Citibank Premier Miles Card
Guys,
since this card seems to be our savior for the time being, I thought it would be better to start another thread on this one. Would request Babu to move all the posts from the other JACC thread to here on the Premier Miles card. Here is my review to start with: http://boardingarea.com/blogs/livefr...s-credit-card/ Plus, I mentioned a rumored promo ... which I got a confirmation on today. So, for all international spend and hotel spend, for 1st june - 30th sep 2012, 10 premier miles per 100 rs. is now confirmed. I am just waiting to swipe my card away ;) |

Citibank PM Visa card is being offered as a "Visa Signature" card. This, I guess is 1 level up from Platinum. A quick google tells me that Signaure cards comes with no pre-set credit limit (that is, credit limit is not disclosed to customer), and an exclusive service desk.
However, there are warnings that a Visa Signature card can adversly affect credit rating of an individual (CIBIL rating in case of India). I am not sure of the reasons. It looks like Visa signature may not be a good choice unless one is a high spender. |

It looks like Visa signature may not be a good choice unless one is a high spender. 1. Most of the banks does not report the data properly - specially the credit limit. ICICI & Citi has not reported the credit limit and max credit. HSBC & SCB has reported all the data. 2. My Current JACC Card is not even reported. (It was converted from JACC Titanium, for which some data is available. 3. Citi has not done a credit check while converting my JACC Titanium to JACC Platinum. The Mobile / Utility bills are not reported (Compared to US). Having my JACC Platinum reported will certainly improve my credit score by 20-30 Points (High Limit, less then 20% Spend, On-time payment, primary card for all purchases). But it's not reported. may be when the new card is issued, Citi will start reporting. |
so the premier miles card now only has the option of transferring miles to flying returns....gone are the days when you could transfer to jet & kingfisher....

Now you cant book jet airways tickets on Premier miles website. This is whate Citibank is asking us to do now
Use your Citibank PremierMiles Credit Card to book your preferred flight on Jet Airways through their website, ticketing counter or service center. Call Citibank on below numbers and get your Jet Airways ticket refunded by redeeming miles. Miles will be debited for these transactions at a value of 1 Mile = Rs. 0.50. (A ticket purchase of Rs 1000 would cost you 2000 Miles.) This option is only valid for customers who have enough Miles to cover the entire ticket amount. The refund can be processed for transactions that are settled and reflect in billed or unbilled status. The refund will reflect in your card account within 7 days from the request received. This refund will be valid for entire ticket amount including taxes Looks like the battle is getting hotter |
