The usage on the Miles and More card has fetched you only Lufthansa miles till date and when you redeemed the miles you needed to bear the tax component by paying in cash, but henceforth whenever you redeem the world miles for any airlines all across the Globe ,the base and tax component would be sufficed by the earned miles and you don’t need to shell out any cash for the tax component.
INDUSIND BANK SIGNATURE WITH WORLD MILES CARD – THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER……………!!!
Onetime Joining Fee: INR 7500 (+tax)
Welcome Gift: 4 Jet Airways All India Tickets (Base Fare totally waved off, 100% transferable)
Annual & Renewal Charges: Zero
Every INR 100 Spend = 3 Miles
3 Reward Points = 3 World Miles (You can redeem your Miles on any National/International Airlines)
The IndusInd offers seems bogus. The base fare is free on 4 tickets. Who knows what the hidden details are (availability etc). Base fare in any case excludes hefty "fuel surcharges".
I just got a call from some guy offering me 10 Jet tix - I said no, couldn't care less - I'd rather have LH miles to the end, until the other dimwits from Axis actually show up to take the application from me, even as 3 different teams appear to be targeting me!!
Seems like the ICICI-Jet fiasco once again...
Welcome to India.
Also, not sure if they can transfer to any other FF program - the guy who called told me Jet only...but who really knows - or cares...
