House mortgage? car loan?
is this your first credit card application?
For me this is my 2nd card perhaps bank need to see some kind of credit activity...i only apply for gold card because i only want the amex card

.
My card arrived yesterday but too bad im not at home to open it

need to wait for 2 more weeks before i come back. M2U so easy can straight away change pin no & activate card. Since I applied for the card i always peeped out on any shop if they can accept amex. Not much over here in sarawak though

candidly asked if i pay dinner at a hotel using amex they said it will include extra 4%...is tat true?
Tell them you work for BNM

See if they still insist to charge you 4% or not.
I am sure you can dispute the 4% and get a refund from the bank, just the hassle.
All this surcharges are bullshit and I've documented my journey so far on getting back the money from the banks somewhere in this subforum.
Please report them to relevant authorities to ensure they get fined or actions to be taken by financial institutions.
