YES FIRST Exclusive Credit Card - How to make the best use of it

[rj_arora]

Yes Bank RM persuaded my uncle to go for YES FIRST Exclusive Credit Card (Annual Fee: 999 + GST). He received the card today, with 5L limit. Now, he is wondering how to make the best use of the card and get at least the annual fees worth out of it. Can anyone please help here? Thank you!

Only benefit I like about this card is unlimited priority pass for both main and addon members.
However it can only be used in international airports. For domestic you only use card itself with 3 free visit per quarter.
Also if by mistake you used that priority pass in domestic airport then 27usd +gst would be charged.
I hold this card LTF without any serious relationship with yes(i have zero balance saving account with them).
So better ask the RM to make it free.

He doesn't have an account with them. An executive literally begged my uncle to go for this.
Also, how to get a priority pass? It was not included in the kit.
And is there any accelerated rewards portal as well, similar to HDFC smart buy?

If you have got the VISA variant, the card itself can be used to access International lounge using its loungekey program.
In case you have received the MC variant, you can request for the PP by calling the customer care. It would be delivered to the same address.

Any idea how to upgrade Yes Prosperity Edge to Yes First Exclusive?

It is MC. Do I need to call Yes Bank customer care, to send PP?

Yeah you can request the PP over call or email.

Yeah you can request the PP over call or email.

Isn't there some form as well, that you fill and mail?

Same question.

No form needed, just call or email them. They'll take the request and send you the pp card.

Any idea about upgrading card from Prosperity Edge to First Exclusive?

You ll auto upgrade to preferred first.
For exclusive call support they ll ask you to mail income docs.

Let's see. Haven't really used the card at all since I got it. The current one is LTF anyway, so I guess I will hold on.
