Then you cannot request to add FCB VS with your existing credit limit.
You need to apply for FCB VS with your latest income documents, if approved then FCB VS and your M2 Gold will share a revised credit limit by Maybank (Conventional).

Maybank Islamic Berhad will reject your application for Ikhwan cards. You need to apply for a new credit limit from Maybank Islamic (ie cannot share with Maybank conventional). You may discuss with Maybank card centre, reduce your existing CL with Maybank by RM2000 and reassign it to Maybank Islamic to get Ikhwan CCs, but not always approved by Maybank Islamic.

So the payment with the visa should be posted together within the Amex account?

no.

visa transaction in visa account.
amex transaction in amex account.

your visa transaction probably not yet posted (settlement not done by merchant/seller).

I see. Thanks very much for the replies Clarence. Appreciate it. Guess I will have to give up on the Ikhwan card and try my luck on the FCB card.

Would it help if I request for my Maybank2 Card CC limit to be increased (of course once I have reduced my CIMB limit) instead? Or does it have to be Maybank2 Platinum and CC limit >8k?

Also, my income now (this year) would actually meet the Maybank2 Platinum annual income requirement of 60k, though it's not technically 1 year yet. So should I request for my Maybank2 card to be changed to platinum instead (as this would indirectly also increase the CC limit? just a guess) and not request for a CC limit increase instead?

Apply M2 Platinum and FCB VS at the same time. From my experience, your CL will be automatically revised by Maybank.

Once approved, cancel the M2 Gold.

P/S: SST should be implemented from 1/9/18, so if the new CCs are issued after 1/9, you may have to pay SST.

Ok thanks, shall wait for it then

for amex 5% cb weekend,
i pay bills , lazada/shopee entitle for cashback?

Thanks ClarenceT for correction. You will get the Cashback if the website/merchant support AMEX. Since Lazada and Shopee do not support AMEX, so you cannot use AMEX for payment and cashback
Btw, TNB, TM can use AMEX.

No for Lazada and Shopee.

it does not matter what/where you pay.

more relevant question is: does these sites/portals accept amex?

oh sad... no amex.
reload boost also no amex.

its okay bro..now more merchants can use amex online. at least most travel sites accepts amex

i thought this time BNM will send order to charge customers. lol.

SST from RMCD, but because banks need to impose it, they need to get approval regardless. really

Ok. Got it. Thanks so much for the assistance.

Thanks for the helpful tips regarding emailing to mbb card services after getting a rejection from m2u online, requested to assign 1k CL to my Ikhwan Petronas, it has been approved finally! At the same time just got approved for my Affin BHPetrol 10% for new cardholders 😂
