I think on the spot he means not for vouchers but directly against a purchase. I've done this a few times recently at Harvey Norman, don't need vouchers just deduct from purchase immediately.

Parkson I never tried,only Harvey Norman

Just redeem on any item, in amounts of 50 - if balance top up by cash.

I doubt you can without FD.

Read through the rest of the thread... Others pledged min of 20k iirc. I doubt 10k will do it.

Just do it online and fill in someone else's Enrich account Nr.

I've done some online transactions which put me 10K+ over limit and went through fine.

No call / contact / interest charges from Maybank

I'm going in the next couple of days to redeem the remaining points I have for AEON vouchers also. Hopefully not too busy.
Is the on the spot redemption rate still unchanged (until May 1 at least)

Yeah it's become somewhat less attractive recently, Enrich miles are still not that bad if you book during promotion periods though.

If they drop long haul routes MAS isn't interesting for me at all anymore, or if they ditch their A380s too. Would rather use Emirates et al on those routes as an alternative.

At least BA flies to KL now too but they don't have A380

Time to look for a new card soon maybe.

I'm not sure ... I think the amount of miles for LHR > KUL is reasonable considering the costs on other airlines

I think if for September you should be fairly safe still.

What happens though if eg. you book Business class flight with miles and it gets cancelled? Normally if we pay full price we have protection through travel insurance from credit card - how does this apply if the majority of the value spent is in Enrich miles?

Ah I thought taxes are normally refundable even if miss the flight, not sure about cancellations. Anyway going a bit OT now

I'm going to see if there's any better cards for me to get now that this has become less attractive. At least made good use of it whilst it lasted

4D3N @ Anantara Phuket inc. flights for 2

Was a competition from last year, spend RM30K in a certain period

Yeah, $4M with Maybank is a bit much for a CC

I have the option of using my card to pay foreign invoices (DHL, FedEx UK mostly) so can put 50K per month through if I want to.

Problem is the exchange rates at the moment .. needs sufficient fluctuations to make it worthwhile so have abstained doing this for a while

Haven't really been keeping up with the changes here.

What would you recommend for redeeming Biz flights to Europe? I've been converting to Enrich in the past - is there better options (AsiaMiles?) I know about Kris but seems to be less availability when redeeming
