Ways to apply for the Maybankard 2 Cards:
1. Go to branch and fill in application form and submit it there.
2. Download application form and fax to 03-2283 6245.
3. By email to maybankardsales@maybank.com.my (better you call MBB Customer Service to confirm address)
4. Call Maybank or American Express Customer Service if you are a current Maybank credit card holder.


You can check your Maybankard 2 Cards transactions online with Maybank2U.com
If you do not have a Current or Savings Account with Maybank but you want a Maybank2U online account to check your Maybankard 2 Cards transactions, you need to go to a Maybank branch to get it done. Better that you inform the officer that you want the Maybankard 2 Visa or MasterCard as the main account and add your Maybankard 2 Amex to it. However if you want your Maybankard 2 Amex to be the main card for the account, when you first log in to register username add 0 to the 15 digits of your Amex card. You DON'T need to have a Maybank Current or Savings Account to do this.

However, if you are new to credit cards, I strongly recommend that you DO NOT opt for the paperless option (i.e. receive our monthly statements online) until you familiarize yourself with Statement Balance, Outstanding Balance, Minimum Payment and Payment Due Date.

Maybankard 2 Cards FAQ:

1a. Must read - SST information
Credit to cybpsych
user posted image
user posted image
1b. M2 cards will be charged RM25 x 2 = RM50 SST, CANNOT BE WAIVED. Can use TreatPoints (10k = RM25) to redeem / offset within 6 months of SST being charged.
2. This is a 2 cards combo - AMEX together with master/visa, you CAN cancel the master/visa (using SST as reason provided your card was approved before 1 Sep 2018).
3. The rebate is calculated according to the CALENDER month and not per your monthly statement cycle.
M2C Weekend Cashback Terms and Conditions [ Link ]
user posted image
4. The rebate is usually credited to the AMEX card on the 1st or 2nd of the month (and normally shown in M2U by 2nd 12pm).
5. No more GST for Maybankard 2 Cards (both principal and supplements) starting from 01 April 2015.
6. If you receive the cards through postage, you can activate it online through M2U (though some reported activation is not required). If you get your cards from the bank/credit card center counter, you do not need to activate it.
7. You do not need to post back the acknowledgment copy when you receive the card by post/courier.
8. The weekend rebate capped of RM50/month for the Maybankard 2 Amex is shared between the Principal and Supp cards.
9. If your M2U shows that you have a Maybankard 2 Cards Account, congratulations, it means you 'll be getting the cards soon. Call Customer Service if you do not want the cards or call them anyway to confirm.
10. You don't need to have a Savings Accounts or other Banking Accounts to have a M2U account for your MBB 2 Cards. You need to go to the branch to sign up for M2U to view your transactions online. Some branches are known to be unable to link both cards into a single M2U account.
11. If you cannot swipe the card at the merchant, call Customer Service number behind the card.
12. The 5% cash back on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) for MBB 2 AMEX is for all spending and is in additional to the 5X Treats Points (equivalent to 1% max).
13. Maybank Platinum credit cards including MBB 2 does not grant free access to KLIA or LCCT Plaza Premium Lounge.
14. You earn 1x TP everyday with your Maybankard 2 Visa or MasterCard and including Petrol. Good for stations that does not accept AMEX.
15. If you link your paypal account to MBB 2 AMEX, it will take 2-3 days before it is shown in M2U.
16. This is what is mentioned behind our Maybankard Statement - Foreign Charges converted by AMEX apply a coversion factor of 2.5% to the converted amount plus 0.5% administration cost imposed by Maybank.
17. The Maybankard 2 AMEX earns you 1x TP for every RM charged to your card by default. The rest of the TP is recorded as 4x bonus TP (written as MAYBANKARD 2 AMEX 4X BONUS in your statement), making it a total of 5x TP for all charges made to your MBB2 AMEX.
18. To earn the 5% cash back, TRANSACTION DATE shown in M2U or statement must be on weekend (Sat/Sun), posting date will determine which month the cashback will be rewarded.
19. The 5% Cash Back payout MONTH is subjected to POSTING DATE not transaction date. You will always get the cash back on the 1st day of the following month straight after the POSTING DATE, normally shown in M2U by 2nd 12pm. Here's a detail example by ronnie

I thought this has been discussed many times that it will charge RM25 per card, ie RM50?

Anyway, thank you Maybank for the fantastic benefits for AMEX. I guess I would cancel it before my card next anniversary date.

Congratulation for V20

Loving the Amex, mostly for groceries in the weekends and saw a number of people use them in the cashier.

The SST implementation is really a bummer for us who is looking to utilise cash back from credit cards to lessen some of the burden that originated from the increased living cost.

Let’s wait and see what happens after Sep 1.

Dumb Maybank and/or Gov

Since M2C comes by default with two cards and we have no option to keep only one of it, it shld be treated as a single product/card for the purposes of credit card tax.

