Not bad but they increase the shipping price recently  sry dozz, i know abit out of topic. but i wondering what u bought? i plan to buy a few of cosmetics stuffs from us which cost over usd300 and the weight is approx 3kg. i quite wry with the custom part. I just don't want being charged for high tax like 20% + 10% sth litat. it is ridiculous. so wana ask your shopping experience with Global eShop This post has been edited by princess_autumn87: Jun 2 2009, 05:50 PM

@Reventon, It's weird because when I indicated I'll cancel my card, Amex said, oK.. they'll allow me to cancel my card. They didn't offer to waive my RM800 so I went ahead to make that payment (that was last year when I initially got the card) I sure hope they be able to waive it for me this year though - but like U said, better find a way out first  @princess_autumn87, You're so lucky!!

QUOTE(winner @ Jun 2 2009, 05:35 PM) Funny! Today I received an Amex charge card via Poslaju although I did not submit an application for it! MBB cc agent did approach me for Amex few months ago but I rejected the offer. How could the bank send the pre-approved card to me directly? Anyway, I'll definitely cancel this card as I don't need too many cards. Moreover, Amex is not widely accepted in M'sia, and the 8x points promotion is finishing soon right? I'd probably charge RM50 on petrol and thus I'll be entitled for a free laptop bag. After receiving the bag I'll cancel the card immediately. For those who have already received thd laptop bag, how soon did you get your bag after receiving your 1st month statement? Did they charge courier fee? i got it 3 weeks after settle the payment no courier fee charges

Actually I think what princess did was to cancel the card and they waived off the annual fee as it was not fair to charge since only had the card for around 3 months or so ie. card a/c closed unlike when you choose to continue the a/c. So if you had cancel when you first received the annual fee, they would also have waived it off as well but then you won't be having further use of the card

@tgeoklin, I did contact the CS when I saw the RM800 AF charged to my bill about 2 months after I got the card; but they didn't want to waive it off for me. I told them I'd applied for the Gold card but they'd sent me the Platinum instead and if the RM800 cannot be waived then I don't want the card. Their respond to me (and I even have it in writing) is that they will cancel the existing Platinum card. No waiver was ever given to me!! *hmph* @winner, I believe there's a clause which states that you'll have to keep the card for at least 6 months before you can actually qualify for the gift; U better check that out

So if you had cancelled, then you also need not pay the annual fee as that's what I think Princess was trying to say. This post has been edited by tgeoklin: Jun 3 2009, 09:53 AM

@winner, No I haven't but usually there's such a clause. It's best if you checked with the CS. Then again, for something as small as a laptop bag, I don't think Amex will send someone to get the gift back from U, right?
