Yea, I also have 25 entries from 5x CC, used about 6-7 entries so far.
This month will use another few.
Will be cancelling 1-2 cards due to SST
(RHB promised to give me rebate after cancellation, wait for next month statement)

Yea, so far only supp card for Ambank and PBB allow PPL access, which was listed in their T&C.
Ambank, each has 5x separate entries; PBB combine with main (3x or 2x total).
Although someone did mention about RHB supp card access, but it wasn't stated clearly in T&C.

For Ambank, it is written clearly only ONE access per day (for 1 card).
If you have WMC and VI, you can use one each (in different airport / lounge).
You cannot swipe both WMC and VI at the same time (ie. bring in your friend).

If you have X-bank card and Y-bank card (where both have lounge access), I believe most of the lounges allow you to bring in friend by swiping cards from different banks (same card holder).

Tried CIMB VI, just like normal CC access to PPL. No voucher required.

Yea, CIMB preferred VI.
Is my dad, he can't rmb receiving any voucher.
I just bring him into PPL and no problem using it.

SC Priority VI lounge access is by Loungekey program
Yes, it is possible to enter those domestic lounges listed in the program

Look for those offering Priority Pass / Loungekey
Most of them belong to priority banking customers

This card is useless if you compare with its AF

Went at different time, so can't really compare them, but I think gate40 is slightly better. Been to gate40 5-6 times but only once for gate1. Gate40 usually nearer to the connecting flight.

It depends on which lounge are you going.
Usually entry level card doesn't offer lounge access.
Nearest I think is HSBC which requires 72k annual income.
If you have enough savings, enroll for a priority banking card.
Else, pledge FD for MBB VI.

Google "Ambank Signature Priority Banking Word Mastercard"
Scroll down and look for "Airport Lounge Access", read the T&C and participating lounges.
Generally, you must have a ticket to enter the lounge, once per day (although you entitled for unlimited access).
Unfortunately, Ambank has downgraded the privileges in August and I think none of the domestic lounges accepting it.

Just saw your post after replying him.
Agree that it is useless for domestic lounge.
Nevertheless I am still hesitating to terminate it for the following reasons:
1. Sub-card holder is ELIGIBLE for entering PPL (not many cards allow this nowadays)
2. Still offer quite a lot overseas lounges (of course can't compare with Priority Pass / Loungekey)
3. Unlimited access for Priority banking (anyway, I will opt for other bank instead if go for priority)

You may try that. If the branch is not helpful, you may go to Maybank card center or call CS and ask about it.

We have been discussing this topic on and off for the past few months...
Lounge access benefit is intended for card holder only, but due to some loophole, a lot of us misuse it.
Hence, bank has tighten the inspection and not allowing same person using multiple cards (from same bank) to access lounge at the same time.
I believe most of the lounge still allow multiple cards (from DIFFERENT banks) to bring in family and friends.

Only useful when you fly on MAS, seldom flying MAS nowadays (not from KL, no advantage)

Yea, that's my next target.
The only disadvantage: supp card no access
Unfortunately throw all my savings into housing loan, need to build up my savings again.

This is cool. Thanks for the advise!

If you put 250k into FD, it is very straight forward.
This one is more applicable for business with CA, where they need to ensure their account has sufficient money every month end. Of course someone can play around the loophole to earn more money.

SCB Worldmiles only applicable for international flight.
I guess he meant for local flight with Airasia.

Unless priority card, not many cards nowadays offer unlimited access.
You may get a few cards, ie 5 cards x 5 entry = 25 entries.
RHB WMC / VS are good alternative
PB VI also allows a few entries
Not sure AEON Big still available, etc

Cards from different bank usually works.
Not to use cards from same bank, ie. Ambank VI & Ambank WMC

Bro, if you are to go for priority, you may look into SC VI
Unless you need it for your supp card

Yup, ambank is good, just an alternative to look into

When you travel too often, ie 9 months not staying at home a year, you will feel differently. You may get travel phobia instead