Now it seems like to have pay RM 50 x 2

let's not jump to conclusion first. no final announcement from mbb regarding this.

there are 2 parts most ppl dont understand at all.

1) CHARGING of RM25/card SST is a MUST. so m2cards will get 2xRM25 for sure.

2) WAIVING is not part of SST but from the respective bank. in this case, whether Maybank has formulated a strategy/plan to absorb 1xRM25 for m2card, due to the nature of the combo that disallow users to cancel either card. if either card can be canceled, i dont think mbb willing to absorb, and just let user decide to keep the card (hence paying SST) or cancel (avoid paying SST).

what we are interested now is the part 2.... is mbb willing to absorb or not.

based on my chat with CS, TP redemption is at 12.5k TP to redeem/offset RM25 SST.

let's not jump to conclusion first. no final announcement from mbb regarding this.

there are 2 parts most ppl dont understand at all.

1) CHARGING of RM25/card SST is a MUST. so m2cards will get 2xRM25 for sure.

2) WAIVING is not part of SST but from the respective bank. in this case, whether Maybank has formulated a strategy/plan to absorb 1xRM25 for m2card, due to the nature of the combo that disallow users to cancel either card. if either card can be canceled, i dont think mbb willing to absorb, and just let user decide to keep the card (hence paying SST) or cancel (avoid paying SST).

what we are interested now is the part 2.... is mbb willing to absorb or not.

based on my chat with CS, TP redemption is at 12.5k TP to redeem/offset RM25 SST.

Since M2C comes by default with two cards and we have no option to keep only one of it, it shld be treated as a single product/card for the purposes of credit card tax.

Now it seems like to have pay RM 50 x 2

Well you can't look at it this way. Some banks have loopholes like PB Quantum and also VS if supp card with saperate statement then you can double cash back limit (ie Rm38 for principle and then supp can also earn up to Rm38)

Increased credit limit is good for you. I just read somewhere that there's some calculation where some percentage is based on the total money you owe divided by your credit limit. The higher the limit, the lower the percentage, which is good. Besides, it shows that the bank trusts you more.

U sure higher credit limit is healthier? If there is no negative impact I'll just leave it, else will request to revert back to previous credit limit.

yep, you are right. most importantly is to judge how much is your spending, which they will see your regular spending over your credit limit. then, they will see how prompt is your payment. that would be critical to bank to approve your loan.

At some point, you don't use the card at all, and the credit limit is high, some banks will just use the credit limit and get a certain percentage as your "regular spending", which actually is not even there. this is one of the reason why a lot people will call in to reduce credit limit.

usually on safe line, your regular spending is about 30% of your credit limit then it gives good chance to get a green light for bank to approve loan. of course, lower better.

well, it actually look at which bank too. for maybank, it is hard to get credit limit upgrade for free. so, this is actually a plus point where it shows maybank trust you.

usually high credit limit are available from overseas bank, not local. so local bank's high credit limit shows something on good side

You can request to cut your credit limit anytime by sending a letter to Maybank card centre.
You may get irritating calls from bank officers offering you personal loan, balance transfer etc as you have high CL and under-utilised. Luckily Maybank is not that aggressive calling cardholders.

With the recent re-introduction of SST, you never know..

My application was declined 3 weeks ago (before SST).

But yesterday (after SST), Maybankard sms saying my application is accepted.

Single application, walk in at Dataran HQ in Bangsar.

I'm still puzzled, but I don't mind the cards whistling.gif

Heh. Have to approve lah. A lot of people will be cutting their cards before the next renewal. Not many people will need 10-20 cards I presume.

Edit : my public bank also rejected this afternoon but approved this evening

You should reapply and tell them to expedite and approve within tomorrow. I think mass approval before SST, subjected that you don't have a bad record

Cooling period 3~6 months.

But for my case (long time ago), I got rejected from Maybank card centre, and I re-apply from roadshow after a week.

Surprisingly, it approved, no idea how they judge

Nope, didn't appeal. Branch already said must fill up form again, and CS said they'll try (try means no promises or guarantees). I just use the computerized response where I key in my IC to check.

I found better options after applying (Maybank 2 Amex, and even Hong Leong's 25% cashback @ RM200 max for people who never own a Hong Leong credit card). I checked again at nite because I read here someone got approved later after getting rejected with Maybank, and wanted to ensure it stays rejected because I don't want any surprises with SST if they approve it on Sept 3. Don't want to pay before I earn tongue.gif

I think after SST, there'll be less applications. My friend say, it means less commission also tongue.gif

I think only la. We have at least 2 cases here including me who got rejected and then approved.

Today is last day already. Worth a shot, but hard to say can get through or not. I applied mine on the 21st. Total time is more or less the same as physical form application.

I think better wait and see if banks offers to cover SST for the first year. Or Tun / Uncle Lim Jr give some merdeka gifts (like postponing SST another moon or no SST for credit cards) tomorrow.

