Will there be again a 20% "discount" in points conversion
 
Last year or the year before there was a special deal where you could get 20% more ELAL points when converting credit card programme points.

Does anyone know if this is going to be repeated?

Cheers!

Just waiting for this promo to arrive before I dump the AMEX I got a few years ago in some LY Gold promo.

Why?

I don't use the AMEX much and don't want to pay the annual fee. I may then apply for one through my workplace which will give me some benefits which I am not getting on this one. So I want to cash in the points to LY points before canceling the card.

I see. Well I'm also waiting for the promotion but no plans to rid myself of the card.

Cheers!

I do believe that Amex allows you to close a card and keep you points

Maybe there is additional once a year with Amex/Diners (or maybe only for abroad cards), but in general, Once a year for all major credit cards in Israel.

Thanks,
