This card can be used to access Tower Club restaurants.
Does anyone know if this card can also access the gym of Tower Club?

On the topic of plat, anyone familiar with Amex in UK? Is the plat worth the £450 AF?

noticed that this card doesn't really have much buzz around it- can I check if you guys here actually pay for the AF for the plat reserve (first year/subsequent years)? I just got the non-reserve plat card with an AF waiver under some supposed promo (not sure how true that is) and was wondering if it also applied to the reserve

Increasing to 575 from next month. Depends on which benefits are important to you.
Ouch... Moving to UK for work but seems like the miles/benefits game are much worst off compared to Singapore.

Able to share which cards do you use over there?

Yep, quite bad at UK with the interchange fee cap. Sign up bonuses are better but earn rates are ridiculously low. Cash back sites like top cash back and Quidco are popular. One has to get creative if they want to continue the miles game.

Before you move, get as many Sg cards as possible - especially both visa and MC versions of citi rewards. You get 4mpd on all spend on Amazon. I find Amazon better in UK as they do free delivery else you’ll have to roam around trying to find the best deal in a brick and mortar shop. Fx fee is a dampener, but 4mpd is better than nothing.
