Can someone help me...

just needed some clarification. after reading all the posts and the blog by Gen-x, i decided to opt for Alliance Bank Platinum CC to gain access to the KLIA Premier lounge.

However when i went to make my application, i was told that only the first 100 new platinum credit card subscribers (first time applying for CC with Alliance Bank) of the month would be entitled this benefit??

Apart from that, i also read this off their website.

http://www.alliancebank.com.my/abmb_busine...ccard_more.html

Platinum-style privileges
24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year of Platinum-styled dedicated Customer Service
High credit limit
Air Miles via Enrich Rewards Program (with Malaysia Airlines)
2x Timeless Bonus Points on overseas spend
Complimentary entry at the KLIA Plaza Premium Airport Lounge (valid for 1st 150 Platinum Cardmembers per month, subsequent Cardmembers will receive 50% discount on entry charges and all guest(s) of Cardmembers will receive 25% discount on entry charges)
24-hour concierge services provided by VISA International and MasterCard Worldwide
Passport to Global Platinum Privileges from VISA International and MasterCard Worldwide

its also written there valid for 1st 150 platinum cardmembers per month?

could someone clarify if it is really unlimited free access using the Alliance Bank Platinum CC? (or perhaps if the website info is wrong?)

Many thanks

It is indeed LIMITED access. Who said unlimited?
If you really want it so badly, get SCB Platinum instead. This one confirm unlimited free access.

This post mentioned it was unlimited... See below - very first post on this thread:

Alliance Plat - UNLIMITED access to Plaza Premium Lounge KLIA only

Airport Lounge Access

First compiled by David83 in CC Thread V11 and Updated by MilesAndMore in CC Thread V12

KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge Only

1. Alliance Plat - UNLIMITED access to Plaza Premium Lounge KLIA only.
2. Citibank Plat - Free access to Plaza Premium Lounge KLIA with a limit of 12 times a year
3. SCB Platinum - UNLIMITED entries to Plaza Premium Lounge KLIA for principal ONLY
However, the officer I spoke with at Alliance Bank did say it was unlimited access, however it was only valid for the first 100 platinum cc subscribers for the month (must be first time subscribing a CC from Alliance Bank) - and these ppl will enjoy unlimited access to the lounge as many times as they want. How would they monitor the card, i wouldnt know. its not like it will be printed on the card that "hey, this person is eligible for the lounge"... even the officer was unsure of this (after calling countless support personnel...) i think at the end, she was confused herself...

The website however, stated something much different, only the first 150 platinum cc card members from alliance bank would get the free entry, following by 50% and 25%... so... very contradicting points... ><

Hi there guys and Gen-X,

As a response to Erry's post - as well as the unsure-ness of everyone regarding Alliance Bank Platinum Credit Card - I can 100% confirm YES you can enter the KLIA Premium Lounge UNLIMITED times.

I just went there last Wednesday. Its totally free with my Alliance Bank Platinum Credit Card (NOT DEBIT). And i also asked them how many times I can enter - and they said unlimited.

Please do not call the Alliance Bank Helpline - it is totally USELESS - in fact, they themselves are confused and unsure of their own policies. If you do want confirmation, give a call to KLIA Premium Lounge - they would know better since they are the ones who are accepting the cards!

Best regards
