Thanks for the information regarding free upgrade to Hilton Hhonors Gold. rclxms.gif

Anyone has information regarding FREE upgrade to Starwood SPG Gold using our Amex Reserve? (its a platinum right?) I'm trying to get Gold for next year's travel plans with my family around USA.

Thanks.

Yes, if you're a US Amex Platinum charge card member you get SPG Gold automatically. Have had SPG Gold for several years already, best benefit is the 4pm late checkout!

I have not heard of the same SPG Gold for the Amex Reserve though, it seems to be at the same level as the Amex Platinum credit card which itself is a notch or two below the Amex Platinum charge card.

Oh, so its only for US issued Amex card? Maybank Premier 2 Amex Reserve dont qualify?

One or two notch below Platinum?   hmm.gif

Anyway, I will try my luck after i get hold of my cards. Tishaban, did you get SPG gold through Amex Platinum or stays? My target is 250 nights for Life Gold.

Zeronuker may wanna try your luck first since you're going to Bali Westin? Give Amex conceirge a call..  biggrin.gif

Yeah, I guess I'll try before I go Bali.

QUOTE(tishaban @ Jul 12 2015, 08:46 PM)
I only know based on what I read on Maybank's site and Maybank Premiere cards don't list SPG Gold as a benefit. You can try call Maybank to ask.

They didn't list Hilton Hhonors Gold as a benefit for VI, so no harm trying luck imo.. biggrin.gif

I got the Hilton Hhonors Gold via Visa Infinite. Just gave them a call, gave a few details and got the cards a few weeks later. Now I misplaced them... again. But Definately worth it in my opinion.



Btw, has anybody tried using Starwood Dining Privelege for Ramadhan Buffet at Latest Recipe Le Meridien? Does the discounts still apply for the Ramadhan Buffet. Wife dont feel like eating Prime.

30% off RM173 which was an insane price to begin with biggrin.gif

Much more palatable at RM121, is there a limit? Am thinking of taking the office group there biggrin.gif

Not sure about limits. I just asked any promo for Visa Infinite or Amex Reserve and the lady said 30% off for VI.

RM173 is not bad actually but I'm biased to Le Meridien KL. Special place for me and my wife.

Hello All!

I got a question regarding installment plans on Premier Cards.

How is the point accumutaled if say purchase RM20k with 12 months installments? Get the points on the swipe or spread out in 12months. Or another way?

Is it true that if opt to pay via installments, the total amount if blocked on the card. Example: Purchase RM20k with RM30k limit. After swipe, left with RM10k limit until finish paying installments?

I'm planning to buy some items and the merchant offers installments payments. I have cash to pay for the credit card swipe up front but rather spread it. Is this a Wise move?

0% installment btw

Hey guys, I just got via snail mail 5 times entry per card(VI) into PPL effective 1st August 2015.

I didn't apply for any or are they just being nice because of my high spending? Cleared my CL several times in the last 3 months... flex.gif

Hello!

How to check card spending and annivesary date? Can just call CS?

I want to know when I got the card and how much I've spent on it... Would be great to get a simplified copy of all transactions done on these cards. Not the statement by the month but by the year if possible.

Hi Sifu, I tried to call Maybank CS at the back of card to sign up for Hilton Hhonor Gold Complimentary program. I am told the visa infinite is not eligible for such privileges. Strange i have seen member from previous post mention they are able to register successfully. Anyone manage to confirm on this?

QUOTE(tishaban @ Aug 18 2015, 03:45 PM)
Yes I did this, google up the details. It's a Visa program, not a Maybank program and I called Visa to get it done. Takes several weeks though.
*
Agree. Call Visa Infinite, not Maybank CS.

Just to share with you all, I called Premier CS at 12pm today to increase credit limit to RM60K (CL was at RM30K). At 4pm, checked MB2U and saw was already at RM60K! rclxms.gif

No docs, No FD, just called and asked.
