The purpose of this restriction is obviously to induce customers to use the cards....in which case, it would have been easier to just say, at the end on each card cycle year, total spending and use of lounges will be calculated, and every entry will be free if there is rm500 spend....so someone spending 5k can enter 10 times free....excess entries will then be charged...

But still, depend level of the cards

Even spending 5k in VS or Platinum, still x5 times for VS & 2 times for Platinum to be entry Plaza Premium Lounge

Hello everyone,

I noticed that my B1F1 deal had been shrinking to jz one or two deals only.
Do we need to renew the app annually?

Thanks.

That is not inconsistent with the policy....you are entitled the number of entries as per your card, subject to annual spending...so 1k for platinum and 2.5k for Vs, to have the entries waived...

Also easier for cardholders, no need to have to remember when lounge was used and remembering to use the card within a month....

Seen the same question been posted again and again.
Just to repost #2410

You can spend RM500 in the multiple transactions for each lounge access. For example, if you access the lounge for 2 times, you are required to spend RM500 for each access (total of RM1000 for 2 times access) within 30 days before or 30 days after each lounge access.

This requirement also applicable for supplementary cardholders.


We hope the above clarifies.

That is still not clear....

Eg...you spend rm700 on 5 Oct....entered ppl 20 Oct....spend 300 on 30 oct, entered ppl again 5 Nov..... Covered?

Spend 300 5 Oct, enter 20 Oct, spend 500 10 Nov, entered again 15 Nov, spend 200 15 Dec..... covered?

please don't ask something which is tricky, of course you won't spend RM700 in one receipt, it's all accumulate.
they will calculate the total spending for the 30 days before and after for each PPL entry, so therefore you just need the total.

Tricky?....these are real life examples, and payments of a few hundreds are quite common....

But that's my point....rules that becomes "tricky" to calculate....lol

yes, it is very common to have spend several hundred, or even several thousand in one transaction.

e.g. i can spend easily more than RM1k for overseas hotel on a business trip...

Count base on total .. if oct you enter 2 times , november you enter 2 times , total spending round up must have RM2k before / after 30days .. Less than 2k then will count 1 entry to PPL you have to pay

Actually its not complicated at all. Each time enter PPL , before and or after 30 days accumulate RM 500 spending on card .

Example ,
Nov 1st enter once ( Oct 2nd to Oct 31st , or Nov 1st to Nov 30 need to spend total RM 500)

Nov 22th enter once (Oct 23 to Nov 21 or Nov 22 to Dec 22 need to spend total RM 500)

Meaning that if you enter PPL in Nov 1st once , second time enter at 22 Nov , in between Oct 2nd untill Dec 22th you have to spend accumulate RM 1,000 in total .

Less then RM 1,000 spending on your card between these date you are charged RM 105 for 1 time entry , less than RM 500 spending you will be charge RM 105 x 2

i think limeuu got the point. For those ppl who travel a lot and have mutiple access to the lounge, it will make the calculation tricky.
the 30days b4 and after are overlapping for multiple access. Is Ambank able to count which spending is already 'used up' for previous access and the balance to be used for next ?
i find it very confusing when comes to multiple access to the lounge.

for supp card accesses, does the supp need to spend RM500 or either Supp/Principal also can?
