Standard chartered Visa infinite card

[fun4life]

Usually got how many miles to pay the annual fee?

I initially applied this card for the priority pass access which was very generous. Given covid, I literally have no use for this card now.

It’s quite interesting to see SCB being one of the main banks in Singapore have such little investment in their retail/wealth management offerings.

Even their private bank is one of the most mediocre in Singapore. Wonder what’s their strength in the Asian market. Commercial banking?

Haha.. They are the first bank to be named by MAS as "Significantly Rooted Foreign Bank" (SRFB) just last week.

Look at how badly they bombed their X Card. It's more probable that their cards division is poorly led.

Got anybody going to pay the annual fee to keep the card? SCB only offers me 20K miles for the annual fee.

It's already 1 year since your post, so did you renew? I still choose to pay the fee and got the 20k miles hahaha

I confirm no way of cancellation after speaking with RM. 2021 spend was $140K. RM mock me say even $500K spenders never get waiver

Lol! Your visa infinite is the brown or the blue (priority) version?
Cancel lo. There is no such thing as cannot cancel. Actually no big deal. Card just merry go round. Lol! I am a priority banking customer but I don’t really bother with this card application. Actually my favourite card bundle is Amex + grab for double rewards. Sibei song! Covid19 pandemic shows nothing is better than cash rebates. I hope Apple credit card will come to SG. I will kneel down to them.

You already can achieve 2.5% with HSBC Advance + EGA account on almost everything. Higher than Apple's 2% in the US.

It is the brown one, the one that has ~$600 for annual fees.
Kept the card as I use it as my primary miles card and have a lot of miles parked inside liao.

If i recall correctly, after you apply for the credit card a sms will be sent to you with an activation code. then you need to head to standard charter website under the PBVI to activate your priority pass membership. The sms may take a few days to come though..

nowdays PP membership only comes with digital member no physical cards.
At least for me, Citi abd DBS Priority pass now only comes with digital memberships, need to use the PP app.

SCB still sends physical PP Card membership

yah, not all CC / PP offer digital

your digital Citi & DBS PP are 2 separate "accounts" right ? ie not 1 PP account showing both PP cards
