@epalbee3,
It's a good habit; like i said the rule is to make sure you have enough cash to purchase whatever you want before swiping that CC.

I've lived by that rule my entire life and thus far have no issues with paying up my CC bills.

@rockefeller,
So how many miles do I need wor?! I'm not too familiar with all these airline miles - I ain't as widely travelled as U people. Gee.... and I just used up like 625,000 MR points on the Tag Heuer - should have kept the points for this option! *siGh*

to fly to ny on singapore airlines, you'd need around 70000 krisflyer miles which is 392,000 MR points.

tgeoklin, you cancelled it? i was told very few people in the country has this card. even those with personal FD at cimb of RM 5m gets turned down by the management when they requested for it! you assets with must be running in the eight figures then! smile.gif

Actually its just not enough that you have $ with them. You also need to have a track record for high spending, plus the most important thing is, their Senior Management need to know you.

Fyi, there are actually lots of people with FDs over a few million, but not all of them are active user of CCs. In fact I have an uncle with over RM10M in FDs but his CL with the bank concern is only a puny RM100K tongue.gif

Tinkerbel , i think you missed the Tag Heuer sale in last december which they give up to 70% discount on their watches, which i assume much more cheaper than that 625k MR you traded for it tongue.gif

Go to your account holding branch and request to be a Premier customer. Account upgrade can be done instantly. Next you'll be asked to fill out the Premier Mastercard application form. The Premier Mastercard is valid as long as you maintain your Premier status in any HSBC Group worldwide.
