Redemption online with kf still gets 15% miles discount?...

Problem with kf is I need to start journey in msia, not sin....still two minds about where to direct my points....

And yes, I hate to have to call cc....rather do everything online....

Or just nip over to johor baru to a branch lah... actually, if you have a maybank cc, it's better to have an account and maybank2u access as well...

can appeal...your income in myr terms enough?....

i think people like you with special circumstances, best to apply in person and talk to a human....online applications are programmed to reject any factors outside narrow parameters....

i find mods here tend to be overzealous in their opinions and actions...

the conversion into ffp of points accrued through these cards, the decision of which ffp to use, and by extension, the relative merits of the 3 programmes this cards can convert into, are all relevant...

like any matter, many topics cross boundaries, it is almost impossible to silo off topics...the ff thread does not deal with cards, but with how to redeem miles for flights...would then if we discuss cards and which ffp we convert into, be considered "out of topic" in that thread?...

agree with raist....some common sense please...

only 1 return j redemption...enrich for japan is now 110k miles return...no discount online...

ba has little presence in this region, so redemptions will have to be on partner airlines....how is it done?....can do online, or need to call ba....?

on the other hand, enrich redemption to japan requires minimal cash upfront, whereas kf jq is crazy....

still undecided whether to take advantage of the 10% bonus miles...

i know uber charges in myr but processing was done overseas, and i was given 5 points....

i also just booked an airbnb...lets see when the statement comes....

dctravels just did it.....japan is unusual for enrich due to the lack of jq charges....the same does not apply to other routes, so in most instances, kf is going to come out better....

but their long haul is no better than the others....

No more online conversion since they took down the treats point website...Have to call the CS....Not possible in m2u....

The old online conversion allows you to convert your points to other people's enrich account....Now cannot...

Unless one is pretty sure one can spend 80k a year, i would not advice this card...may be simpler to just take the stand alone infinite..."only" need to spend 50K....

No such thing for maybank....

1. spendings on amex also gets 5 treatpoints locally, compared to 2 points with visa (excluding the 1 point and zero point categories)

2. They are separate cards, and you cannot change from one to the other....will need to formally cancel one and apply for the other...card numbers will change....however any treatpoints can be ported over....

When they started, you need rm180k to qualify, or rm75k FD.....

A lot 'cheaper' now...

yes, it's locked until you terminate your card....i asked, now requirement only 120k, my wife can qualify without the fd, can take out?....also cannot....in any case, will cut it in a year's time, next renewal, as will not have such high spendings anymore....

Original application income was just short of requirement by only 10%....with present 'peasantisation' of the card, way above...they already know, why need people to prove again?...

Never mind, one more year only lah...

30k?...why I was asked to put 75k?

I believe she said must put FD equivalent to the cl....

I needed a high cl for big item spendings at that time...