Edit : Hong Leong Bank no longer issues instant approval credit cards. You can request to send the card to your preferred mailing address upon approval. Normally it will take between 7 to 14 working days to process a credit card application upon submission of complete documentations.

I am using M2Card.
After heard SST news, I applied Barcelona vs early this month and got approval.
I am going to cancel M2card before March 2019.

M2C is a good CB + TP card, unless you seldom use AMEX especially during weekend

My expenses not much. Roughly RM500 per month, 70%amex30% visa.
Not all merchants support amex.

If they charge RM25, I will consider to keep. If they charge RM50, I will cancel it before March 2019.

It is good to keep both M2Card and FC Barcelona. AMEX can pump petrol, pay TNB, Unifi bill. FCB just for normal expenses.

Guys, its RM25 or RM50 annually....

With the amount of cashback you could earn every month, that RM50 is like a peanut tho.

This is cashless era, i can assure that if u spend wisely using cc, its worth it.

again, it depends on individual usage pattern. if u can max out the rm50 frequently then it’s worth it.

Absolutely true about the worth being dependent on individual spend pattern. With my regular spending every month, I usually accumulate enough to get RM50 CB.

Plus...I have used the accumulated treat points to claim woks, pots and pans from Kitchen Shop and ESH before. In that sense, I still think it's worth it.

5x treat points every day - I think - is the highest in the Maybank Cards (except for 8x petrol on weekends with Petronas Cards).

called up maybank to change my statement date and enquire about the SST charge,

For Maybank2Cards, each card will be charged rm25. No waive as such. So total RM50 will be charged la.

A way to waive is to use 10,000 treatpoints for one card. So if you wanna waive both cards, be prepared to use 20,000 treatpoints :/

No, never bother to ask. I enquire to cancel the card but was asked to keep it first until my anniversary month as now still won't be charged until my anniversary month. Regarding TPs, if i cancel and have no MBB cards at all, will the points disappear? Or it will transfer to my banking TreatsPoints?

I believe the TPs follow the cards, as according to the statements, each cards owns their TPs, so if you cancel your card, TPs goes away with it. But why not use the TPs to waive the card SST fee? Mines due in Oct cry.gif

someone do correct me if I'm wrong.

Maybank 2 Cards plus the supplementary cards...I guess I'm looking at RM100 Annual SST fee.

Wondering if it's worth switching to Petronas Platinum or FCB.

Yeah, that's right. I think I will first wait for announcement from Maybank before taking action.

I think the PETRONAS and PETRONAS IKHWAN card cashbacks and treat poings are only for weekends. I could be (and am probably) wrong.

Thinking about forking out RM100 is inducing knee-jerk reactions but considering cash back, treat points and interest from deposits, it all more than covers it and may be RM50 a year is probably insignificant.

for me it's simple. if you get cashback >RM25 per year, then keep it as you will still get more. But those dormant cards, I'd recommend to cancel them..

Under the Service Tax (Rate of Tax) Order 2018, Lim said RM25 will be charged for each principal credit card or charge card on the date it is activated or the date it is renewed, and every time the card is renewed.

Whoever can activate online, I think better try activate it online by midnite.

Conclusion for FCBarcelona and M2cards holder:
If you spend average RM200/more by using Amex, worth to keep both cards
May and August- use FCB visa
The other 10 months
Rm200*10*5%=RM100 (if you use FCB Visa RM200*10*2%=RM40) RM60 extra
You will get 10000 treatpoints to off set amex service charge
You still earn RM35 after pay Visa service charges.

Hi Sifus here,

I have a question...Is it confirmed that Maybank 2 card will have 2x RM25 SST charges for the 2 cards?

If I remember correctly, pre-GST time, the 2 cards only subjected to 1x RM50 SST.

If now is 2x RM25 SST, can we cancel the visa/master card that we usually won't use?

Let say I have TP of 60k in my Principal Amex,

can I use to offset SST on all my Principal Visa and the other supplementary 2 cards?

I'm really not sure if TP is considered as single account in all MBB cards.

if PBB can allow ppl to cancel one of the quantum cards, MBB should consider that as well. Or make the other card more attractive.

there are few grey areas, especially on the TP redemption.

FAQ Clause #11 has this: The redemption is applicable to cards that are awarded with TreatsPoints or Membership Rewards Points.

1) does it mean only cards with TP features can redeem?
2) each card redeem from its own TP or cumulative?
3) how about cards without TP like FCB VS?

Should be ok, if following old rule.
But for me, RM25 and 10k TP are equivalent.

I need to go back and read a few posts to understand your "TP value..." statement, but just like you...I'm in the same boat; with supplementary cards. And my wife doesn't even use the cards because she can't redeem anything.

Supplementary cancellation on the horizon for me; me thinks. wink.gif

Plus...started to think about FCB and PETRONAS Platinum (non-islamic) cards.

