2) 400k hkd
dahsing for 3 mths ish, 20000 avios + 4000 for cc
there is a referal program for both of above banking products...
i dont think we have a banking product thread, right?
Thought this was expensive still (the SCB AM miles promo)
Essentially you can get ~2.6% for 1 yr USD fixed DD = US$2.6k for a US$100k deposit opportunity cost
So US$2.6k => 240k AM (i.e. 1.08c per mile)... a little on the high side in my view
