@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.

 

[DaDarkkNight]

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.

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

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
