    NO MORE EZ-LINK!!!!
    Delink your EZ-LINK from Maybank cards at any transitlink office. Link up to Citi Premiermiles card!! That's a huge loss of miles!! From 10x points to 3x points!! **FAINT**

    Rewards Infinite is getting from bad to worse. I will not renew the membership in 2013!!

        Citi Premiermiles card: 3x points (transfer in any amount >500 miles) or UOB PRVI Miles Platinum American Express® Card: 4x points, but it will take you a long time to create that 10,000 miles block to transfer, unless you spend a lot.

          That stinks. So now it gives 1 treats point per 1$ meaning 0.4mls? Hmm, I don't have Premiermiles and UOB is out of the question. I guess paying for everything via EZlink is again a case by case decision. Well I sent feedback / complaint already to Maybank (not that I expect much out of it). I mean maybe reduce it to 5x treat's points or so, but fully removing it without even communicating is rubbish.

          Just for 5x treats points (2 KF mls) per 1$ spending abroad the card may not really be worth it I'm wondering as other cards will give you the same. Happy to hear the experts thoughts.

          BTW, unrelated to above. Citibank is really trying hard to switch Citibank Platinum Card members to the Rewards Infinite card. Given that I don't shop at most of the 10x rewards outlets they have signed up (other than department stores) and no extra earning for super markets I will stick to the Platinum card until they kill it.

            Yup, $1 spent = 0.4mile or S$2.50 = 1 mile. Usual 1x.

            Go get Citi Premiermiles or DBS Altitude VISA/AMEX, which is also 3x but transfer in blocks of 10,000 miles wef 01 July 2012.

            Must get used to it. Since 01 Jan 2011 been earning 10x points for EZ-link, now ended on 30 June 2012. 18 months.

              False alarm on the Maybank Horizon card.

              EZ-link is still in the list for 10x tr'eats points (or 4 miles per $).

                I called them this morning. Call centre put me on hold - in the end, she said she would check the relevant department. She called me this afternoon saying that Ezlink top up will be extended till 31 Dec.

                Website is just updated. Ezlink top up is still there and this is up to 31 Dec.

                  I think the website was updated after 4pm or 5pm on 02 July 2012. Just called Maybank, the agent at first say EZ-LINK does not award 10x points anymore. I told her website say extend to 31/12/12. After that she go and check, say still award 10x, just made the changes today. DAMN!!! I just delinked my EZ-Link cards on 01 July. Now need to wait 5 days to relink it back to Maybank! In Jan 2013, I will wait till the official list in the website!!

                  Maybe 1 of the Maybank staff read this forum and changed their mind. I called the hotline 3 times on 01 July 2012 to confirm. All 3 said no more!!
