DCB Best Reward Points Redemption for Diners Club Black

[nivek]

Hello guys,

With the devaluation of ACCOR points conversion (2:1), what do you suggest is the best value for money redemption option for the reward points accrued post January? Accor used to give approx 1.8 Rupees per 1 RP, is there any other method which gives >1 Rupee value per RP? I was planning to use the smartbuy Flight/Hotel redemption (1 RP = 1 Rupee) if not.

Yes that's the choice I am considering right now. But is there a better option which gives a value of >1 Rupee for RP?

When did this devaluation happen? It still shows as 1:1 on the website.

It will be applicable from 15th January. Will be 2:1 instead of 1:1. So if you want to transfer, you can still do it till 14th Jan.

Krisflyer is a decent option or else use it to book revenue tickets using Smartbuy.

On netbanking portal, select redeem points. You'll find option there for Krisflyer and Vistara transfer. Basically it's on the older smartbuy portal.
