Anyone has experience applying for Ambank card but working overseas? I am currently based overseas but travel back to Malaysia quite often, so spending a lot of time at airport and would love to utilise the lounge.

Another thing, when they mention RM120k p.a , this refers to gross salary before deductions for EPF and etc in Malaysia am i correct?

Thanks!

If your address is local, and your income in myr, I don't see a problem...

Gross salary...

Was using AmBank Web Chat to ask if there any extension on the Lounge Access for Premium Cardmembers.
I was told it has become permanent feature and no expiry date for the said promo.  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif

That's good to know....till their next revision of conditions....lol.., maybank already shown how to curtail benefits...

I doubt if there is much issue with overseas airports...but I worry about domestic airport abuse, especially at land side outlets at klia2...

Of course there will be an expiry date  biggrin.gif

it was a promotion, thus a finite time frame....but looks like they have decided to make it a standard feature now....

nothing "unlimited" can ever be unlimited, so it's a matter of time before the rules change....let's see how long....

but while it lasts, enjoy the perks folks.....lol

OK, ic...

then I have a question:

can i use an ambank VI/WMC to enter more than 1 PP in a single day?

say, in KLIA2 there are 4 PP.
can i use the same cc to enter GM and Wellness spa on the same day?

anyone tried?
*
Yes. Used at gm before check in and then wellness before flight....

if like that, then can use at GM after landing, and then Gateway PPL before go home...

Theoretically yes...but I would think most people will be rushing to get home on arrival...lol

Hi guys, is the PPL access will be permanent?
I am thinking to apply Ambank world mastercard, but i rememebr it will end by end of Dec 2016.

also, is sub card also entitle for the PPL access for free as well?

thanks.

ppl access will be permanent....

the current concession is unlimited access without condition....till end of this year....it appears this has been extended, no new end date has been given....prior to this, you need to swipe 3 times overseas before/after entry...

it is doubtful if the concession will be permanent....they will either revert to previous conditions, or impose a limit on number of entries....

the access is available to all supplementary cards as well....

There was a problem with the mailing of PIN....never received mine after 3 weeks....so they activated the cards on the phone and send the PIN as an SMS to the registered phone on the application form....

did they email back saying the status is approved.. or just they mail it to you then only you know it is approved when you receive via mailbox.. tempting to apply since its free for life right?
*
the first email is just an acknowledgement of application...they don't further communicate with you if approved, they just send the cards to you....

never wise for them to be "subjectively" selective in how they give out perks...even if i am not in kv....doesn't mean i don't visit and don't want to use the b1f1...

Is this definite new information, or just assumption in the absence of new update by Ambank?

For GM and PPL entry on land side at KLIA2, boarding pass is not required to be shown.
*
At least for Ambank cards, their t n c clearly says you need a valid boarding pass....

That is never an issue in airside lounges, as nobody can be at the airside without a valid boarding pass due to airport security...

But klia 2 is unique with 2 landside outlets....And it appears they are not complying with the rules, depending on the staffs on duty....

I would prefer them been strict to stop abuses in the hope that banks will continue to provide such perks....Too much abuses, and they may curtail or remove access...

Exactly....And by their selfish actions, may cause the banks to cancel or curtailed access....

Just like abuses of car insurance claims increase the premiums, penalising those who are honest....

How about bank shall enforce PPL to scan Boarding Pass? No Boarding Pass then no Claim from PPL?

Ambank already had the condition....If ppl don't comply with the rule, they may just withdraw privilege
