Your fraud liability is capped to 250 ringgit (or something like that) no matter your credit limit. Of course you have to immediately report etc.

Higher credit limit good for big purchase or emergency medical bill (for example). Also whenever got 0% BT promotion high credit limit is very useful.

Disclaimer - Your liability is only capped IF AND ONLY IF it’s proven that the fraud happen without your knowledge and you did whatever in your capacity to prevent the fraud to happen.

Later some ppl think can easily get protected because they lose card and don’t care to report because nobody knows their PIN number or something tongue.gif

For me it is due to BT and I have used up a lot of my CL during BT campaign which just ended.
Also, MBB cards are my most frequent used cards, so there is no issue for higher CL. smile.gif

My Maybank CC negative balance now laugh.gif

Prolly due to overpayment last time when I cash out + some spending afterwards.

On a side note, HLB's recent revision to my CL makes it becomes the second highest, surpassing MBB's.

Quite surprising, seeing how cheap HLB were with my previous limit.

Just received maybank 2cards..do i need to activate both or can activate amex only?
*
Activate both, keep the another card safely away in a locked drawer.

Can i get some opinion on MBB CC regulation here

is it just me or they are way more stricter than other banks regarding CC.

Usually they are rather strict. But so far so good for my cases.

sorry for not making it clear my bad, what i mean is ---> is MBB very strict on free upgrade to next level CC when you don't fulfill the condition ?

i already have the MBB 2 card plat for some time and was thinking/wondering why they have not offer next tier card seeing as i have good relation with them (or rather their products) and mostly use their CC when shopping,
yet Ambank and HSBC which i have no relationship at all besides CC (rarely used) offered higher tier cards where i do not fulfill the conditions no questions asked.

seems like they take you for granted once you got warmed and cosy with them.

There is no next level tier.

Well, unless you want to incur AF.

Maybank not desperate for sales unlike Ambank and HSBC. They got a steady user base and they won't bother to offer you anything new unless you are really a hardcore spender.

My CL on my MBB Amex Gold is more than 50 but Maybank never bother to send me a complimentary upgrade for their cards.

On the other hand, HLB sent me a Visa Infinite when I asked for a limit increase for their BT promo.

So if you want, just ask from MBB. They are like that one.

Guys, i have some queries regarding Agoda hotel booking offers while using Maybank Amex. The discount is immediate calculcated or only shown in statement later? If the hotel i booked i under discounts already, will i be entitled additional discounts for using Amex to book? Thanks.

You need to use the specific site.

Search - Agoda Maybank

Annual fee can't be waived? shocking.gif
If like that, better before annual fee kena charge.. Request to terminate..

I guess too many people use MBB CC already, so won't scare you lari.. whistling.gif

Can waive with minimum spending lah.

Eg -

MBB VS - 30k

MBB 2 Premier - 80k

MBB WMC - 100k

Dumb question.

My limit is currently close to being maxed out due to BTs.

I was thinking to make a purchase of 10k of so via Merchant EPP.

So If i were to bank the cash to an M2C Gold card which is currently 0 in statement balance, swipe the card for the item and then ask the bank to refund the credit balance in the card, does that work?

Reasoning being, I rather have the loose 10k in my pocket for the time being instead of using it to offset the balance.

I'm glad that despite the fact that M2C's rates got revised, the airmiles rate for M2P remains? laugh.gif

Or have I spoken too early?

Many of us have more than yours. I have more than 20 cards with no late payment and applies to most of the users here.
Well, of course this affects us, who doesn't? But banks will compensate users with other ways, just like previously. Probably it's a good time for me to cancel my inactive and less used cards.

I have 20+ card not including supplementary sad.gif

Will prolly lose a few dinner at Shang just to pay for SST if it's at MYR 25 per card....
