By the way, how long does it take to transfer DBS$ to Asia Miles? The staff says it takes 4 weeks AGAIN!

None of us here work at DBS. It could be anything from 2 days.....to as the bank 'promised'....4 weeks. YMMV.

You just gave the staff the excuse s/he wants to hang up the phone. You might as well own up to not packing your own suitcase at check-in. Give them your friend's AM account number and your full name next time. Make them work.

But I just charged about HK$9K today and then only registered for the 12X promo though I have already registered for the 4x year long promo. Does HSBC promo registrations kick in after 3 days or immediate ?

Guy Betsy - you just have to register during the promotion period for 12.5x.

U signed when u apply for AM MpO and it credit card. They can confiscate all the miles and suspense ur account. Actually I do agree with u that I should have the flex to transfer miles to whatever account I want but better not make it so public

Ha. Don't let me find out your MPO number then. Otherwise i can credit u 100 miles from my moneyback and get all your miles confiscated.
Seriously - the receiver MPO account getting into trouble? I can imagine all the trouble that can cause with disgruntled PAs holding their boss's MPO account hostage...puts even more pressure on bosses to keep their PAs on side. Or even a disgruntled TA for the matter (don't ever bad debt a TA who has ur MPO!)

I don't see how CX can track those credit cards I'm using to credit to others even if they know exactly who I am (if they/partners know those cards are mine they should stop the redemption). But yeah happy to move on.
