cards (such as CIMB CR and PBB VS), I will use my MBB VS on payment gateways like Paypal. For example, Lazada has a Paypal option (which is counted as foreign gateway), so you will get your 5x TPs even though your transaction is in RM.

Damn I didnt know this regarding the paypal portal. Thanks for the tips, made a few big purchases from Lazada and they don't accept Amex.

Guys, I read first page and just noticed that groceries cash back only applicable for domestic. doh.gif Looks like I brought a wrong card here. I'm in India now and I would like to buy some groceries.

Any chance that I will get cash back? Just like M2Cards' dining cash back is supposedly for local transactions but people still got for overseas dining.

Wasn't sure about the answer to your question but did some thinking. For VS, they will probably record it as overseas transaction which is eligible for 5x TP and won't give the cashback as well. In contrast, PBB VS allows 6% cashback for overseas groceries, but no VIP points (which are quite worthless anyway).

30k only for those who received the card after revised, all previous owners are stucked to 50k requirement. the info got it from the helpline, but the support told me u can ask for waiver, go by case to case.

Most likely before the anniversary, I'll cancel this card...So sad since it's a pretty good card to use even during the weekdays

Any T&C to show it's only for those received after revision? I haven't read the T&C yet.
Oh well, not like I will achieve 30K. laugh.gif
