yes... i want to take advantage of the double point promotion. but so far.. only Shell stations accept AMEX right? Petronas no longer accept...

Cool! What about Mobil or Esso? are they accept AMEX? i always book ticket on malaysiaairlines.com but too bad they dont accept AMEX

Amex currently offering RM2.80 = 1 Frequent Flyer Mile!!! very good deal man!!!! i want to earn more points

not many AMEX card holders here?

For me, i m a frequent traveller... so i prefer to earn fast points.. Amex is offering RM2.80 per frequent flyer's mile where other credit cards you need to spend RM5.80 in order to get 1 mile. thats a lot different...
but yeah, Amex card is more for business man cos we have to make the full payment each month.

Thanks for the info next time will fill up petrol with Esso or Shell only lol...

most of the time i use Petronas but since they dont accept AMEX... i will use Shell next time.. its help me to earn points faster!

you are right...currently AMEX gives you RM1 = 3 MR points (if you take the turbo point program) which is RM1.80 per frequent mile... Thats really the best offer in the town now!! this promotion end late of jan.2008... i want to find a ways to earn more points during these periods. hahah..

haha.. why should i angry? i m not working for AMEX or Maybank anyway.. i will be great if AMEX get more card holders, so more merchants will consider to accept the card. haha

Do you guys know that actually AMEX doesnt have its own credit card in Malaysia? Those AMEX cards with issued by maybank & hong keong are actually co-branded credit cards, its not 100% percent from AMEX. Try to browse other countries AMEX's web sites like singapore, HK, Australia.. they all have their own AMEX issue credit cards avaiable.

b00n:

Are you AMEX card holder as well? Does Malaysian's Amex charge card same as other amex cards that issued in other countries or not?

i heard AMEX actually charge merchants 5% of the total amount charge..where VISA and Mastercard only 2% to 3%.. is that true?

Seperate charge are usually happen in travel agency when you want to pay by your cards... if believe there is no extra charge if buy direct from the airlines company right?

Maybe not in Malaysia but other countries such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia.. AMEX card very accepted mostly every merchants.

@Gen-X:

Yes, if those merchants doesnt accept AMEX, we still have VISA or Mastercard for backup. lol

2x Reward Points are great! its equal to RM2.80 per mile.. where other credit cards you need to spend between RM5.40 to RM6.00 in order to get one mile.

Gen-X, did you enrolled in the Turbo Points Program?

Gen-X;

If you enrolled in the Turbo Point Program, you will earn 1 MR point extra, thats mean RM1.00 spend = 3x reward point that is sweet isnt it? lol..this promotion will end in 31 January 2008.

Yeah, i just saw the Ads from The Star too, not familiar with Flexi Pay Plan... but its pretty good deal if you intend to purchase something more than RM1000 in single receipt... the sweetest part is 2x reward points. lol

you are AMEX member since 2002, do you find any different after Maybank manage it?

Recently i purchased something from US web site, surprisingly the conversion rate are cheaper than what am expected. highly recommended to use AMEX card
