Need advice: Close Airtel and switch to Axis Privilege Amex LTF?

[isatyajeet]

Hey everyone, need some advice on my Axis card portfolio.

Currently I hold:

• Axis Atlas
• Axis Airtel

I’ve got the option to close the Airtel card and get the Axis Privilege Amex variant (LTF) instead. The reason I’m considering this is because I want to keep space for a third card when Axis Olympus launches.

So my question is:
Should I switch from Airtel to Privilege Amex LTF, or just stick with Airtel until Olympus comes out?

Would love to hear from anyone who has used the Privilege Amex or has thoughts on whether it’s a better long-term keeper compared to Airtel.

i dont think axis privilege is anywhere close to axis airtel in value

I’ll keep the third slot reserved for the Olympus card. What I’m wondering is, should I cancel Airtel and get the Axis Amex Privilege (LTF) as the second card?

I was thinking the same. But I can’t seem to get any Amex card directly for some reason. This way, at least I’ll have access to Amex network discounts? Right now, I’m using the Airtel card only for Airtel Fiber payments and mobile recharges.

With all the recent drama surrounding Atlas, its future doesnt look so good. It may get devalued in the coming times. That time u might have the option of switching to other axis CC. Wait until then. Dont lose Airtel axis. It is not going to get devalued any time soon.

Airtel vs privilege
Is same as
Everest vs a small rock on the street!
You don't need privilege!

Understood. Skipping the privilege then 🙂

Makes sense. Keeping the Airtel, skipping the Privilege, Waiting for Olympus

Good decision bro.
Amex privilege is LTF , that is the only thing about it.
But Airtel is more than 100% worth the fees. If you utilise only a single month it'll be way more than its fees.