Refer to TP catalogue, you may redeem RM100 voucher with 57,500 TP
When you use Amex (x5 TP), you get slightly less than 1 cent with every RM1 spent (0.87%, dropped from 1.08% previously).
It is slightly better if you redeem on the spot - 500TP for RM1 = 1% with Amex (dropped from 1.25% before 1-July 2018).
In another way, 1TP is worth approx 0.2 cents.

To redeem SST with 10,000 TP, you use 10k x 0.2c = RM20 to offset RM25 SST.
Hence, redeeming SST is RM5 better.

However, if you are into Airmiles, average calculation for business class redemption is approx 3-5% (or more).
Provided you can gain enough TP for airmiles redemption before expiry, this is way better option.

I agree with you.

If we pay the card service tax as a part of our statement balance, we need to pay RM 25.00 per card, with cash.

However, we only need to redeem 10000 Treatspoints (equivalent to RM 20.00), to pay for card service tax for each card, and we get to enjoy RM 5.00 indirect discount on card service tax.

So, it is more worthwhile to pay the card service tax, with our Treatspoints. smile.gif

I look beyond the monthly rebate... Maybank cards offer discount on Lazada, Shopee, dining places, air tickets etc.
So RM75 cost per year (3 Maybank cards) to keep the benefits still a good investment.

just sharing my recent purchase.

went senq, bought a new laptop using amex @ 25 Aug (Sat). converted directly to maybank 6mth installment (without additional fee). maybank terminal. printed mbb receipt showing installment amount + last month amount.

today, ZERO cashback received for Amex (was expecting full RM50) bye.gif

TP-wise, if i counted correctly, 1X TP credited few days after purchase. i guess the remaining 4X TP after statement generated (?), which is this weekend.

1st installment falls on this weekend. will monitor on 2 Oct if my Amex gets cashback for the installment amount that falls on weekend smile.gif

You are correct on the jompay transaction amount which i did not get for CB. Btw this is not stated on amex2 cards Tnc, right?
Just called the CS. They will log report for me to escalate the missing CB for 3 jompay transactions as they dont find the tnc for jompay. Let’s see after 5 working days.

And regarding the min RM1 CB, i still get it for the transaction below RM20. CS read it for me, transaction RM18.3 entitled for RM0.91 CB.
Probably it meant for monthly earned CB has to be above RM1 to entitle CB?

Technically Jompay/FPX is not a Amex transaction.
Jompay/FPX don't use Amex network so the merchants/beneficiary never pay the Amex fee.
Jompay/FPX is a fund transfer service managed by Bank Negara and Banks in Malaysia.
As new M2U platform just allowed you to use Amex account for Jompay/FPX, Maybank may have overlooked to add this exclusion for M2 Amex. This exclusion is clearly stated for Visa/Mastercard.

Yup, I did call the CS Team

Officer told me that it should be getting full rebate since this is Easy Payment but not Easy Plus Payment.

He then raised a report for me to Rebate Department to check and see, 5 working days needed.

Easy Plus Payment = Meaning card holder call in to the bank and request for instalment plan, offer by bank itself

For TP earn, easy payment only x1 TP given

thanks for sharing.

i'll give MBB a call as well.

**update: CS filed a report. she suspected due to some error during SST cutover on 1 Sep. Asked about EPP, the cb is based on the actual full amount, not the installments later. **

Is there a reason why some people would prefer MasterCard to the VISA?

I have a MasterCard and have always wondered if it would be better to change to VISA.

no. Visa and Master are almost the same, if you have a merchant that takes visa 100% they will take master too.

It probably boils down to what promotion Visa gives out or Master gives out or their exchange rate.

Since I already have pbb master. So no point for me to have 2 master. If I change to visa, then I'll have amex, master, and visa. Nicer ma, no? laugh.gif

Technically Jompay/FPX is not a Amex transaction.
Jompay/FPX don't use Amex network so the merchants/beneficiary never pay the Amex fee.
Jompay/FPX is a fund transfer service managed by Bank Negara and Banks in Malaysia.
As new M2U platform just allowed you to use Amex account for Jompay/FPX, Maybank may have overlooked to add this exclusion for M2 Amex. This exclusion is clearly stated for Visa/Mastercard.
*
Can share where the exclusion for FPX is stated for Visa/Mastercard? Btw, Jompay transactions are eligible for cashback for UOB YOLO so should be applicable for Amex too unless it is specifically excluded like FCB VS.

cannot compare with other cards la. each has their own logic.

fpx/jompay not entitle amex cb is not stated, hence you can file dispute and argue the fact. my friend did just that, havent hear from him the outcome.

Yes, true.

I was just thinking that we can use Samsung Pay at merchants; who don't take AMEX, to make up for the loss of cb and 5 x tp; so I thought VISA would be more desirable.

That's just me; with only Maybank Cards, thinking. If you have access to other cards from other banks, I guess it makes some sense. If you think the hassle is worth it (or no hassle), go for it.

not per transaction

per month, total earned cb min rm1 to be awarded. meaning 1 month min spend rm20.

if u spend properly with amex (for trx eligible for 5X TP), you'll earn 5X TP anyway. easy to achieve.

