What card are you using? For charge cards, you should register on the amex website, but for credit cards, you'll have to register at m2u

@tinkerbel
CS was telling me it's transaction date as well, just to collaborate info =)

Same here... recieved card but with no instructions / info.

A bit appalling if you ask me, other plat/gold cards came complete and with free gifts/vouchers.

@bingozero : the new one is a credit card, you'll have to register at m2u to view your transactions/points

@RJdio : Well, the new amex gold is pretty basic. free for life, no strings attached, don't think you can expect much. If you really wanna be pampered, try applying for the The Platinum Card (Amex platinum charge card) whistling.gif

When you login, you click "Accounts & Banking" to view your account summary right? At that page, click "Rewards Points" on the left side of the page. Then click "Treats Points" to view your points. It's actually MR points, but since it's m2u website, it's listed as TP

Ah ok, so should be including admin charges already. Sure, here's 2 simple comparisons:
(both had transaction dates of 28/08/2009)

Amex
1,620 JAPANESE YEN BILLED AS - RM62.71

Direct Access Master Card
2,000 Yen - RM76.90 

So including admin charges, that roughly works out to conversion rates of (for every 1k yen) 38.709 for Amex vs 38.45 for DA MC

Hope that helps smile.gif

Based on your info, Amex’s conversion rate is 0.68% higher than DA MC rate, which is not a significant difference and is still acceptable. smile.gif

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Sep 3 2009, 10:41 AM)
Also, when I spoke with the CS last week to enquire about my Amex Gold CC, I was told this particular contest follows Transaction Date and not Posting Date.  I checked with him twice because the X6 contest was based on Posting Date.
*
You can refer to the clause no. 3(f) of the T&Cs below. It states the contest is based on posting date.

Besides, I've just made the purchase by splitting the payment: 5k for Alliance Younique MC (RM68.25 rebate + 1x point), 5k for Alliance Plat Visa (RM68.75 rebate + 1x point), and 30k for Citi Plat Visa (1x point). I can't take advantage of 2x points from Amex.

Yea, you actually earn MR although the website will show as TP

Think I recall a number of forumers here who have said no, you can't combine. Which makes sense, they're 2 seperate reward program

Yea, pretty acceptable to me. Rather consolidate my points in a particular card, and I definately prefer charge cards since I don't keep outstanding balances. (apart frm my Amex Gold CC, since there's 0% finance charge till December)

Hmm, quite weird for their CS to get it wrong, they're usually pretty well informed.
