Ambank calling it SST Waiver

just noticed that no more access to penang lounge.... luckily i still got citibank premiermiles...

Penang users now got their benefits again. Kinda.

Received below sms:
RM0.00 :AmSPB World Mastercard/-i Visa Infinite/-i cardholders can access Plaza Premium Lounge@Penang International Airport wef 11/2/19. Visit ambank.com.my/PPL

Thanks for ur explanation.
Actually i intended to get access premium lounge worldwide. haha
Unfortunately, my income less than RM80,000 p.a. ;-P
I hv CIMB preferred card but premium lounge limit to 5 countries. :-(

doesn't look close... RHB WMC limited to malaysia only, and 5 times only... AmB WMC internationally.... 

OOT: but would like to know is the "swipe for friend" is available to any other credit cards? (subject to that card is available to enter that lounge)

It is up to the lounge to give access right? not the card issuer right?     

that day my friend asked me about this, and I asked him to give a try with this am wmc... as I have yet to try it that way.... hahaha....

I have a trip to Korea on the coming June and I'm going to flight from Penang > HK > Korea. Currently i have both AMbank Visa signature/Islamic credit card which is entitle to access 5x PPL in airport for each card and I just want to seek for advice can i proceed the way below?

AMbank Visa signature > access the PPL in Penang airport.

Ambank islamic Visa signature > access PPL in HK airport.   

P/S: Based on the T&C from the bank only can access the PPL once per day. I feel very puzzle on this term.

Overseas Transaction Conversion Fee

For all AmBank Credit Cards (except TRUE by AmBank Visa Card, AmBank BonusLink Visa Card and AmBank M-Card):
Transactions outside Malaysia will be converted to Ringgit Malaysia on
the  date  the  item  is  received  and/or  processed.  The  exchange  rate  may  differ  from  the  published  daily 
rate  due  to  market  fluctuation.  The  conversion  rate  is  as  determined  by  Mastercard  International  or  Visa 
International plus a 1% foreign exchange conversion markup (previously known as administration cost) by
AmBank on the converted Ringgit Malaysia amount.

For  TRUE  by  AmBank  Visa  Card,  AmBank  BonusLink  Visa  Card  and  AmBank  M-Card: 
Transactions  outside  Malaysia  will  be  converted  to  Ringgit  Malaysia  on  the  date  the  item  is  received 
and/or processed. The exchange rate may differ from the published daily rate due to market fluctuation.
The conversion rate is as determined by Mastercard International or Visa International.

Accessing two on same day will result in charges for one of them.

My colleague already being charged. It comes two months later.

Best to use different cards if you have to avoid after travel hassles.

Anyone able to detect what is the difference in terms of benefits between:

- AmBank Signature Priority Banking World MasterCard
- AmBank Signature Priority Banking Visa Infinite Card

Are you able to get the bank to 'offset' the SST?

referring to your multiple cards enter lounge... do you mean the one someone asked recently about  can use different cards to enter different lounge within same day.. (KLIA & HKIA)?

or, we enter with 1 of the card, and another 1 enter for our companion, into the same lounge at same time?

I reckon this is for the normal WMC/VI since Signature WMC/VI comes with unlimited.

Do share your findings about the forex spending.

I cancelled my WMC when SST was introduced last year. Hand itchy to get the VI so that I have both designs 

I have a quick question. I have applied for Ambank TRUE Visa through a roadshow agent, and received the card last week. Yesterday, I received another Ambank Bonuslink card which I did not apply for. When I called the agent, he said usually Ambank will approve 2 cards to those who qualify.

So in this case, if I only choose to activate the TRUE Visa but chuck the Ambank Bonuslink card aside (not activated), would I still be charged SST on both cards or only the activated card? Do I need to call them to inform them that I am not going to use the Bonuslink card? The reason I asked this question is because previously I kena before with M2C (whereby I only activated the Visa but not the Amex, but the service charge was charged to my Amex and accumulated up to a point that my name was blacklisted by Maybank as I refused to pay the service charge on my Amex).

that's a good card.. thanks!

7000 to 12500 is a huge jump!
80% increase!!!
Last round 5000 to 7000 (40%) already lost many customers.
Now I really don't know how to spend rm500 for lounge access in the future...

Yes, it is a very stupid directive.

The economy is going downhill ever since those
new kids on the block took over the country last year.

It seems lots of jobless these days.

Just look at the US dollar exchange rate. Our currency
plunged down the moment those guys won.
Have you noted your interest charges on your statements ?

If you look carefully, and compare with the opening balance
of your account before and after November, your interest will
surely have gone up.
It seems they are going back to the days when the
minimum payment was 15 percent.
