Slightly out of topic.

Apparently Maybank World Mastercard (conventional) annual requirement has just been revised from 120k to 100k, in line with the annual requirement of Maybank Islamic World Mastercard Ikhwan (islamic).
In addition, first year 800 annual fee will also be waived (previously 1k non-waivable on first year), with subsequently year waivable with 80k min spend (previously waivable with 120k min spend).
In terms of Lounge benefit I believe it is same as per Maybank VI/MU VI.
The main difference is this card earns *Evergreen* Treats Airmiles (AM) instead of 3 years validity Treats Point (TP). Whereas Maybank VI gets 2 TP for every RM1 spent, Maybank WMC gets 5 AM for every RM2 spent.
To further illustrate
Maybank VI | free 10000 TP upon first spend | Rm1 for 2 TP | 4500 TP for 1000 EM | TP valid for 3 years | Equivalent to Rm2250 for 1000 EM
Maybank WMC | free 50000 AM upon approval | Rm1 for 2.5 AM | 6000 TP for 1000 EM | AM no expiry | Equivalent to Rm2400 for 1000 EM
Do you all think MBB WMC is a better alternative compared to MBB VI for faster Enrich Miles accumulation, with MBB WMC getting free 50000 AM (8333 EM) to begin with? (Leaving MU VI 5x TP aside as it is non-guaranteed)
Thx for the info... Time to add on another card..
