QUOTE(BRY7 @ Jan 2 2017, 09:59 PM) Well I must be lucky then because I only had 1 weekend dining transaction and it was overseas. The rebate I received is exactly 5% of the amount transacted. I didn't get when I swiped for Starbucks in Taiwan. But I suspect it was due to MCC issue rather than overseas transaction.Still waiting to see if I'll be getting the cash back for the promo, thanks for the info  |

About time to charge some of my expenses back to Amex! Past few months been stressful, maxing out my Mach, SC Gold and CIMB CR rebates. Even got Younique to sustain some of the purchases.

I think MBB did the cashback campaign to gauge the amount of people utlizing the card on weekends and cashback they potentially have to award before they officially announce the card feature.

QUOTE(janson_kaniaz @ Mar 4 2017, 08:08 PM) sorry but i disagree They are out there to gauge and survey what are the spending patterns on weekend on Amex with the promo 5% before making it a product feature. Obviously it won't be a 100% accurate statistic but good enough roughly to know how much they might be needing to payout once the feature kicks in.one is promo and the other is fixed feature. and the promo was not so interesting either. minimum spending rm500 and cash back some 3 months after end of promo. |

QUOTE(iamshf @ Mar 4 2017, 11:18 PM) Apply m2c when my salary 5k+ CL 15k Now 9k+ CL increase request, approved and adjusted to 20k only. QUOTE(Lego Warfare @ Mar 5 2017, 01:31 AM) Weird how they calculated the limit. When I applied with 5k they gave me 33k CL... QUOTE(celaw @ Mar 5 2017, 01:42 AM) Time had changed. Maybe now is more strict. When I just fresh grad from uni apply for SCB CC, they give me 19k credit limit. I had cancelled the CC years ago and now reapply. Now my salary 3x of that time, they give me 5k credit limit. It's not only your salary they consider. They take into consider if you have other loans also. |

QUOTE(lilsunflower @ Mar 16 2017, 01:02 PM) 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! QUOTE(fruitie @ Mar 16 2017, 01:05 PM) Thanks. Mine also 20% but still ikan bilis compared to you. 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. 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. I will also call to enquire the anniversary for my VS. 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. |

QUOTE(Bliz @ Mar 24 2017, 11:04 AM) Anyone used amex to pay for airbnb before? As i know airbnb is charging in EURO, so the rate will definitely be higher for amex compared to visa, am i right about this? AirBnB no longer charges in foreign currency. They are doing conversion with a very premium (3% i think) exchange rate to your card currency. So far there's no loophole to escape this last I checked. |
