Axis reserve worth renewal ?

[nishank]

My Axis reserve is due for renwal next month. Is it woth 50K + GST considering the fact that we only get 20K worth of miles and Accor plus membership which are worth something. I dont have Infinia though.

Stay Plus gives 2 night free, I took Sofitel Bangkok nights and can be easily valued at 30k.

@amitr29 did you use points to pay for first 2 nights?

Yes nowadays its giving 1 stay plus afaik

 

[anirban.choudhury]

So give 60 k & then get voucher to utilise it & spend more

No need to spend
Keep the card in drawer.

Other option is to pay for M&G or book luxury airport transfer directly , book hotels directly , pay for golf , spend extra 3000 while dining outside with Eazydiner,

Or best option would be to don't opt for credit cards and don't involve with luxury lifestyle.

spend extra 3000 while dining outside with Eazydiner

With Reserve you get twice a year 3000 off on some restaurants no min cap.

ED points can be redeemed against Vouchers or hotel stays

My monthly expenses are around 50-60K which includes rent expenses of 33K in this. Plus I do travel at least twice in year which amounts to 3-4L per year. I had taken this card considering 4/5 conversion ratio which effectively translated into 40K miles plus the accor plus programme with 2 complimentary nights equating arounf 20K thus redeeming the while 58K paid. I am thinking of utilising the benefit in the following ways
1. Priority pass - Since I do only 1 international trip the same can be taken care by rupay platinum debit card which provides 1 access. Same can be done for my wife.
2. Domestic acess - We have enough other cards
3. Accor plus - Not required as the prices are always discounted on booking.com although we get silver status which can be missed
4. Meet & Greet - I have used this service many times but effectively waste of money considering you have to stand in line for baage drop and again normal line for immigration
5. Golf - I have 4 mastercard which provide 1 lesson per month which seems to be enough
6. Reward points - effectively 3% this is best accross any other cards plus internationally we get 4.5% effective rate which is the best in class. General expenses on foreign currenc are around 2L per year.
7. Luxury transfers - There are a worth but yes there is Ola/Uber

Any suggestions that it would be worthwile paying the below fee ?

I dont think you need it as you already have amex plat, both give the same benefits (almost). I suggest to downgrade to magnus as you get extra points for the months that you spend heavily.

He won't renew .. this was few days before devaluation

Now this card is dead

I called them today but they have no retention offer and Mangus is to be paid. Thats why unclear what steps to take.

Get a myzone for bank offers. Axis cards are now junk. Upgrade Yes Exclusive to Marquee.

 

[nishank]

I cancelled the card as it was of no use. Don't know how to upgrade to Marquee from LTF Yes reserve

Call Yes Customer Service or Check within Iris app in "service requests" under "manage card" section.

If your Reserv card is on MC network they are not upgrading to Marquee as Marquee is on Visa network.
