How to Get Your Petrol Rebate!

Do you own a car with up to 2,000 CC engine? Or a pick-up truck or jeep with up to 2,500 CC engine? How about motorcycle with up to 250 CC engine?

If you answer yes to the above, you are entitled to a rebate amounted to RM625 for the 4 wheelers while RM150 for 2 wheelers. Provided of course your vehicle are powered by either diesel or petrol.

For those owners like me who recently renew you vehicle's road tax (between 1 April 2008 to 31 May 2008), you are entitled to claim the rebates from the post office near you from this Saturday onwards.

If you are just as lost as I am on how to go about doing it, well, I just received an e-mail from my colleague on how to go about doing it. Basically, you (as in the vehicle owner) need to bring along your original MyKad / Army Card / Police Card and fill up a form in the post office. Once you submitted your form and your identification card to the counter, they will scan your fingerprint for verification. Once it is confirmed that you are you, you will receive your cash rebate.

It sounded simple right? As a precautionary measure, please bring your original car registration card and/or insurance documents proving you own that vehicle.

You may never know you are so "fortunate" to be told the online system is down and you have to come back another day. This is of course not a guarantee but at least you can try to argue your case at the counter and hopefully you get paid.

Otherwise, well, this is still Bolehland.

Dear

seaqueen: apparently they will link up to RTD database and we will get it in 3 mins. Well, I presume 3 mins is when you are at the counter and the counter staff is serving you with no excessive logins into the RTD database. you know the rest la...

zewt: the only other option is actually to fill in the form and let them mail the money order to you. as for me, i will be lining up tomorrow first thing in the morning.
