I am now using KF amex platinum, and MUVI, cancelled the m2p.

The KF card automatic conversion, no need play the hunger games. Where cannot use amex then use visa, groceries still rm2=1 mile.

Free 1 year, then maybe cancel.

The good thing with the KF cards is it auto converts immediately after each swipe so you don’t get that BS MBB accumulation crap.
The bad thing is you could no longer extend your points life by dragging it to 3 years before conversion then another 3 years lifespan as airmiles effective making it 6 years.

How frequent do you redeem KF flights? Not every 3 years right? So the 3 year validity that everyone is scare off shouldn't apply

I try to redeem my points right before expiry to prolong my miles. That way I have 6 years for 1 big amount of miles. With KF card auto conversion, you basically get only 3 years for each transaction, such a pain during expiry when there are miles expiring almost every day.

Slow accumulators may have problem getting enough miles to make worthwhile redemption, and want more time to reach "worthwhile" redemptions (which in value terms means business class).

But with the rapid devaluation by both banks and airlines, it's best to use the miles ASAP, before they lose their value.

Yeah this has been my strategy ever since I play the miles game. Business class redemption maybe valuable to many but for me getting whole family of 4 to fly together every year even though economy seat is consider value add for me. So I won't wait until I accumulate a lot. I simply redeem all then see again the following year - how much is left just redeem within that total...

I'm clocking about 40K enrich miles a month with HLB Visa Infinite. RM3.50 to 1 Enrich Miles for local spending.

Have around 600K TP with Maybank and tried to covert it last night after 12am. Nope, didn't get thru. System sucks!

You redeem enrich?

KF

what will be the best card to redeem enrich points now without having to go through hunger games every start of the month?

thanks

Well I do slow redemption to maximise my value in getting Business class for my whole family. I did 4 business class to Aus 2 years ago, and I have enough now for another 4 business class as well. All this is possible with slow redemption, but it is much harder now with the monthly accumulation limit & devaluation.
Using the KF Amex or HLB route that instantly convert transactions to air miles will definitely make it impossible for me to play the slow game.

Maybe Ambank Enrich card…

so far i see is the amex krisflyer

but it comes w annual fee

Depends on which airline you want to collect miles.

If SQ, use KF amex platinum, need pay some AF (no chance to waive) but if your spendings large enough, still worth it.

If MH use ambank enrich. Can waive based on spendings.

anyone has any idea why MBB have not credited KF miles for their MBB KF card? my statement already sent to me 2-3 days ago and it's still not reflected on SIA's website. Last month was pretty much before my statement was even sent to me, this month is no where to be seen. Hmmm

Hi all Sifus, I need to pay 20k for solar panel installation for my house. I found out they accpet Amex.
Hence, i would like to ask for Amex Krisflyer platinum card, do i get KF miles if i decide to pay this 20k with installment?

Thanks in advance.

May I know which solar panel company accept amex payment?

We see using verdant solar. They are using Payex as their payment channel.

very tempted to move to kf card to avoid hunger games

only thing holding me back is the auto debits that i need to contact with other vendors again.. very lazy to do that zzz

My statement is on 8th and the KF credit on the same date into my account without fail every month
