2 miles/S$1 for overseas charges same rate as the Citi PM VISA card! Worse is, I cannot use it to pay bills at AXS machines!! And no Asia Miles conversion!!
1 more thing: Citibank awards points to the nearest $, ignore cents. If charge S$19.90, ANZ Travel card gets: 19.9x1.4=27.86=27 miles. Citi PM AMEX card gets: 19x1.4=26.6 miles.
And if you have both the VISA and AMEX version, you Citi Miles are in separate accounts and not combined. Hence you have to pay the S$25 admin fee twice!!
Conclusion: Not a good card!! ANZ Travel card wins hands down!!
But ANZ service is lousy. I paid for the annual fee and 2 statements already still hav not shown my bonus point.
This card is good to be used in China. No need to worry about local currency.
I will get this card. What is the fastest way to get it
