[Prem03]

Yeah no Visa variant. On MC and Amex networks.

Which one is better?
Any difference in lounge list?

Amex Acceptability issues. So obviously MC is better.

Visa would’ve been better.

I got to know for the first time that even EPM Amex too is an option. I never saw this variant in MITC doc nor was the choice was given to me.

Heard that It will be there while applying. Option to chose from Amex/MC.

What happens if we use add on

Kuch galat logo to epm mila hai aur abhi bhi mile raha hai.

Jinko epm chahiye/zarurat hai, unhe bank thenga dikha raha hai.

Icici bolta hai, gali do mujhe ji bharr bharr..issi bahane log yaad karte rahte hai 😂😂

What do you mean by galat log?

I don’t think so. Look at the lounge list, it explicitly specifies EPM Mastercard. Amex isn’t even mentioned anywhere.

Ignore. He doesn’t even know EPM holders’ eligibility and their relationships with the bank. Banks aren’t fools, they know what they are offering and to whom else everyone would have had it by now. If bank has offered you the card you were absolutely eligible.

Interesting but how do you know

Since Emerald plastic comes in Amex, I guess that's why the same option they are providing for EPM.

 

[abhiaj_geek]

Have these workarounds for Amazon pay voucher 10k limitation been discussed or tried?

1. What if we use person A’s epm in B’s ishop portal?
2. Suppose B has an add on epm, primary being A. What if we use B’s add on epm on B’s ishop portal?

Does A get the points in any of the above case?

Why would you even consider Amex tho? Questionable acceptance

Just trying to understand if it’s even offered, never said I would accept it if offered

Meaning, wrong people, who doesnt even need this card / never asked for it. I dont even mean you or anyone from this forum. I did not read your posts / comments, and have no idea what your back story is.

I just typed a statement in a general sense.
