Help with amex

[captswatisingh]

My amex platinum is due for renewal , their retention this year isn't that great just about 20,000 taj vouchers even when the spend has been good (acc to me ofcourse). I don't want to give up my points and thinking to take a diff amex under the same membership. Any suggestions ?

If you spend 4L in a year or more, Plat Travel will get you the highest rewards. 40K MR points + 10K Taj Voucher.

If you spend 20K or so in a month, get the MRCC card for the highest rewards! 2K MR points every month.

Since you're already an Amex member, there are high chances you won't even be asked for any income docs and approved pretty fast!

Feel free to DM me if you have any questions!

Thanks a lot. Apparently for now I can only go down 1 step down and I get all my points transferred into the reserve card.

yes.. 20k was too low.. i cncld.. trfd all points to bonvoy before that

Doing the same that's the best value you can get. They offered me to get reserve card and all my points would be transfered there as I have some vouchers pending.

Is this above the 10k taj voucher for members birthday ?

 

[captswatisingh]

Yes, as retention bonus.

30k seems okay for a frequent traveller but Amex in india don’t outrightly give benefits for the fee like in the U.S . Hope they change their model soon.

they reduced amz. gv limit, their lounge in Delhi was shut for months, they still have a huge acceptance issue, and they are offering the world for new application.. in perspective 20k is not reasonable

In US they give a lot more with the card to name a few Hulu subscription un until last year amazon membership, delta prime membership so you get priority on all your flights across delta network, in the states the list of fine hotels is never ending. Someone who paid a fee of 70k the first year and next year even after spending on the card an exemplary amount you give retention as 20k taj voucher is a shame.

We need the AMEX sales guys to read this thread and pass some feedback.
