I know it allows accumulated spendings....the problem is the 30 days before and after part....if you trickle spend spread over many days, and at the same time, make many entries, how to you calculate which spending is used to cover which entry?....
*
if you really want to enter, you will sure do the calculation manually
if got issue they charge you, just complaint with them
there is no point keep asking this type of question here

With the introduction of Bigpay, we can enter the PPL around the world with just RM6 per person with WMC/VI~

Care to elaborate in detail how did the RM6.00 per entry come about.

reload Bigpay with Ambank WMC/VI with RM500 30 days before/after you enter the PPL (https://www.ambank.com.my/ambank/Documents/PlazaPremiumLoungeListofAirport.pdf) and withdraw the RM500 out with a charges of RM6 by Bigpay and pay back to Ambank~

there isn't any official notice from BigPay regarding the suspension of the prepaid card yet but if you follow the BigPay thread closely (https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/589707), there are already a few cases among our members. do check it out on the 1st page. anyhow, sign0006.gif. i shall leave it here.

that's frequent reload and withdraw, this is just one reload and withdraw within 30 days from the day you enter a qualified PPL around the world.
I think most people already fed up with the RM500 stuff on WMC/VI but now with the help of Bigpay, this can become heaven again~

Hi guys , I just want to double confirm one thing , there's should be few scenarios here

1) aldy exceeded the 5 times limit before 1st Aug, as long as no usage after 1st Aug, should be fine. Can keep the card for next yr as it is free for lifetime

2) have not exceeded the 5x limit, example, u used 4 times before 1st Aug, so u can only use one more time after 1st Aug with spending of rm500 , after that any usage will be chargeable, or discount maybe , but not sure how much , anyone can advise ?

So we still got until end of July to use as much we can , as long as rm500 spending per entry are fulfill.

I think the counter start counting on 1 Aug 2018

after searching the answer on the CB calculation for True Visa, there is still no exactly answer whether it is calculate by statement date or calendar cycle right?
i just got my True Visa and my previous VI statement date is 28 of each month, so basically i will get CB every month if i just top up BP on 1st week of each month right? or the statement for VI and True will be different? Anyone can advise?

They confirmed to me it is calculated based on calendar date (1st day until last day of the month, regardless of ur statement cycle). and based on TRANSACTION DATE, not posting date.
*
Anyway I have miss calculate the True Visa arrived too early, cos earlier of the month already top up with HLB Fortune too much, I will wait 27/8 top up PBB then only top up Ambank True Visa on 28/8, hopefully next month can get CB before statement come out on 28/9

Please do me and everyone else here a favour, if lets say your next month cash rebate is not the same as what i confirmed to you earlier (transactions date & 1st to end of month), please let us know and do COMPLAIN to them  mad.gif

p/s im tired of playing such complain game with their customer service  sad.gif

erm... normally the cash back should be based on posting date because if you make transaction during or just before statement out, it will based on the posting date that fall into the date that qualify for CB just like every other bank did.
but anyway it doesn't matter for me as my statement date is on 28 and someone said they cut off on 21, means what ever i spend after 21 will be CB on next month statement anyway.

I am confirmed many times by their "higher" management that it is indeed based on transaction date and not posting date. I know other banks are all based on posting date but apparently it is not the case for Ambank True Visa.

My statement date is 22nd of the month. i am firmed on saying that because of two reasons:

1) I got confirmation from higher management of Ambank Sales team regarding this true visa card
2) I do all the calculations of my cash rebate from the day i got my card in April 2018. All of the previous month followed transaction instead of posting date. If rebate for April, and May follows transaction date, it is hard for me to accept they can change it to posting date on June ?! bangwall.gif

I am furious as i have been given different answers again and again  bangwall.gif

You need to know all bank use posting date rather than transaction date is because when your statement date is near and unable to post and calculate in your statement, therefore your cash back will be calculate on next month which posted after your statement date

Yes correct. I am fully aware of this and thats why i question Ambank Customer service again and again.

It happens everywhere…
Most of the CS are fresh and some didn't train properly and they are not competent enough to provide the answer to customer…
For me I always rely on TnC as this is the black and white from the company and they can't deny if any wrong doing

So based on above, it is calculated by posted date with calendar month and credit in the following month, not together with your monthly statement

For those who have doubt on Ambank True Visa CB calculation, some claimed that the CS said CB will only calculate on and before 20th of each month is wrong as it appear that they calculate based on last month transaction and credit in before 20th of each month, which my case is on 17th Oct 2018. my statement date is on 28th of each month btw.

To clear up some of you who got doubt on how the True Visa credit the CB, they calculate the transaction date of previous month and credit on next month, not 30 days or 60 days.

I still have not receive Cashback for bigpay transaction performed end of July today.  I called customer service and the guy says bigpay is not eligible for Cashback. And that it’s clearly stated that all quasi transaction (means top up transactions) is not eligible for Cashback.

I checked again terms and conditions for true visa- no such thing mentioned.
I also receive rebate for bigpay transactions performed in August.

Anyone has such experience where they get partial rebates for bigpay Transactions through true Visa card?

u got receive from Aug transaction?
if got use your aug transaction that got cb on sep for comparison, don't use others ppl for comparison, later same fate like Maybank and HSBC

may i know ambank true visa the 3%cashback how does it work.
lets say top up 1k to bigpay. I Pay 970 on the month (cashback will be in the month itself),  or still need to pay 1k for that month, then the 30 will be in next month ?
*
if your cb came in within 20 days after your statement date, then you just pay RM970, else RM1000 and next month onwards RM970.