I'm sorry as I don't have that particular card and I'm not aware of that.

But RM 25 CST redemption is using only one redemption code in the TP redemption form:

QUOTE
RM25 Service Tax Redemption: STR01 (10,000 Points)
URL: https://www.maybank2u.com.my/iwov-resources...mption-form.pdf


My guess only that it could be able to pool from other existing card(s) if you have it.

Hmm...it says SST redemption by using treat points is only applicable to cards that has treat point feature.

If I re-iterate based on written words, SST for FCB can't be redeemed with treat points because FCB is not eligble for treat points. That's how I understand this.

Best is to ring up CS for clarification.

If they're strict for that, then just pay RM 25 to keep that particular card.
RM 100 CB for May & August is very worth!

Hmm...it says SST redemption by using treat points is only applicable to cards that has treat point feature.

If I re-iterate based on written words, SST for FCB can't be redeemed with treat points because FCB is not eligble for treat points. That's how I understand this.

So, in short, we can’t use TP earned From AMEX to pay m2visa / master Card SST as well?

That's why cybpsych claimed that it's ambiguous.

By the way, MBB2 Visa/Mastercard has TP but you may not have enough to redeem the RM 25 CST with 10k TP.

Who can be the kind soul to give a call to CS for clarification.
Thanks!

m2c visa/mastercard can earn TP mah, so can redeem.

whether we can cross-card redemption, is something unclear.

if u spend properly with amex (for trx eligible for 5X TP), you'll earn 5X TP anyway. easy to achieve.

i'm more interested to know if m2c TP can be used to redeem SST waiver for FCB VS instead.

I think when the time comes, I will offset with my TP since I hardly spend my TP. M2Cards are one of those cards which I will definitely keep.

FAQ 11 states "The redemption is applicable to cards that are awarded with TreatsPoints or
Membership Rewards Points."

FCB Features state "TreatsPoints is not eligible for this card".

Membership reward points are only applicable to AMEX Charge Cards.

So for me, it's pretty clear. SST redemption with TreatPoints not possible for this (FCB) card.

Just my reasoning.

I just cancel all my supplementary cards, as not worth to pay the SST.

As understand from CS, once the SST is charged, can't waive even you want to cancel right after, so is either TP offset or pay.

My Ikwan is one of it expiry on Sept. Luckily manage to cancel today... sweat.gif

CS is thumbsup.gif , one call cancel 4 cards.... biggrin.gif

For those who wish to cancel, better check the date.... before charged!

when bank will charge SST for CC? is based on expiry date of the card?
Since my card until 2021 so not necessary to pay for now right?

only for new application after 1st September or card renewal.
"KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 — A service tax of RM25 will be imposed on either new credit card users or those who renew their credit cards from September 1 onwards, the finance minister has ordered."

mbb's sst charging is based on EXPIRY MONTH. your "2021" is the year, not the month.

refer FAQ: https://www.maybank2u.com.my/iwov-resources...ardsSST_FAQ.pdf

i've double-confirmed this with MBB CS few mins ago.

new card: SST charged immediately, and subsequently anniversary based on expiry month.
existing card: based on expiry month, including all subsequent cards that follows the 1st card's expiry month.

I'm sorry as I don't have that particular card and I'm not aware of that.

My guess only that it could be able to pool from other existing card(s) if you have it.

received callback from MBB regarding my call this morning about FCB VS SST TP redemption from other cards' TPs....

answer: YES

essentially, TP is accumulated at user-level, then it can be redeem for all mbb cards under the user.

based on my checking with MBB, yes

if you look at your Card B and Card C, the expiry month/year actually follows Card A's expiry month/year.

for SST, it'll be based/tracked from card's expiry month, and then the SST RM25/card will be charged on the 15th of that expiry month.



my problem with this method is for new card.

Card A: expiry month March. to be imposed SST on March 2019.
New Card D: applied this month Sep 2018, SST imposed immediately, but the expiry month follows Card A's expiry month on March.

What will happen in March 2019 for Card D then? hmm.gif confused.gif

My case in 2011.
M2 approved in 03/2011 but card expiry 10/XX, Service tax charged in 04/2011, No service tax charged in 10/2011, subsequent ST charged in 10/2012.

SO I assume if under same calendar year, SST charged once only.

Yalor... that's why today 1 off chop few cards... some really not willing to let go. (My Ikwan)

Mainly i chop the supp, as not worth cos of sharing the same CB poll.

By rights should followed the previous way charge 1 card only, as we do not have option to cancel 1 card (i mean Amex 2 cards).

personally to me yes...i'll be using the cashback to counter the service tax...so that 1 month rugi la got lesser cashback...plus using 10k points for maybank 2 card for the mastercard...rugi la 10k each year, ...but can easily get 5xpoints + atill able to get 5% cashback

Hi,

Question. How do I remove the unauthorised card under credit card? It was a supplementary card from my parent few years back, but it's not removed in my m2u.

