Quick update on the TPs I received for my piano purchase discussed a few posts above.

Just checked my Amex Reserve TPs and they have jumped up by 150k (i.e. the RM30k x 5!!!).

I had already assumed that I would only be getting 1x TP, as I thought it was an EzyPay transaction. However, it appears that perhaps it wasn't? To clarify, the merchant swiped my CC on the terminal, and then chose the option 36 month plan. As mentioned previously, my CL reflects the RM30k, but there are no charges reflected yet.

In short, I'm not sure how I managed to get 5x TP while still benefitting from 0% 36m instalment plan. Just hoping it isn't a mistake!

Last time I purchased MacBook Pro from epicentre with 0% 12months instalment and I also get the 5x tp. It has been two months ago and the points still inside my account. Only the subsequent monthly instalment get 0tp.

Just redeem all tp half to Asia miles and half to KrisFlyer. Surprisingly 1u card centre staff say can redeem all the points include m2platinum with the rate of 4500tp=1000. Also the staff say tnb autopay is 5x tp.

How do you purchase grab points?

How about the Grab in Malaysia? Reload GrabPay with AR, spend with GP and earn points. 1400 points = 160 KF. Worth for it?
*
Redeem 700grabpoints to 160krisflyer miles yesterday and today already in. If you redeem in Malaysia, the rate is 1400points and not worth. But you can change your location to anywhere in Singapore in the ride booking, then click the promo tab. So, you can browse all the rewards exclusive for singapore, 700to160KF as well.

Changing location doesn't allow Grab user to perform travertine other than hailing ride in that country. Even though you were a regular user there. I've tried it last time.

I’m changing location in Malaysia and redeem the promo.

Any limit how much we can purchase,?10k grab point only?

Redeem to KrisFlyer is no limit but the 700GP to 160KF is only until 30June. You have to wait the first redeem clear before redeem it again.

I think this 700 = 160KF is not a promo, it has been there just like our 1400 = 160KF.

It is a limited time promo. You can see my uploaded screenshot above is only until 30june not like 1400to160 until next year. I wish I can redeem 4000KF by end of this month.

Too bad, I am still facing with the issue. What did you do to trigger it?

Try move the pin to anywhere in Singapore.

Currently, I don’t have “Maybank 2 Cards Premier” yet. If these cards are good, I will apply them.

Also, both my wife & me can qualify for the same cards. Accumulation by 2 persons are faster, so each of us can cover 1 child as well.

BYW, what FFP stands for?

Tried it works. Didn't need to use VPN.
1. Go to Car to book a ride.
2. Scroll map to Singapore. Book a ride from say, Orchard to Changi.
2. Click the middle "Promo" button.
4. Click Browse All Rewards. Bottom Browse All Rewards again.
5. Click Travel.
6. At the bottom there's the KF redemption for 700 points.

But is it worth it?
If you take 1 KF mile = RM0.04, 160 miles = RM6.40
If you take 1 GrabPoint = RM0.009, 700 GrabPoints  = RM6.30

About the same thing, and even if it's more, 160 miles is quite a relatively insignificant amount accruing to your FFP
*
So, I wish I got enough time to transfer 25times into KF. Using grabpay now is 5.57mpd. I think is worth because I have a lot of points expiry this month.

And regarding the Amex express  auto pay, since lots of us keep asking the CS, now they update the page and clearly state that utilities only 1point and government 0 point, so ya unless you want the bank charge u immediately once the bill due, otherwise make no diff to enrol
*
After saw this , I go check 1tp only. I have email them about this and say want to terminate autobill immediately. Btw, I found that they double charge my tnb bill.

Because their website no mention Amex KrisFlyer no miles given for e-wallet topup and I just apply this card this week. After received statement today and saw this, I’m thinking want activated it or not. Btw, this card is still good for paying education fees.

When will the SIA AMEX gold card miles appear in my KF account after statement date? Or I need to convert manually?

Yes, I noticed other customers who walked in, they were also offered a Lindy. The difference between myself and what they got was the colours. They were offered black and grey. While I got a Rose Azalea which was more sought after. My SA whispered to me that those common colours are for available anytime but not the one he got me. True enough, the other customers saw mine and wanted it too but was rejected.

As for ratio, 1:1 is about right even for the branch I went at Rue De Sevres. Spending in Paris is better than KL, is definitely about the 5 times TP we get and more choices. Let's get back to our M2P topics now shall we? Haha
*
Don’t think that need to spend 70k++ just to get a Lindy. Only b/k need to buy other stuffs to get it. Rose azalee Lindy in 26 is only 34200 on their online store and you can get 5x TP too.
