We are limited by the Frequent Flyer Program (FFP) that the cc partner with... not because we are Malaysian

For other FFP you need to sign up for that cc...like StanChart T1, CIMB...

I understand that. But if you see most of our cards, they mostly partner with these 3 loyalty points. Is there a way for us to use our bank points to book for Etihad, Qatar, Emirates, etc using these loyalty points.

Real bummer. I guess most of us are asking the same question. Which is the next best thing out there?
For the time being, I guess Singapore Airlines Krisflyer Amex is better right since its RM 2.5 for 1KF?
Also for overseas transaction, better to use Visa Infinate cos of the better rate and charges. I believe MBB charges 2.25% on Visa and 2.5% on Amex and both give 5x for overseas transactions.

Would this be right?

Also if you are into Enrich, then wont the Maybank Mastercard World be better for local spending? It works out to RM 3.2/Enrich instead of RM 3.5 for AR or VI.

Anyone knows what is the best air miles earning card for local spending now?
Now that I'm getting the UOB prvi miles elite for overseas expenses, thinking if I should dump the M2R. Alliance VI looks nice with the evergreen points, but only tied to MAS is a big no...

But this is only for Enrich right?

Waited over an hour to redeem my points. They really shortchanged all their customers. Taking it for granted. With any business, the only way to teach them a lesson is stop doing business with them till they get off their high horse and realise they are not all that mighty.

So just to understand, the UOB card works great if it's overseas spending right? And can only convert to Enrich and not Krisflyer?
Any other cards to consider for Krisflyer?

Unfortunately, it is the other way around now. All banks are devaluing their points, or they will set a cap on the points earned.

Hello Fruitie,

So reading the post, it seems UOB PRVi Elite miles is the best card right now for overseas transactions which works out to RM0.9 per mile.
Which in your opinion gives the best value right now for local spending? What is their conversion rate?
Thank you.

They have made us like dogs fighting for a bone. The only way to punish a business is to hit their bottom line. After conversion, I will switch.