If only Lazada accepts AmEx... Yes, everything (except for JomPay) so long it accepts AmEx.

1 BT RM1800 @ 0% and 12 months can earn more than RM25.

Again, 100% CB at 2014-15, I already earned the credit to pay 100 years Card ST. You were also one of the winners getting a few thousand RM. To win the game, most of the time must use Visa/MC as Amex were not widely accepted, and avoid weekends due to the crowds (my strategy). biggrin.gif

I think u were not active in LYN during that time. For the 100% CB, 99% swipes I used Amex, so got full monthly rm50 Cb + TP as well. Enuf to pay few hundred years of SST. rclxm9.gif

very very rarely bank will absorb SST since it's given to gov. besides using points to pay sst, hopefully we will see better credit card benefits in the future.

You have to call up Maybank2me and ask.

Only difference between Gold and Platinum is travel insurance. And of course, you get to show off to your friends. If your Maybank2Gold cards are due for SST soon, you can probably get them upgraded before its expiry.

just sharing my recent purchase.

went senq, bought a new laptop using amex @ 25 Aug (Sat). converted directly to maybank 6mth installment (without additional fee). maybank terminal. printed mbb receipt showing installment amount + last month amount.

today, ZERO cashback received for Amex (was expecting full RM50)  bye.gif

TP-wise, if i counted correctly, 1X TP credited few days after purchase. i guess the remaining 4X TP after statement generated (?), which is this weekend.

1st installment falls on this weekend. will monitor on 2 Oct if my Amex gets cashback for the installment amount that falls on weekend smile.gif

QUOTE(cybpsych @ Sep 2 2018, 04:11 PM)
thanks for sharing.

i'll give MBB a call as well.

**update: CS filed a report. she suspected due to some error during SST cutover on 1 Sep. Asked about EPP, the cb is based on the actual full amount, not the installments later. **

received RM50 cb adjustment.

I am using Maybank 2 Gold.

02/09/2018 - No cash back for JOMPAY transactions (members affected kindly call customer service to confirm)

This means paying through maybank2u using AMEX won't give any cashback on weekends?

My first Maybank Card was Petronas Gold Visa。 It appeared at my CCRIS. After that I added M2Card and FC Barcelona card. But CCRIS only show the Petronas Gold record only. Is it normal? Because I plan to cancel the Petronas Gold later on due to SST charges. Will it affect my ccris record? Or Petronas Gold is main card I cannot cancel it?

When you added "M2Card and FC Barcelona card"?
Banks only update CCRIS every 15th of the month.
Usually the info is one month delayed.

If you cancel the card and you still see the card in CCRIS after about 3 months later, call CS to insist them to remove it from CCRIS.

Should more than 1month already. Let monitor next month. If not I try to call CS. So all the card that you hold will appear in CCRIS? Including the combine limit?

The bank didnt force u. U got the option to accept their package or choose single Amex card. It is like you go buy a car but tell the seller u dont want their tayar because u can get cheaper tayar somewhere else. They cannot force u to buy the car come with their 4 tayars....p

ahhh thanks bro. Sounds a bit like I went through with JomPay. Some bank allow credit cards, some not. My case is not time specific though. So I think have to try and looky see available or not.

And I don't have Maybank cards. Just my experience trying to pay from other banks. FPX still new to me. I'm just using it to help a friend recently to pay cash to SOCSO because I couldn't choose credit card. Payee specific maybe?

Yes can request but if your currently document with them not eligible they will ask you to provide updated documents. Last time when I request, because earlier document already meet requirement, they just give me a new visa signature card while maintaining my m2c gold card. Recently I request for upgrade from gold to platinum(for travel insurance with Amex), they mention will send new card and old card cancel.

mbb's sst charging is based on EXPIRY MONTH. your "2021" is the year, not the month.

i've double-confirmed this with MBB CS few mins ago.

new card: SST charged immediately, and subsequently anniversary based on expiry month.
existing card: based on expiry month, including all subsequent cards that follows the 1st card's expiry month.

Card C - approved on August 18

Base on the bolded part , does it mean that all my 3 card will kena SST on Mar 19? Thanks.

Is it right that the SST is charged based on expiry month and not card issue month?

If i refer to Guideline from custom quoted below:

Cards issued before 1 September 2018 and valid for several years Service tax shall be imposed on the date of renewal and every 12 months after the renewal date.

Example 3
A new credit card is issued on 18 May 2018 with a validity period for five years. The issuer of the credit card shall impose a service tax in every monthly statement covering 18 May 2019, 18 May 2020, 18 May 2021 and 18 May 2020.

My case is very weird:
Card A - approved on Nov 16 - expiry month Nov
Card B - approved on Oct 17 - expiry month Oct
Card C - approved on Jun 18 - expiry month Oct

Card A & B expiry month follow card approval month, but, Card C follow Card B expiry. rclxub.gif

1+ am today got 2 SMS that my Maybank2Kard Amex was used on some online travel reservation website. Just called Maybank and they said there was a 3rd transaction (no SMS received by me). Obvious fraud so they've blocked the card yada yada.

