hello all,

For Maybank Islamic PETRONAS Ikhwan Visa Gold Card-i, is below still valid?
"8% Cash Back
Enjoy 8% Cash Back on weekends (Saturday and Sunday) and 1% Cash Back on weekdays (Monday to Friday) for every PETRONAS spend. (capped at RM 50 per month)"
http://www.maybank2u.com.my/mbb_info/m2u/p...sonal/CRD-Cards

The reason for asking is because when i received the new card, 8% cash rebate is not mentioned at all.

If it's not, you'll receive a supplementary note together with the same indicating revision of benefits etc.

those notes could be old batch and they still keep in circulation.  bangwall.gif

the revision to 8% was effective in Nov 2016. announcement in Oct 2016 >> read here

latest PDS on 1 March 2017 also stated 8% cashback.

i still getting 40+ cashback on 1 March 2017.  :thumbsup:
unlikely maybank to u-turn their decision this soon considering they went to media to shout the benefits and collabroation with Petronas Dagangan  laugh.gif

Maybank Islamic Bhd eyes a 27% increase in its Maybank Islamic Petronas Ikhwan Visa Card-i membership to 73,000 in the next 12 months following the card’s newly-enhanced features.  sweat.gif

furthermore, maybank must announce the revision at least 21 days before effective date.

Tks for your info and effort to dig out the relevant information!
I feel relief now coz 8% cash rebate is my only reason to apply for this card.

I also would like to thanks @fruitie for her sharing of first method (refer page1). Her method is working!

My card application got rejected 2 times and no reason was given. Then i tried to split the credit limit and it worked!

thumbsup.gif I think this is the best CB card out there at the moment if you only pump Petronas

i apply this card just for pumping petrol at petronas. Any CC giving higher cash rebate than this card?

even MBB2 Amex (weekend) 5% cash rebate+5X treat point can't bet this card.
the 5X treat point is equivalent to ~1.25%

If you are a Petronas user, yes it is a must card to have. I asked my sister to apply for this card since she uses exclusively Petronas and Caltex. thumbup.gif

i've no loyalty to Petrol company, i have loyalty to CC which gives highest cash rebate.

It's actually you take CL from your conventional to Islamic. In another word, they don't grant any CL for your Islamic cards. smile.gif
For e.g., your conventional is RM 10k and you ask for RM 3k for Islamic, so your conventional is reduced to RM 7k and transfer the RM 3k to Islamic.

yes. proven. i just had it done about 2 months ago. it works exactly the way fruitie described.
