I guess I am one of them who got the upgrade. I am still contemplating if I should make the move. I have no use of the points in my platinum now as the points are collected way faster through my AMEX Gold CC so wondering if I should just for the sake of getting a VS.....opinions? I do travel quite abit due to my work nature and the non expiry miles sound like a good deal. Getting a free trip every other decade sounds pretty cool.

Was hoping to keep it as a second card but they told me I would have to cancel my platinum one. Hmmmm......I don't even know why I was given a Platinum in the first place when my salary is not there yet. LOL. I thought the minimum amount for both the platinum and premier miles are the same?

I know what you mean. Have been thinking hard on it. I have never used my points to change for anything and as said, the Amex gold cc collects point alot faster since I only use the card for petrol. As for the visa, I use them to pay my insurance premiums ( 10k++ per year ) and for times that I can't use my Amex, visa would be my second choice. I have frequent flyer miles with SIA and Rm3 to 1 Airmile to 1 Krisflyer points seem pretty good of a deal compared to other cards ( I know Amex has a krisflyer amex card which is Rm2 to 1 krisflyer mile but the insurance coverage is half of what the PremierMiles offer ).

I'm not pro in this but I tend to stick with citibank for the convenience and all. I have had nightmares with CIMB, HSBC and UOB so I'm staying away from them now......