No very recent transactions, last transactions were over the weekend (physical swipes at Village Grocer and Mcdonalds, as well as one charge on GSC). I've suspected for a long while based on reports from this thread that AMEX security is just crappy and cards can randomly get used for fraud....

That's why I have an online account to all my credit cards. I open them every few days to check my transactions. To see whether they are correct or not.

If you have a fraud transaction and you only check every few days there's a lot of transactions possible.

There isnt any practical difference, so just get the gold.

I used to like to book hotels via agoda, so using plat card you get 2% extra discount compared to gold. This additional 2% is applicable to all banks that ties up with agoda.

Hey guys, just want to ask about maybank2 cards.

Just received my dual card today.

Based on the website, it says that the only Amex Card has 5 percent cashback while the master or visa doesn’t have.

However many places do not accept amex.

Just wondering if the master or Visa card has 5% cashback on weekends too?

No rebate for M2 Visa/MC, max 1 treatpoint worth 0.2%. It is just a backup in case Amex is not accepted by the merchant.

if your wife eligible to apply m2card, might as well cancel the supp and apply her own principal instead. at least both parties get separate cb.

else if your m2card cb not maxed out, can just cancel the supp. tedious but at least not burdened unnecessarily by the SST for supp cards. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

True. With current SST charge, no point keep for supp card already. As pay same as principal, but share the same cb pool.

At least last time is cheaper, so still worth to keep.

I see

alternatively, get a decent card go reload into bigpay. then she use bigpay freely without much constraint.

eg PBB quantum -> bigpay, max reload rm600 to get max rm30 cb. I guess rm600 per month is good enough for your wife for daily spend.

not necessary to buy aa ticket

the bigpay mastercard let ur wife spend like normal card. it's actually a prepaid card.

combine with decent cc with cashback, u get cb easily and no constraint for ur wife to use anytime/day (instead of m2c at weekends)

For cancelled cards, I heard you can bug or debug the bank. Don't think you can do anything about rejected records. If I don't have a memory crosslink with something else, it'll be removed after 3 or 6 moons.

Cancelled cards will still appear under Outstanding credit
They'll flush out after 12 months.
That section is called Credit application

QUOTE
3. Credit application

This is the section where banks look carefully to see if you can take on another loan based on your current status. This article shows if you have applied for any credit facility in the last 12 months if you are approved or rejected. If your recent activity discloses that you have a current application that has been denied, your credit worth will seem questionable, and it could mean that you are unable to make repayments. If it has been approved recently, then it will also look questionable why you need another line of credit if you can pay for it considering your existing commitments.

Is eCCRIS and CCRIS report had any different? I had cancelled my MBB 2 Gold Card in Aug, and it had disappeared from eCCRIS. Between, eCCRIS consists of "Outstanding Credit", "Special Attention Account" & "Application for Credit" only..

Spend RM1000 for RM50 CB as always. CB does not take out your accumulated spending amount.

Yea. Try to get a CC from the bank that you bank in salary monthly.
Best to bank in salary to the same bank (if not direct transfer from your company).
They have your record and easier to get approval.

Agreed. I applied Ambank credit card and it was rejected. My annual income was 1.5× of requirements. I asked the customer service why my application was rejected. They replied bank has
the right to reject application without any reason.

Then I applied Maybank 2 cards. I received salary via Maybank. I received SMS approval within 3 days.

If your company allows you to choose your bank, switch to Maybank2me instead of applying CIMB card.

Or try attach a copy of your CIMB savings passbook along with salary slip on your next application to prove it's real.

You can check the amex thread to see if the places that accept it are those you frequent. Otherwise just use it to pay bills.

Thanks bro! That's a lot nearer to my office.

Speaking of Maybank2me cards, years ago they sent a couple of cards to the company I no longer worked for though I did not apply for them. I only found out when they started billing me for it and it shows up on Maybank2me. I don't really update my passbook, so it was past 6 moons when I found out so I could not get the detailed transactions on my passbook. They claimed they did not autodebit my savings, but nearly $100 showed up under the credit card section. Was still naive back then. Should've grilled them nicely to get me the detailed transactions on my savings account.

Today, I presume they'd whack me with 18% interest instead of autodebiting my savings, right?

QUOTE(engyr)
They replied bank has the right to reject application without any reason.

Yes, every bank clearly stated that they reserve this right. I've been rejected because I wouldn't submit the additional docs they wanted, because the application form clearly stated A or B or C instead of A and/or B and/or C.

Would be interesting to know if anyone complained about it to a higher level at the respective bank. Yes, I did that, but I took too long to find the contact. The said bank officer won't give me the contact other than the general complaint channel.

https://www.maybank2u.com.my/mbb_info/m2u/p...sonal/CRD-Cards says $50. Some details on the maybank2me site are stale though.

