If every CC holder becomes a TF community member and redeems the rewards to get the maximum value out of them, then I doubt how long the banks can afford to offer these rewards on CC spends.. It would be like Mixed basket case scenario mostly ....otherwise the industry can't survive..You are correct. while that is true. I think this guy is losing money because there is lack of knowledge on benefits
From what I know this guy travels a lot and stays in 5 start properties. he also mentioned he goes on an international trips with his family every 1.5 years or so ..
and I can't ask how much this guys spends. so I just asked what did you buy with points last time and he said he spent about 2L + points to buy an Air conditioner in April. and those points were accumulated over 5-6 month period.
I was thinking in my mind. I would've had one luxury week in some Accor property with those points.
But it is what is
Maybe in the time, he will spend to save that money, he can earn more than double of that😂.You are correct. while that is true. I think this guy is losing money because there is lack of knowledge on benefits

They will deposit 10L to get the transfer rate they want and then after they do it they will withdraw the 10L and close magnus as well or spend enough to get it waived off or keep the card as a paid card if they find it lucrative.But why exclude the people who leave 10L in SA from getting an LTF Magnus? Either way when they withdraw the amount, they will get charged for the card by default. Just like with Burgandy Private CC.

Yes, of course..These devaluations on cards are only because of forums like ours, banks were so happy with people having limited knowledge of points redemption. Banks are internally crying and devaluing cards these sooner.
Agreed! A very small group of people would actually need to maintain that kind of liquidity. Without the proper utility, it's as good as burning it. I can't get myself to justify leaving 10L in an account with strings attached just for a card that can be devalued again any day.They will deposit 10L to get the transfer rate they want and then after they do it they will withdraw the 10L and close magnus as well or spend enough to get it waived off or keep the card as a paid card if they find it lucrative.
Only someone stupid would keep his money at 3% interest rate when liquid funds and overnight funds also offer better returns that that
How is it stupid if someone gets says 14.4lk (accor 8lk miles transfer) value out of the card by putting in 10lk as deposit?They will deposit 10L to get the transfer rate they want and then after they do it they will withdraw the 10L and close magnus as well or spend enough to get it waived off or keep the card as a paid card if they find it lucrative.

Care to explain the math behind 14.4LK pointsHow is it stupid if someone gets says 14.4lk (accor 8lk miles transfer) value out of the card by putting in 10lk as deposit?
It's not about thr 3% return It's about the 144% return over 10lk..
Plus 10lk is a small price to pay (keep in acc) to avoid future devaluation as majority will leave
10lk points = 8lk accor miles = 14.4lk Rupees.Care to explain the math behind 14.4LK points
how did you get 10LK points?10lk points = 8lk accor miles = 14.4lk Rupees.
On spends? That's the max cap for burgundy.how did you get 10LK points?
isnt the capping of 5L ?On spends? That's the max cap for burgundy.
Not for Burgundy. For Burgundy it's 10lk.isnt the capping of 5L ?
for earning 10L points you would be spending close to 1.6 crs in a year.Not for Burgundy. For Burgundy it's 10lk.
Also, someone spending 1.6cr would not be reading this thread 😆🤣also someone spending that much would have definitely shifted to something like amex platinum assuming he is a credit card reward geek
true that lolAlso, someone spending 1.6cr would not be reading this thread 😆🤣

1.6cr=> ~13lakhs spends per month, that itself makes the card free... wont the guy have burgundy private or reserve then?
your calculations are just like your comments, baseless.for earning 10L points you would be spending close to 1.6 crs in a year.
someone who spends that much wouldn't care to keep 10L liquid in a bank
he would look to maximize returns
