Applied it early last year by submitted my salary+bonus and got approved, so you can give it a try.
So far I know only RHB is very strict on the salary requirements, reject me twice for a 80k card while I got a 100k card approved from other bank doh.gif

The cap is only applicable to local spend?

I will explore Enrich money too smile.gif

Too bad can't use CC to reload EnrichMoney

A missed chance tbh, I think if they charge 1% or less fees similar to other e-wallets

I'm sure there are plenty takers and use it to boost their enrich status

Increase MAS domestic flight fare price then sure less people use the lounge, but then it will get complain by local and blame minister not doing job laugh.gif
I believe international lounge suppose less people compare to domestic one.

Looking at their reliability record

On time performance

And now even safety concerns

Give me free silver status I also won't fly with them if I don't have to

Don't get blinded by the status just because you fly twice a year to < 4 hours zones

You mean gold/platinum? Silver don't really have much useful benefits so pretty useless one.
I have flights more than hundreds times with different airlines including MAS, only experienced few times where the flight delay more than 1 hour and worse case is 4 hours by Batik, guess if one is really that bad luck then he/she is destined to face it.

Nah, its silver, because I was offered fast track to it which I declined awhile back

Gold and platinum have access to MAS / one world lounge and check in privileges which is nice but then again with their management I am concerned with the safety of the flights

If you read the news you would find out that 60+ out of 400+ engineers resigned since this year

That's 15% attrition with some post citing that stocks and parts are not given sufficient funding

This is despite the hundreds of millions in profit

And subsequently you see many flights being turned back for "technical" issues

How sure are we then that the flights and planes are properly maintained?

I don't think lying to bank is a good strategy here. They can tell right away the txns are made with NFC instead of magstripe or manual entries.

Yup agreed. Its relatively easy to check what kind of transactions made via which channel at which specific location.

Less than 2 minutes to access from main interface by customer service, just need your card or IC details.

I asked this question yesterday, which travel insurance is this. tongue.gif

I think Generali / MSIG have as well, with not too expensive premium too.

Looks like the streak or cycle of downgrading benefits, adding exclusions, removing inclusions, higher spending requirements are kicking in..

Which bank will now buck the trend and improve on their benefits and launch new cards?
