I would say the more to press maybank to provide the ewallet exclude list. that list will become longer and all type of ewallet including bigpay will be in that list.

Wonder if really nobody no ask maybank on whether bigpay is in that exclude list. may be maybank no list bigpay as ewallet.

But, this no possible, sure a lot of kiasi and kiasu ppl out there.

So, just wait and try to use for small amount to test out.
yes, just wait and test and wait.

i noticed that the spending transaction for reload boost using amex, the category is moving from Telecommunication to Others in M2U, 19/6/2019 onward
*
which is why the "category" in m2u is not accurate because mbb re-categorizes them differently instead of following mcc.

i'm planning to swipe my cc for deposit 10k downpayment (hotel wedding).
AMEX (5x TP) or FCB (2% CB) is better?
AMEX TP no cap right? Meaning I will get 10,000 x 5 = 50,000 TP
If FCB, only get RM50 max cb for that month.

Or do you recommend other credit cards?
Appreciate your advice  biggrin.gif
Alot of swiping to be done for wedding  cry.gif  cry.gif

imo, depends on your cashflow situation smile.gif just my opinion la.

since wedding need multiple large payments, that means you need cash to be ready.

1) if you target cashback/points, you earn those but need to payback in full once statement is out. eg amex 5xTP (weekdays), gives 50k TP, can redeem for rm100 voucher. but remaining rm9.9k to be paid off soon smile.gif

2) if you target better cashflow, forego the cashback/points for the moment (still can use for eligible stuffs). target cards with 0% BT or 0% flexipayment. e.g. PBB Quantum's 0% 12mth Flexipay (min RM1200 per transaction to convert). u still get points from PBB cards, but maybe not that attractive. still can accumulate to considerable amount for your wedding expenditures though.

if you dont like "owing" money for too long and prefer to pay off quickly, then get the cashback/points.

just a simplistic view

I checked my account and cannot see treat points from CC page

either just temporary or unknown reasons.

just use classic m2u to check. or call cs. or wait for statement.

Then means that TM Unifi & TM Streamyx is consider telco.. Am I right?
I just want to double confirm for this.

Then what about astro? Is it consider utility?
*
use common sense la. even mbb spelled out the services under Utilities

do you think unifi/streamyx/astro considered as electric/gas/sanitary/water services?

Hi im quite noob regarding cc. Im planning to get iphone through easyphone plan since my contract finished d and nowadays celcom need cc for easyphone plan. How will it affects my credit limit ya if lets say my credit limit is rm12k and the monthly installment is rm220 for 2 years? Rm220 x 24 is rm5280 and so my balance left is rm6280. Is that right?
*
deduct lumpsum/full amount upfront (rm5280) from your credit limit.

upon payment of EACH monthly installment (rm220), it will be added back to credit limit

I saw e-pay offers service to pay for TNB. If e-pay accepts Amex perhaps can pay for TNB with this website
*

even if can accept cc or amex, epay online mcc is 4900

Thanks for the sharing.

I’m looking at alternative that can pay utilities like tnb and iwk via 3rd party vendor/website.

Something like e-pay and posonline, but those can only pay via online banking and not credit card
*
iwk/syabas, best with Boost

utilities like tnb or govt bills (e.g. assessment), get UOB YOLO card. pay thru jompay. kaotim. little planning to do but 8% cb max rm50 per month is easily achievable (usually not enough! biggrin.gif)

this coming dbkl assessment, mine already hitting rm396 (rm31.68 cb) for july. Luckily, the rest like astro/maxis postpaid, shift to m2c amex instead.

Thinking to pay Gov and Utilities bill on weekday.

Based on the table in the first page , I see weekend is 0 TP right? Since 1 June.

If 1x TP, why TS leave it blank instead of write 1x ?

he was replying to the question about WEEKDAYS paying Gov/Utilities using AMEX

govt = 0TP, any days
utilities = 1TP, weekdays

My AMEX Paywave isn't working for some reason.

I went to Maybank to check if there is any problem with my Amex CC. After the bank officer check with their system, they say my Amex card got no problem, PIN and Wave is functioning properly. They say could be merchant issue.

I tried many times again to pay using Wave at different merchant, the issue still persist. My Amex card cannot pay using Wave at all. Pay using PIN no problem.

I went to Maybank again and force them to change my Amex card to brand new one. I got my new Amex card (registered properly too). But the problem is still the same. My new Amex card also unable to pay using Wave method...

Any ideas why?
*
you should know 2 things:

1) terminal may not support amex contactless, and/or
2) merchant may not signup amex with their bank at all

answer to your next question: no way to know for sure. just keep trying. else, just pin instead.

amex is still a good card, even way before ewallet became popular in recent years.
