@BestBanker Any new transfer partners coming across the board? ITC and Accor would be fantastic! And Vistara would be replaced by Flying Returns soon too I guess.

 

[the_dark_knight]

Most probably Netflix.

If it's Netflix premium, many would definitely go for this card upgrade option

Definitely, that would be a more popular reward than most hotel chain gold memberships lol.

That would be way too chindi for Amex to tie-up with.
Considering the brands they have tied up with in the past, Netflix should match their standards, anything else could be a let down.

Yes, that will be peanut for the fees they charge!

I'm pretty sure they'll hike it from 60k to 70k and Netflix 4K Ultra HD plan is 7.8k annually (inclusive of GST)

Hope they get Accor as transfer parter.

But if MR points against joining fee (upgrade offer) are increased significantly too, then it will be a good deal

 

[vikramsrit]

I'll renew my Plat charge if Accor is introduced as a transfer partner

If all of you like Accor so much, why don't you go for Axis Atlas?
Why hope for something that is quite unlikely?

American express refused to have Accor as a transfer partner for so many years. Why?
Go figure!

Analyse and figure out!

I already have M4B which is my primary card for most purchases. I still have decent enough spendings on my plat charge + plat travel + MRCC trifecta.

You need to replace Platinum charge with gold charge
It is much better value (10.71% return) even after devaluation yesterday

1st year with 135K MR points was a no-brainer. I make good use of Marriott Elite Gold Status along with Taj Epicure. There are also some pretty significant purchases on RewardXcelerator portal which were a good value back.
But for 2nd year, I will need to evaluate. I'm sitting on a pretty huge pile of MR points which I don't want to transfer to Marriott so hoping Accor comes in as a transfer partner

Why don't you want to transfer to Marriott ?
all the influencers claim that Marriott is the best transfer partner
