Can't transfer to my FFP as there is no Malaysian credit card/charge card that allows points conversion to Lufthansa German Airlines Miles & More frequent flyer program. I always redeem for Jaya Jusco shopping vouchers.

Actually i use Lufthsansa German Airlines Miles & More FFP to earn miles when flying on Singapore Airlines and Thai Airways. Using their FFP doesn't necessary mean i fly with them often. Just that i prefer Miles & More over Krisflyer and Royal Orchid Plus.

No catch and it's on until July.

You have to send a SMS to be eligible for the contest but the contest is over now.

I was using Maybank branded AMEX Gold credit card prior. I redeemed all my TP before i switched to AMEX Personal Charge Card in January and TP does offer Jusco Jaya vouchers. MR had Jaya Jusco RM100 voucher too last year but not anymore.

Yeah. No more Jaya Jusco. Parkson is so expensive ... They have some nice collections in Parkson Pavillion but Parkson simply is too expensive. Nothing much you can buy with a few hundred Ringgit


No. Not at all. 6000 points for 500 miles is simply too expensive.

Depends on the hotel category. Usually St. Regis and Westin are quite high, both which are Starwood properties, along with Sheraton, Le Meridien and a few more.

For those who's interested, W Hotel is also a Starwood property and the points need for redemption is also usually quite high.

W Hotel is indeed something that set them apart from the rest. There is one W Hotel in Hong Kong. W Hotel will make its debut in Bangkok later this year or next year (i don't remember).

Is it AMEX Gold Charge Card ? You don't have to pay RM25/RM50 to earn MR if it is a Gold Charge Card.

Then you don't have to pay RM25 or RM50 every year to earn MR points.

You can get your Green Charge Card and Gold Charge Card waived. It won't be a problem as there are users here managed to do it.

You better call right now

So long you are carrying one VISA and one Mastercard you don't have to worry anything

I have been waiting for them to launch this card in Malaysia since like forever !!!!!!!!


MR is better actually. Less points needed to redeem shopping vouchers

I guess this perks is reserved only for the Gold credit card for now. Guess it will soon be extended to the Platinum credit card otherwise it will make the Platinum credit card look bad. The good thing about AMEX Gold credit card is that it is free for life strictly with no T&C attached


Definitely. I am holding a Personal charge card now. The thing is that i am afraid the credit line given to the Gold credit card might be not enough. I once swiped RM12000 at one go to my Green Personal Charge Card with no problem as it has no preset spending limit.

And i am wondering if we can apply for this AMEX Gold Credit Card using other credit card ?

By the way, please note that they won't be sending out a printed statement for this particular credit card. But should you still want to receive the printed statement, you will have to pay RM5/month.


This new credit card is now on AMEX MALAYSIA


LOL ! A newborn baby that many people still don't know its existence yet. Anyway, this card wasn't on AMEX Malaysia website last night.

Apparently they did. May be they haven't briefed their staff or sent out a memo regarding this new AMEX Gold credit card.

You don't have to worry for Maybank All this 2xMR/TP is made possible with AMEX charging their merchants a higher merchant fee compared to VISA/Mastercard. In the US, the AMEX credit card issued by Bank of America is giving 1.25% cash back. For certain cash back credit cards issue by American Express US itself, the cash back is 1.5%. So giving us 2xMR/TP for every Ringgit swiped is a peanut for Maybank/AMEX Malaysia.

Guys, the AMEX Gold credit card issued by American Express is now up on American Express Malaysia website - AMERICAN EXPRESS GOLD CREDIT CARD
