Hi guys,
I want to ask few things here since I am very new to this cc😁
1. My annual income is near to 60k(short by around 200 before 60k) and from what i read, most platinum cc put their minimum limit for annual income of 60k and i see some of cc got better deals when u become platinum holder compare to gold/silver(normally for those earn 24k and above before 60k)
My salary will increase on yearly basis/sometimes twice a year(hopefully🤗) and early next year, it will hit 60++k..
So is it better for me to apply normal cc(not platinum) or wait next year and apply for platinum?
Currently im holding aeon gold visa cc..im a heavy user of cc, my average usage is 2k per month but i normally pay full before due date...
All CTOS&CCRIS record are clear for now🤗
2. I am a frequent traveller-travel within malaysia(twice per month) from Sabah&Sarawak to KL and oversea at least four times every year(most of the country is either ASIA or ASEAN), so i want to know which cc gives better offer in term of purchasing flight ticket?
My current aeon granted 6times entry to airport lounge but i never use it before, x tau mcm mana mau guna😣
3. I got an offer for standard chartered cc with free 25k air asia big point but the downside got annual fee😞
Should i go for this or not🤔
25k miles plus my current one entitled me to redeem 5times flight ticket from sabah sarawak to kl...
4. Can someone suggest best cc for me as im new to this one, i have read from xyzgeneration blog, the threads and bebenang at other forum as well, but im still unclear for cashback and few others.
My spending cc habit(per month 2k)
Major-flight ticket(40%)
Average-(20%)-hotel, groceries, petrol
Around 5-10% utilities bill and f&b and sometimes online shopping
Tldr:
1. my income is yet to reach 60k, should i apply for normal cc or wait it hit 60k for some platinum cc 🤔
2. Best cc for purchasing flight ticket
3. How to use premium lounge privilege
4. Whether to get one standard chartered cc or not🤔
5. Suggest me the best cc for my spending routine please

Many2 thanks in advance
