under the new tnc, do you think all transactions except the rule for petrol, will entitle 5x points too ?
*
Well unless mention ... it is as with the last revision... only certain transactions are entitled 5x... gov. related payments: 1x

if they rely/hoping/praying for lower finance charge, then they should not be holding credit card at the first place

Well with 7 CCs.... I'm almost covered with almost 100% of my spending getting some form of CB... may apply one or 2 more to hit greater efficiency in CB... Wise enough...

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

With 1.25% in points.... so slightly more than 3.75%...

is Amex card good card to swipe in oversea???

QUOTE(fruitie @ Mar 23 2017, 04:12 PM)
Higher exchange rate and higher service charge.

but all in all, you would still get around 4% cash back during the weekends... loosing around 2 to 2.5%

Assuming the retailer don't add extra % for using Amex..
