It is better to get a AE SPG card than to transfer from MR to SPG. Think you lost about 2/3 of your MR points (1000 MR points to 333 SPG points) Wonder if you can have your account transfer to another country and do the points transfer and transfer the account back to US</font>
No.
Can't transfer like airline programmes. You basically have to 'apply' for a new card in the country where you're in. Credit approvals etc have to be taken into consideration.
