It should be 2 - 3 times of your salary but not everyone applied for a credit card using salary slip. Some got pre-approved complimentary Platinum credit card from their banks and the credit line usually is pretty high.

The maximum credit line for each Platinum series credit card brand is RM300,000. For instance you have a Platinum VISA and Mastercard Platinum, both issued by Hong Leong Bank. The maximum credit line possible is RM300,000 per card brand. Assume that Hong Leong Bank gives you the maximum credit line possible for your both Platinum VISA and Mastercard, your total combined limit from Hong Leong Bank for your credit cards is RM600,000.
Yes. Not pre-set spending limit that is.
Oh ... how so ? I can't apply for a AMEX Gold credit card now. Have to wait till August next year. Still a long time to go but i'm 99.99% sure i'll still be interested in this card then.

Is it because the 0% finance charge will be over then ?

600K CL is so cool, but who will spend so much?

Why you need to wait until next year august to apply? Even got reject can still reapply in 6 months time right?

After 6 months maybe i have other CC in my wallet already. So not intend to thicken my wallet with extra card.

hi all, i went to pavilion machine to purchase sth over the weekend. i saw they do accept amex *sticker displayed*

when i wanted to make the pymt by using amex and they refused to do so and asking other merchant like visa instead.

anyone tried purchase mac product using amex?

Yes.. i have bought a macbook pro from machine at around April this year using Amex , the only thing is they are not the platinum partners already  .

By the way i have put up the request for waiving Amex plat AF . Now waiting for Amex to contact me after this. Let's wait and see how is it.

I tried to use my Maybank Amex on last weekend (to be specific, last Saturday in Penang) in Jusco and BHP petrol station... Both transaction were failed... tried with my Amex sup card also the same (so confirmed my first amex card is in good condition)... both transactions have no issue with my Citibank Visa.

Called Maybank Amex CS, no issue on my account (very healthy... according to the CS )... no rejected transaction in the system as well. they said properly due to line issue.

Wondering did anybody face the same issue as well? If it's line issue, then this should affect everyone...

Is this kind of issue happen very frequent? I've just started to use Maybank Amex since last month due to it's good rewarding point.

Also notice that Amex is still not very popular in Malaysia... only those big merchants accept it!

To MBB Amex Gold CC owner, did you receive paper statement even you have specified you do not want it? Will bank charge us RM5 for this?
I recalled someone asked this before but don't think I see any proper reply to this.

Also I noticed points distribution in my statement is not correct. Following are my spendings:
- RM51.10 petrol
- RM29.35 tesco

But in statement state:
MR Points earned: 80
Amex Bonus points: 80
Petrol: 153
Tesco: 88

Total: 402

Quite confused with break down of the points. why not they make it:
petrol: 252
tesco: 150

Thanks.

Isn't the above correct?

You spent around RM80, so that's the regular MR points.
The Amex bonus relates to the 2x points for all transactions
Then to reach 5x on petrol/groceries, you get another 3x on petrol/groceries.

Thanks bro, this makes sense now... guess their way of breaking down the points might confuse first time user or maybe I'm too bad in math

Btw, do you receive paper statement from Amex even you have opted for e-statement?

FYI, Jasco shd be no problem accepting Amex. The jasco Wangsa Maju is using MBB.

btw, BHP is not accepting Amex based on my experience with my nearest BHP station at my place.

However, i start to love my Maybank Amex now... much better rebate/reward scheme... it's about 2.3% cash rebate for me this month (of course, redeem my reward point at 200 point/RM1). Too bad that Amex is not popular in malaysia.

Based on 200MR = RM1 the exact rebate should be 2.5% for petrol, supermarket and bookstore transaction (**selected). All other transactions will earn you 1% cash back.

Haha no worries, I think I just figured it out when you laid it out like that. Did look a lil weird when I just briefly glanced at the statement initally =p

Yea, I received the paper statement although I didn't opt for it (since they were saying they're gonna charge rm5). Till now no charges on it, but like you I'm worried they eventually do.

I haven't received neither paper nor email statement yet... but, i was not opt for paper statement in my application so they should not charge me for that
