Now I'm really looking forward to the weekend. Was going to book hotels on Agoda, but scratching my head over which card to use. PBB VS is my usual go-to for online bookings, but CB is capped at RM50. With MBB Amex, I'll get the 50 + 5TP smile.gif.

I have exhausted 65% of my CL for BT. Gotta stop and make way for my weekends cash back. biggrin.gif

I'm going to apply for another CL increase when I get my March payslip. Now MBB cards are at the top of my list because of the 0% BT plus the 5% cashback.

Good suggestion. My salary was increased again with effective yesterday. I'm going to collect three payslips and then ask for CL increase. biggrin.gif Unfortunately, my salary increment approval was delayed from our Global and didn't make it to this month's payroll. It's already closed as our salary release is every month's 20th.
I will only get my retro payment and new salary shown in next month's payslip. sad.gif July it seems then.

Congrats and excellent idea.

Mine was increased by 20% on 1 Jan, and got decent bonus in Feb, so I'm hoping that my 3 months payslips will justify a higher CL, even though my last increase request was in Oct / Nov last year. My current CL is used up by BT and I'm planning to cancel my MBB VS before annual fee in May, so I need it!
*
Thanks. Mine also 20% but still ikan bilis compared to you. blush.gif
Next month I will have bonus and my current assignment allowance, I don't think they will just accept one month payslip for me. Not rushing for me but I will definitely ask for it. biggrin.gif

I will also call to enquire the anniversary for my VS.

When I spoke to CS about CL increase, they said they will take average of 3 months payslips, that's why they advised me to submit in March otherwise my old salary (from December) would drag down the average. I asked them also if bonus, claims and allowances are included (because I have substantial allowances and claims) and they said claims normally excluded, but recurring allowances may be included, depending on their CL Department's assessment. They didn't answer my question about bonus though, as I was speaking to general CS and not the CL.
*
Noted. Then, I will just collect latest three months payslip. biggrin.gif

how much CL do you think they will approved based on salary ?
i just got my CL increment request rejected by pbb, which i suspect due to my recent BT with them. possible?
*
I'm not sure, so far I only requested once. They gave me 60% increment as I got RM 5k when I started and they gave me RM 8k after that. Subsequently, my CL was auto increased when I upgraded my cards.

Throw in your rental income if you have. I just scanned the tenancy agreement for them together with my application to upgrade for plat card (also for CL increase) and i got a 300% increase a few days back.

Now I wonder should I move all my BT to the plat and cancel the gold or just leave the BT with my old card.
*
I don't have rental income, maybe lilsunflower has. tongue.gif tongue.gif
Anyway, good to know that rental income is also considered as part of the income.

Hi guys I just saw that the 5% cash back is finally back, however I read the FAQ saying its valid on retail transaction only, does this means online transactions like Agoda doesn't count?
*
Online is part of retail transactions too. smile.gif

I just call cs, and was informed that overseas transactions will incur 2.5% charge for amex.

This means I'll only get 2.5% cb when I use it on weekends. sad.gif
*
Well, AmEx always higher overseas service charge compared to Visa/MasterCard.

Bro, mind to share which investment you put at from MBB BT cash out? Haha..

I'm not bro. sleep.gif
I didn't cash out. Mine is just normal BT to other bank. Instead of paying full at once, I can pay with 12 installments and put in GIA-i only.

Been using various cc for 6 years, never ever let bank charge me single cent of interest.
In the other way, I get few hundred up to 1k of cash rebate from cc each year... tongue.gif

Why not walk in to Card Centre like in Gardens or 1U?
Maybank seldom has booths for application.

That's why I am considering to cancel both of my auto-billing and pay with AMEX card to enjoy 5% CB too! So I guess this is more beneficial than my current auto-billing subscription I suppose?

And anyone who can confirm both bills can be paid via AMEX online? TM & Astro.

Hello all, I just paid my ptptn using AMEX via PTPTN portal. (Saja testing got rebate or not biggrin.gif)
Surprisingly no service charge at all.
My monthly repayment is RM 180, but somehow I can't pay more eg. RM200, otherwise the web will show error and not proceed.
Only if I click RM180 by default only can proceed to payment page.

Guys, anyone facing this issue also??
*
Nope. Can pay more. Usually during weekend, their page is not stable.

KLCC no more if I'm not mistaken.
Gardens only allows collection on working days.
