Just now try at mcd with amex contactless, and it's able to. First time using amex contactless woohoo  thumbup.gif

amex got contactless? U mean wave payment right? You just change your Amex CC??

QUOTE(beebee1314 @ Jun 6 2019, 12:15 PM)
What he means is, you buy laptop using Amex card on weekends. You will get cash back Rm50 from Amex. Then balance transfer the amount to Cimb credit card. Cimb has ongoing campaign for 6 months payment, 0% interest.

Balance transfer means Cimb helps u to pay maybank. Then Cimb split it over 6 months, and you repay back Cimb. Please check with Cimb whether is really 6 months 0% interest.

You will pay Cimb (3,600 - 50) / 6 months. So you don't have to pay 3,550 in one shot. Can split 3,550 over 6 months. Never use easy payment plan as most banks charged interest.

If not mistaken... Amex do have instalment plan too... Please correct me if I am wrong.

i used to pay TNB on weekends or set future weekends as payment date.

I'd like to confirm again, is AMEX disallowed cash back for utilities such as TNB?
*
I think utilities bills can forget to pay using amex on weekend... No 5% rebate anymore.. it is either u pay during weekdays or use another CC

QUOTE(eeeglow24 @ Jun 15 2019, 02:18 PM)
Is Amex usable in PSN online store?

I keep getting error when I tried to pay. The price of item is Rm90.30. But I cannot checkout with Amex.

Hope anyone can enlighten me on this. Thanks.

What is PSN?

unfair to Grabpay..

Exclusion to Boost can be understood coz ppl can reload and withdraw.
But pls no to Grabpay, as the money not able to be withdrawn yet sad.gif

Suddenly recalled the April Fool by Genxyz, nightmare comes true bangwall.gif

I think becoz people massively use it for boost and cash out..... they found out already....

you can imagine a lot of users leaving them because no longer able to top up e-wallet which is used to be common nowadays but others such as HLB is very hot now, even though some didn't get RM7 they still feel satisfy because they got chances to get more CB and bank also earn a lot due to the volume as compare to 150 winners only per hour. That's non-bumi marketing vs bumi marketing mindset
*
HLB got any cash rebate CC? Can share?

Just want to share.

Last week I purchased from Amazon using USD.
XE rate 4.18367
Paid with AMEX rate 4.2953
Paid with VISA rate 4.2891

This week
XE rate 4.1879
Paid with BigPay rate 4.187

So I think BigPay is the best rate for USD purchased.

you always buy things from amazon? shipping no problem?
so which means to say that Bigpay is able to use for amazon puchases ya?

Hi guys, not sure if this is the right place to post my query. Currently have some CC debts on my MBB card. I was reading up on some balance transfer and was curious how it works. Is it worth pursuing it as they have a 0% annual fee but with an upfront management fee of 3%.

I was exploring with the balance transfer option earlier but didn't click submit, but I noticed I was required to select another bank in order for me to proceed with the Balance Transfer.

Minimum was RM1K and max allowed as per the site was RM2,732. My current debt is around > RM8-9K and I am looking for ways to manage it better. I do make payments > the minimum required [+- RM2K monthly]but I would rather settle this properly before it spirals out of control.

Anyways, back to topic - does this mean I need to have a CC with another bank in order for me to pursue this Balance Transfer option?

Current scenario:

Salary bank - Maybank
Cards Impacted - Maybank
Balance Transfer - I need another card [not Maybank?]

Appreciate the advice.

Thank you.

balance transfer from MBB only can pay to your another bank CC debt... Your MBB CC debt need other bank Balance Transfer to be transfer it from other bank CC available limit to MBB CC

Yes, balance transfer means you transfer your outstanding over to other bank cc. (Restructure your overdue outstanding)

Different bank offer different % and repayment terms. So u need to look out for their offer, find as low as possible, and 0% interest.

Suggest if not able to payback, dont use cc. You will end up having less money by using your future money. 1 more suggestion, Can try OCBC cash flo card. When you swipe above 500, will auto divide into 3 months installment + 0%. Above 1000 will be 6 mth 0% interest installment, which I find it quite good deal...but have to pay on time of coz.

Good luck.
*
Thanks for recommend... you using it now? which means to say that the OCBC cash flo card no need you to transfer the outstanding balance to another bank CC to do BT?