I think it's best to call CS. If it's not visible online, I don't think you can find another way to view it.

More or less same here.

So it was after I got rejected that I found out about this credit rating thingy and having no rating is bad. You probably get the best rating when you're 80% drowned in debts but able to service them on time.

Recently, some casual talks with a bank officer reveals that they don't need any supporting docs if I have MYR1m worth of deposits with them. Not maybank2me though.

Minus the goodies, Direct Access was the "best", but I guess you guys missed the boat. Was just talking to my classmate about it the other day. The father of "free for life" cards, I think.

No, his response was for my statement that 1 bank I spoke to say they don't need any docs if I have MYR1m deposit with them.

But yeah, somehow, I feel banks don't recognize income from FD. Like I say to myself - they look at credit rating, not debit rating tongue.gif Some people who manages their finance well won't be in debt and don't buy houses, so they have minimal credit rating. I only have credit card bill that rarely goes above 1k. And not to say I manage my finance well. I just buy what I need and not what I want. I'm a cheapskate.

Some people get FIRE-d before retirement age and live on Passive Income.
Some passive income are not subject to income tax and not in Form B/BE.

It is not difficult to prove >RM36k FD interest/year.

But yeah, somehow, I feel banks don't recognize income from FD. Like I say to myself - they look at credit rating, not debit rating tongue.gif Some people who manages their finance well won't be in debt and don't buy houses, so they have minimal credit rating. I only have credit card bill that rarely goes above 1k. And not to say I manage my finance well. I just buy what I need and not what I want. I'm a cheapskate.

There are 2 categories.
If you need to apply for a CC, Credit rating is very crucial.
If you get a CC "by invitation", they offer based on the assets that you are having.

Ahhh thanks again for your clarifications bro.

I think I asked about this invitation thingy before. They told me to put in X amount of deposits, then they will invite me. So it's like asking them to invite me IF i meet their criteria, not they invite me.

My friend was invited before, I don't think he asked to be invited. Own lots of houses (neh, a few years ago before the property boom, they call it "use bank to make money"), so has a big fat loan with the bank. The family's been doing it for years before the property boom, so I think they're quite loaded by now.

I understand you, though in my case i applied for credit limit increase (only peanuts 6k now). Because according to the bank staff if you're applying for new cc from mbb, the existing cc limit will likely be revised too.. Then should be somewhat similar right? Mbb is also my income crediting bank..

Anyway, I have applied 5x for cc limit increase from mbb which includes 3x appeals (and further recommendation from manager lastly), very sadly still declined. Ccris clean.. Substantial savings in amanah saham (even gave them detail statements for the year for all funds to prove I'm not using any of the money in AS) in the event they think I'm not 'credit worthy'..

No problem getting new cc from pbb (supposedly very strict too) and their cc limit is 4x my mbb limit (also apparently strict on their cc limit). Also no issue with temporary cc limit increase from cimb.. Absolutely embarrassing.. Lost 1 future client, think I'm not the only one judging from this thread (don't think they care anyway). Ultimately as I've mentioned before, it's just pure luck.. Just keep applying after intermittent period..

Of course terminate before the charge is in la. As long as it's before your card's annual renewal.

If you don't need the high limit, don't bother with it lah. I never change my CIMB limit for 10 years. I did try to reduce the limit when I just got it, but they told me that's the minimum for my card. So.......... smile.gif Just Platinum, not the high end cards.

I see.. Yea. Actually I wanted the high limit then because i wanted to utilize the mbb 0% 12 months bt plan, which was reintroduced and i coincidentally also had a large purchase around the same time.. Previously i wasn't too concerned about the low limit given, been using the card for more than 3 years with the initial limit given (more than sufficient for the cb).. So yea, ended up using the pbb 0% 6 months bt plan only.. So you see there's a 'loss of business' (since someone mentioned before, banks hope those who use BT will fail to pay and then earn from the late interest).. Can't also say they don't care about ikan bilis right, otherwise they won't be bothered to offer many types of loan facilities/products to ikan bilis.. Business is business, doesn't matter your financial background..

But at least the experience was an eye opener for me.. So, just apply any cards you like and hope for the best (literally).. laugh.gif

look at something from a different angle...

What you want is the weekend rebate (5%) only, right?

10k TP to redeem ST RM25. It is damned easy to spend RM2k-4k (other than Govt, Charity, Utilities, Insurance) in 12 months!

Go for 0% 12-month BT RM2k, then put the fund in a high-yield CASA/FD and pay instalments monthly, you will earn more than RM25.

Shopee SG @ Cybersource - Not US, should be London, but using Greenwich Mean Time, instead of British Summer Time (GMT+1 during late March - Late October).

The best time to use M2 Amex is at Malaysia Time (GMT+8) Saturday 8pm to Sunday 8pm. The whole world is on either Sat or Sun.
