QUOTE(tishaban @ Jan 7 2016, 01:26 PM) How much are we talking about? I have only been with Maybank, Citi and Hong Leong. So far have not had any issues with my credit limit with Maybank, but I don't go anywhere close to the limit with them too. Citi is second highest, Hong Leong is the lowest.  Started out at about RM25k limit with Maybank when I first started working and never came close to using even 25% of that haha. my Mbb is 50k limit. Citi is higherst, x3 higher than Mbb. and they keep auto increase my limit from time to time until one day i stop them cause i don't need that much. QUOTE(galaxynote259 @ Jan 7 2016, 02:18 PM) I have worked as a credit card cs before and everytime I get customer with this request I will sweat kao kao..if can u don't even have to tell them how good your history is, it doesn't benefit them for rejecting you at first. as a ex-cs , mind to enlighten us what should we do to get approval? any tips? wondering why a good payment history doesn't help ?

Is that worth to swipe RM 30,000 and pay 2% (RM 600) charge to get 60,000 treat points (Visa Infinite) to get roughly 13,000 miles?
You choose to pay by cash without any charge or by credit card and pay RM 600 charge?

You choose to pay by cash without any charge or by credit card and pay RM 600 charge? Visa charge should be less than 2%. As to whether it's worth it or not, that depends on what you're intending to use them for and also which program you are redeeming the TPs to.

If I already have say 90k miles somewhere and the extra 13k would mean the difference between flying economy vs. premium economy then I would pay the RM600.

Wondering if should buy separate insurance in case You need to read the insurance policy to see what it covers. Mbb insurance is provided by etiqa, i remember the flight delay is min 6 hr, luggage 48 hr. (You better double check the policy) Citi bank premier miles card has the most comprehensive travel insurance, flight delay = 4 hr, and they cover alot of things that Maybank travel insurance don't cover.

For the mbb insurance. Flight delay from home ground would not covered as well

Business, PE or economy? If you have dates set and there's availability and you're just short of 13k miles I would say go for it, especially if it's for business or PE class. What FFP? What route?

Currently I am just having 50k miles. I plan to go to London, Melbourne or Korea in the future but not sure when yet. Will go for the Singapore Airlines business class. If you were me, would you pay 2% charge (RM 600) just for the 13k miles? Burn money or save money? haha

But don't get caught on the redemption availability. Airmiles is a game, and if you don't do a lot of redeeming, you might well lose. House wins most of the time, but you better your odds if you count the cards.

Burn money or save money? haha London is 68k KF miles + ~RM1k fees one way in J. The fees are much more expensive flying out of London in business compared to flying in. So all in around RM1k (fees) + RM600 (2%) + RM2k = RM3.6-4k for a return flight to London, one way in business. If I had to do it I would spend the RM600.
